Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, my question is directed to the Minister of Transportation, Mr. Antoine. Mr. Speaker, I congratulate the Minister for being able to complete the access road to Jean Marie River for a sum of $1.6 million. That is the figure I have been given. This is a very economical road, considering the amount of miles being quoted, 27 miles, I believe the Minister said. My question to the Minister is, could he apply this very efficient matter of constructing road in other areas? For instance, the road from Inuvik to Tuktoyaktuk is estimated at 100 miles. We could build that road for $5 million if we use the Minister's department and their construction procedure which seems to be very efficient. I wonder if the Minister would reconsider looking at the road from Inuvik to Tuktoyaktuk, considering how economical it is? Thank you.
