Thank you Mr. Speaker. I have some questions and a number of concerns about the oil spill that happened close to Fort Providence. For the Minister responsible, I guess, Renewable Resources, at this time. I would like to know, now I found out there is about 830,000 litres that was in that particular barge that got damaged and they say that 12,000 was spilled into the Mackenzie River. I would like to know how 12,000 litres spilled into the Mackenzie and how was that determined? Was there some sort of a scientific method used to determine that exactly 12,000 litres was spilled into the Mackenzie? And is there a possibility that more than 12,000 had spilled in there.
