Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I would like to direct my question to the Minister of Transportation. I understand the department has been using new spray equipment to construct the Fort Providence ice crossing for the past two or three years. The new equipment is supposed to allow the road to be built more quickly than the old drill and flood method. I am told that this new spray equipment cost the department in the neighbourhood of $200,000 but that the kinks are still being worked out. Mr. Speaker, I am strongly in favour of the new technology, but I wonder when the department will master this new equipment. Can the Minister advise the House as to the success of the department so far in constructing the Fort Providence ice crossing more quickly and efficiently with the new spray equipment?
