Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I agree with the honourable Member that, in these small communities, maintenance and parking garages are critical. They also assist in reducing the wear and tear of essential municipal equipment, the water and sewer trucks, and I want to assure him that it is an important priority. If you note, in my opening comments, we have identified $2.9 million toward the construction of public buildings, including parking and maintenance garages and warehouses.
There will be a continuing discussion with the municipalities, specifically as it relates to Mr. Ningark's riding. I want to assure him that there will be some ongoing discussions with the hamlets of Pelly Bay, Gjoa Haven and Taloyoak. Thank you.
