Thank you, Madam Chair. Madam Chair, I would suggest that asking about the contingency plans for GNWT's, and really the NWT's energy security, is probably a reasonable question for every community in the Northwest Territories. I don't know that there's anything particularly more or less urgent here. You know, the current plant does still have life. It is still functional in that regard. It is at least at the planning stage to move forward for a more secure long term and sustainable location. We, you know, again are taking that message to the federal government because any projects that we had planned, in this case interrupted by a flood, you know, now the cost of everything have gone up quite significantly. So, you know, the backup plan is to get this plan moving and to make some decisions so that it can be relocated in a way that makes sense to use the assets that are there if possible and, if not, to have an estimate that is current so that that can be brought back here to determine if that's where we want to go. Thank you.
