Thanks, Madam Chair. We have to make sure that this is going to include training and apprenticeships, as well. This was something that the Federation of Labour, in the last Assembly, past president raised with the Regular MLAs. I think she even approached some Members of Cabinet about this. These big projects are opportunities for us to build in training and apprenticeship requirements, as well. I don't know if that was done on the Tlicho All-Season Road. It certainly didn't happen with Stanton, because I am playing hockey with guys who are being flown up from Ontario to work at that project. That was ridiculous, without any northern requirements for training and apprenticeships. How are we going to change that on the big projects moving forward? Thanks, Madam Chair.
