Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Recently there have been a rise in the number of local emergencies, such as in Fort Simpson and Rankin Inlet, etc., and emergency response measures have been criticized. For a simple example, currently local authorities can only approve expenditures on emergency measures up to $1,000. Committee Members expressed concern that we must be better prepared to reasonably deal with such situations.
