Thank you, Mr. Dent. Mr. Villeneuve.
Thank you, Mr. Pokiak. Mr. Dent.
Agreed. Thank you. Shall we proceed with the opening remarks from the Minister of Education, Culture and Employment?
Thank you, Mr. Dent. Mr. Villeneuve.
Thank you, Mr. Pokiak. Mr. Dent.
Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, the tax initiatives that were referred to in the budget address by the Minister have sort of grabbed the attention of the public here, and that is why we are getting questioned about it and it will be necessary to talk to people about this. So thank you for that explanation and I think that definitely does put it in context that this is probably not a short-term thing. I think it will generate a lot of response from the public and I am hoping that the Minister will make himself or his officials available when we return to our constituencies to get out...
Thank you, Mr. Dent. Next on the list I have Mr. Villeneuve.
Thank you, Mr. Pokiak. Mr. Dent.
Thank you, Mr. Speaker. So, Mr. Speaker, when we talk about resource royalties comprising a part of our revenues, is the Minister saying that when we get those that those are going to be on top of what we already get from Ottawa, or isn’t that just going to diminish what we get in the form of other revenue from the federal transfer? Thank you.
Thank you, Mr. Dent. Mr. Delorey.
