Mr. Chairman, I would like to make a comment on one of the line items under the Fort Smith region in regard to bridge repairs for Rae-Edzo. I see that the department has included $30,000 to repair the existing bridge that connects the island to the mainland. Mr. Chairman, I do not believe the department has seriously looked at the situation of that particular bridge. It is only one lane. It is the largest community in my riding and it has only one lane. We have been having difficulty going across that particular bridge. If I recall correctly, Mr. Chairman, the community has written to the department requesting a new bridge rather than repairs to the existing bridge, although I see money in here for repairs only. Is the department anticipating that they are going to look at a new bridge for Rae-Edzo?
