Thank you, Madam Speaker. I would like to direct a question to the Minister responsible for safety. During the past four years, there have been a couple of incidents where contractors who are contracted to do rock blasting in Yellowknife have put the public in some danger -- in my opinion, at least -- by allowing blasts to be too large or by not following the safety requirements that are laid out.
In an incident in Kam Lake, when I was the Member responsible for that area, a big rock went through a garage roof last October. The same company, by the way, put a rock through a house trailer in a residential area where there was a kid sleeping in a bedroom. I would like to know whether the department has provisions for restricting licenses of contractors who do not follow safety practices and blast in a safe manner.
