One of the items on there is the purchase of the franchise for Hay River so that it goes back into NTPC. Right? It comes under the auspices of NTPC. Is it precedent that we are paying for a $16-million purchase for a municipality? I mean, I am just wondering if we are starting to set a precedent here. You are doing this. Northlands Utilities is partly owned by all the Aboriginal groups of the Northwest Territories, and the only reason why they are doing this is because they say the cost of power is going to be less. We all know that is not going to happen. Then Hay River is buying it, and you guys are buying this. Then the other part of the factor is, and I know this for a fact because I used to sit on this board, that all the legal fees were paid by the Government of the Northwest Territories to fight these Aboriginal groups, all the Aboriginal groups in the Northwest Territories, in court, and all those legal fees were paid by the Government of the Northwest Territories. Am I right?
