Thank you, Madam Chair. It's funny because, as you say that to me, I have contractors in different areas of the territory that tell me, "Stop breaking down contracts. I don't want bid on just providing a loader." Again, a very complex situation, which I think we do have to look at as a case-by-case situation. I was joking with someone earlier that it would be easier if the all the contractors would just get together and come to me with all the portions of the project that they have agreed upon to work on, but that is not going to happen. I do recognize that that is a function of what my department needs to do, is taking at a realistic look at the capacities within a region and seeing, okay, if we carve out certain parts of this project, we will get more companies working, but it will have to be, I believe, project by project. We can't make a statement overall that we are going to have one guy providing the loader, one guy providing the pickup truck. Sorry, I know you are not talking to that degree, but definitely we will take that back because one of the things that is happening is we do have large infrastructure projects coming that do need to have a certain calibre or certain types of skill sets that we do not have in the Northwest Territories.
This is again part of that entire procurement review that we are starting, underway between the departments. It's part of the mandates of the 19th Assembly, was to maximize benefits to northern business, Indigenous business. We are looking at Indigenous procurement options and what we can do now to ensure that more Northerners are working because all of the companies are coming to me, saying, "We don't want a handout. We don't want a wage. We want work." So that is a message that is resonating really loudly with me and I am taking back to my departments. Thank you, Madam Chair
