Thank you, Mr. Chair.
One thing occurs to me, and I think we should probably be asking ourselves this question, but I'm curious to see if the department deals with it as well. Do you systematically sit down and ask yourself what the impediments are and what we have to work on? If you haven't, why not?
If you have, what are the three or four biggest obstacles to developing the north? The list could go on forever, but from what the department has looked at, what in your mind are the major obstacles to developing it? Are they investment rules, the labour force, just basic geology and geomapping? Give me your big three, four, or five. What is it that's holding things up, what do we need to work on and what do we need to look at here on this committee?
