Slash Finance. It is a pickle, Mr. Speaker, thank you. So first of all, Mr. Speaker, the challenges that are being faced in the Northwest Territories Power Corporation that are certainly impacting the Department of Finance are not exclusively related to cost overages relating to different projects. There's a significant amount of impact from low water which is a situation entirely outside of my control or really that of anyone else in this House. We have been in a situation where the Snare plant has been burning a significant amount of diesel and in a situation where during -- because of the overhaul, the amount of diesel being burned down in the south is being burned at a rate that is much higher with the cost volatility of diesel since COVID. So, again, there's -- fully, I don't have the numbers in front of me right now but it's a significant amount that is entirely related to that effect right there. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
