Thank you, Madam Chair. Just a comment that I would be supportive. The BDIC can't necessarily take on that money, but the GNWT can. If there is some way to make sure those loan deferrals happen, it has to happen through the GNWT, and I am happy to see that. I am very eagerly awaiting the film policy, and I have spoken previously about some sort of film producers' incentive policy. My concerns right now with the film industry rebate program is that I'm not sure it's necessarily convincing anyone to come here. It's a good program, and it does encourage a little bit of northern labour. The fact that it's kind of after-the-fact makes it a little cheaper to make a film in the NWT. With $100,000, it's not all that much cheaper. We kind of got an answer to this before, but are there any plans to have a film producers' incentive program or to rework this program? If so, how much money could we expect to see? Thank you, Madam Chair.
