Mr. Speaker, we do have two vessels right in Providence. One of the vessels is used for an emergency in the event there is a breakdown in the other vessel. In this case that is not what happened. In this case they had traffic waiting, and I suppose they also had people in Yellowknife waiting for freight etc. While that was happening money was wasted, both for the operation of the ferry, which this government pays for. I think in this case I would like to ask the Minister why the stand-by ferry was not used in the meantime, and why we should not be billing the federal government?
