Mr. Speaker, I have been to Lake Harbour in the good old days when I was a regional development officer of Local Government, in 1975. I covered all of the Baffin regions and enjoyed my two year stay while I was there. We do recognize the importance of this Lake Harbour airstrip as we recognize others, as I said earlier, such as Mr. Zoe's in Rae.
It is our intention to make it part of our strategy to seek the joint initiative of the federal government to assist in funding this down the road. As I said earlier today, there is no money in the current budget to work on that strip. But, I've made a commitment to my colleague in Nunavut Caucus, and I'll make a commitment to my colleague in the Western Caucus, that I will make every effort to try to find and seek the appropriate funding to work out a plan to improve the facilities that currently are used in Lake Harbour. Thank you.
