(Translation) Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I have discussed this with the Minister, regarding docks in Coral Harbour. He is already aware that the dock is being used by NTCL, Northern Transportation Company Limited, at this time, and it gets worse every year. It is probably very expensive. The residents of Coral Harbour have worked quite hard to plan for a new dock that they want. There will not be a calmer area; it is not always calm but it is in a calmer area. This dock would be very useful to the community, to the NTCL also. There is a lot of limestone in that area, and a lot of times NTCL go back to Churchill without anything on the ship, and maybe we would be able to ship some out. Since the dock is too small, the smaller canoes are sometimes damaged by the bigger boats, especially when it gets windy. I wrote a letter to that Minister, and the residents of Coral Harbour have also made designs of how they want the dock to be built. I would like to ask the Minister why the study to build a dock in Coral Harbour is not included in the capital estimates.
