Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, during the first week of February in Fort Providence we had a very beautiful day and the snow -- I thought the snow was melting but we had a bit of rain. Mr. Speaker, the Department of Transportation decided to put sodium chloride on the access road to the community, and this made a mess of our vehicles. I was getting calls from my constituents inquiring as to why they were doing that. Mr. Speaker, up to that time people were driving at the normal speed and there did not seem to be anything hazardous about the situation before or after. I would like to ask the Minister; why would the department spend, on my access road into Fort Providence, $218,000 on the chemicals that they used for the access road since nobody was complaining about the road? There was no accident to indicate that there was a problem with the road. What was the justification for the department's putting this stuff on the road?
