Masi, Madam Chair. The shoreline erosion, in my view, is a safety issue, health issue, that we definitely need to deal with as a government. The federal government's $872,000 that the Member is alluding to, there hasn't been anything happening there. We have to question why there is a stall there.

The hamlet of Tuktoyaktuk, to my understanding, has been working on a plan for some time now to put some sort of a barrier wall, but there are other options that they are dealing with. We need to hear them out. We need to work with them and also to share their perspective, because they will be the experts. They know those areas of challenges that they are faced with. We, as a territorial government, need to meet with the community of Tuktoyaktuk and hear their plan.

The federal government, well, if we wait, I am not sure how long we are going to wait for them, but if it is becoming a real issue for four community households, in my view, it is part of the emergency issues that we need to deal with. If I was elected Premier, I would focus my attention to say, "Okay, what can we do? What has the community done? The federal government contribution, where is it at? GNWT, what have we been doing? Can we move forward on this file, instead of the four houses coming down?" We need to prevent that from happening.

I am not in a position to say that we should move the community members. That should be the last resort, but it's the safety of the community members and the households, so we need to deal with it immediately. Masi.
