Thank you, Mr. Chair. I just want to make it quite clear. This position that is in Yellowknife, it is panterritorial. It is not just fish. It is agriculture, and it does fur, so it does a number of things. I guess when we come back to the first page and, when we close off on ITI at the end of all this, you will see the layout and how we have redirected the supports around some of this stuff. That is the reason that job is in Yellowknife. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Yes, thank you, Mr. Chair. Actually, the last time I was home, the superintendent told me about Tsiigehtchic getting hold of them and wanted to know a little bit about doing a commercial fishery in Tsiigehtchic. I think he has actually said that he would probably go up there and have a discussion with them on how they can move that initiative forward. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. I guess to get right to the crux of his question, we're having a hard look at the 51 per cent ownership portion of BIP and we're having a look at it and seeing if anything can be done at all. We are having a look at it. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. If I read this correct, amount rebate approved that was spent was $94,000, and the film rebate program resulted in $344,000 in spending in the NWT, so it would be good value for money. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. That would be serviced out of the Hay River office. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. The sheet that I seen was just in draft form, so I don't think we have actually sent them out and shared them with everybody yet. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. This is the exact type of thing that the film sector is looking at. We would encourage the Member to have him get hold of the Northwest Territories Film Commission and see what kind of support that they can help him with. I know there is more than just money there. There is a lot of mentorship in the sort of things that are happening there.

I have had an opportunity to talk to a number of people in the film industry in the Northwest Territories, and everything I have heard has always been positive. People have come up to me and thanked us for the initiative of bringing...

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I, too, would like to welcome all of the participants of the Daughters of the Vote, in particular Kiera Boulanger-Rowe from Hay River South who also participated in the Hay River session, I believe, for getting women into politics.

I, too, would like to also recognize Jane Groenewegen, Sandy Lee, and Tony Whitford for all the work they've done, and I'm going to take this opportunity to wish my wife happy Valentine's Day.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. The particular ferry, the Louis Cardinal ferry, is a short-trip, fresh water vessel. They tend to operate for many years. Right across the country, anything that is operating in fresh water tends to get 60-plus years of operation out of it. The other side of that vessel, though, is the mechanical side of it and the hull maintenance. Those things have a much shorter maintenance life, but we have a scheduled maintenance plan, when to undertake those required rehabilitations, and we continue to do so.

He asked another question. There were actually two questions in there...

I would have to get more details from the Member on what he is asking.
