Thanks, Madam Chair. Yeah, I support this recommendation as well. And I just want to highlight the recommendation calls for the Public Utilities Board to work with the two utilities here. You know, I don't know exactly what the Public Utilities Board does, but as I understand it, the Minister responsible for the Public Utilities Board or Cabinet could issuing binding policy direction to set up this crisis fund. And I think that's something that I'd want my colleagues across the way to think about. And of course, you're going to respond to this if it passes, and -- but you have the ability to issue that binding policy direction.

The concept of this is really not that much different than 911, you know, in that people do pay an extra bit on your phone bills to support 911. And this would help people that need help.

So the other example I would use is, at least in Yellowknife, we pay a little surcharge on our water bills so that if there's a break between the foundation of your home and the main line in the middle of the street, it gets covered. There's a deductible amount but it's a similar kind of concept.

So this is not breaking new ground by any measure, even here in the Northwest Territories. And also, again, I want to urge my Cabinet colleagues to consider issuing binding policy direction on this when it passes. Thanks, Madam Chair.
