Thank you, Madam Chair. On February 8, 1991, at a special council meeting attended by the Honourable Tom Butters, the hamlet presented arguments in favour of installing pipe systems for Rankin Inlet. The reason is, while trucked services may be marginally more cost effective, piped services were the most appropriate choice when viewed from a broader perspective. Other issues were also considered, such as quality of life, firefighting capabilities and the quality of servicing part of the community at a lower standard than had historically been done.
