Thank you, Mr. Chairman. The options of providing supplies to Pelly Bay either by air, barge, ship or winter road from Repulse Bay or Taloyoak has been reviewed, I believe when Mr. Gordon Wray was a Minister. According to my understanding, the saving we could provide to this government is by barge or by ship. Unfortunately the only means of transportation by sea is with an ice breaker. That would be an option for the government because that would provide a savings to the government, and the savings could be used for other meaningful programs for the people of the NWT.
