Thank you, Madam Chair. So Madam Chair, that is, I think, probably the critical decision that needs to be made at the steering committee. And so, again, I suspect the Member knows, but for the public, there's a steering committee that is composed of the signatories to the original MOU, aside from the Salt River, who at the present moment have opted to not participate although are certainly welcome back, and that the steering committee is composed as the leadership and then the working group is composed of the officers or officials from GNWT as well along with those other governments. And that is part of my struggle with -- I don't disagree that the public has the opportunity in a territorial election to state their preference for a future economy, for energy resilience, for how we go about building big projects. But we are in a situation where if this project is going to be done differently and done right and done well and not get into a situation of, you know, extended blockages or concerns amongst the governments on whose traditional lands the project would be, doing it through the MOU and the steering committee process is taking some time. That is, back to the original question, it is precisely that. It's to ask when -- you know what that routing would be. We're down to a couple of choices. And with that in hand, it's deciding what that might look like in terms of an agreement between governments. Thank you.
