Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I guess my question will be directed to Minister of Transportation, the Honourable Jim Antoine. As I mentioned in my Member's statement people who live on the highway system have the ability to go elsewhere to buy their food. Also on the highway system, food is less expensive, a little bit anyway. In remote communities, there is no choice where to buy their food. They must rely on expensive airlines and local stores. What are we as a government doing to assist low income families in remote communities to buy their healthy food. Thank you.
