Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, as the honourable mentioned, the bridge over the Yellowknife river is being replaced by a newer structure that will accommodate millions of tons of supplies that will be going up north of Yellowknife into the Slave province for mining. As the former structure is very old, it has run through its life and to repair it and to bring it back up to standard would be very costly. To move it any place would also be very costly. At this point in time, the department has recommended that it not be used any longer and it be dismantled. Thank you.
