Thank you. That's great to hear. So how are you working with industry on specific needs targeted to various NWT regions on that? Thank you.

Thank you. I'll go to the Minister.

Okay, thank you. I'll go to the Member from Great Slave.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. Thank you for that clarification. That jives a little bit better in my mind so that is good to hear.

I am curious, following up on the questions from my colleague from Frame Lake around the economic vision and sort of visionary pieces. Could additional information be provided on the pan-territorial resources investment marketing initiative and how that relates to the economic vision that work is being done? Thank you, Mr. Chair

Thank you. I'll go to the Minister.

Thank you very much, Mr. Chair. So, Mr. Chair, that initiative is focused on really investment attraction for critical minerals. This past week, on Sunday night at PDAC in Toronto, we were able to host an event in conjunction with Nunavut and the Yukon, and it was incredibly well attended by both politicians, investment individuals, and business owners. And so we hope to continue to build off that momentum. Thank you.

Thank you. I'll go to the Member from Great Slave.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. Great to hear. And also in your business plan, I believe under economy because that's your largest section, which makes sense, we're speaking about implementing actions under the priorities for critical minerals in the NWT. How is that work going along? Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thank you. I'll go to the Minister.

Thank you very much, Mr. Chair. So, Mr. Chair, certainly we are working on everything to do with critical minerals on basically a daily basis within the department, especially this time of year. I've just come off of a bit of a whirlwind of critical mineral events, both in Vancouver and Toronto. We continue to advance critical mineral work on all fronts, including in our geoscience database building, in our investment attraction, in making sure that we're informing the world about all the projects that are on the go here in the Northwest Territories. And we also have our Northwest Territories geological survey that is consistently successfully leveraging money from federal funding pots, and they do just incredible work and I can't toot their horn enough. So thank you.

Thank you. I'll go to the Member from Great Slave.

I don't know how to respond to toot your horn.

You don't have a clever pun?

I don't. I'm really tired today, Mr. Chair. But, you know, I appreciate that. Maybe a more detailed breakdown of what actions are completed and what are -- were still outstanding would be great to share with Members. Thanks, Mr. Chair.

Thank you. I'll go to the Minister.

Thank you very much, Mr. Chair. Mr. Chair, if possible, one of the things that I'm going to do today is swap out different staff when we get to different sections and so maybe we can come back around to that when we get to the petroleum -- minerals and petroleum resources section of the main estimates today. Thank you.

Thank you. I'll go to the Member from Great Slave.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. Nothing further.

Thank you. Is there any more questions from Members? Seeing none, no further questions, please turn to page 235.

Industry, Tourism and Investment, corporate operation, operations expenditure summary, 2025-2026 Main Estimates, $10,243,000. Does committee agree?

Thank you. Go down to economic diversification and business support beginning on page 237 with information items on page 242. Are there any questions? I'm going to go to the Member from Frame Lake.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. Mr. Chair, my first question -- I know it was a small item, but I note that the advancing the knowledge economy item is removed this year. I just want to know what have we lost there, if the Minister can help us understand it better. Thank you.

Thank you. I'll go to the Minister.
