Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Those are the conversations, that is the discussions I will be bringing to the First Ministers meeting -- or to the Premiers meeting this week. It's also why we do have a -- I believe it's called a plan in place for which fuel is more expensive that we can actually look at compensating. So if necessary, those things will be looked at within the government. But at this point, it's a matter of finding out what we're dealing with, talking to the Premiers across Canada. This isn't an issue just for the NWT; it's all of Canada is facing this issue and so I am expecting that the federal government will be expected to provide some assistance as well. But I do know that the heating fuel in the territory is extreme and we do need to make sure that our residents have the ability to heat their homes. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
