Thank you, Mr. Chair. We were able to get a couple of exemptions when we proposed our approach to the federal government. Obviously, a big one would be aviation, because our main mode of transportation up here is aviation. The second one, which I think will be a great benefit to folks in the Northwest Territories is the heating fuel, which is rebated at the point of purchase. I think that is huge, especially for the climate that we live in. Sometimes when you live in the Northwest Territories and you live in bigger centres, you are kind of out of touch with the reality of living in some of the smaller communities and the challenges that that proposes. They are the ones that would use the most heating fuel.
To the Member's question, though, that heating fuel rebate will also apply to the municipalities. Their heating fuel purchases would be rebated at the point of purchase. We have not considered the Yukon's model, and I am not even aware of exactly what that model is, but ours is at the point of purchase, which is a big cost factor for a lot of our municipal governments, especially in the colder climates, that they spend on heating fuel. We were able to propose that in our approach to Canada, and they accepted that. Thank you, Mr. Chair.
