Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, I'm going to direct my questions to the Premier and if she wants to redirect them, I'm fine with that.

Yesterday, Alberta put a pause on collection of provincial fuel tax to help consumers shocked by high prices. I would like to let the Premier know that my community is shocked in our community by the gas prices. It's $2.30 for a litre for gas and $2.40 for diesel right now.

Can the Minister tell us if there's any conversation re the NWT pausing any fuel tax to aid in this shock to my community or any of the other residents of the Northwest Territories? Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
