Mahsi, Madam Chair. My subject is the Senior Home Heating Subsidy. First of all, I just want to thank the department for looking after the heating supply for our seniors in my community and in the NWT. It's very much appreciated. I had a wood supplier in my community. I didn't get all of the information out of him, but he was citing that he may get out of the business because one of the problems that he was citing is that it was taking too long to get paid. These guys are just small businesses. Especially if you are in the wood business, it's very, very tough. I am just wondering if you know what is the length it takes before they get paid and whether we can shorten it to maybe a day or so or if the cheque can be cut right in the office, same as for our IA clients? Mahsi.
