Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Mr. Chairman, perhaps I can provide clarification that might satisfy the Members on this point. In terms of Fort Simpson, I am advised in this year's capital plan, the following items are included: a sewage treatment plant upgrade, which is a requirement of the water board, this is not something that is discretionary by the community. It is something they have to do. There is work to be done on the arena and the community centre. Main street improvements, district heating, which should result in some energy savings to the community. Some ambulance equipment and some computer equipment for the hamlet office. Mr. Chairman, the emergency road that was referenced earlier is not in their current plan. It is not something they have identified as something they will do. It is something that used to be in the capital plans. There is an example of something where the community has shifted its priority to things like the sewage treatment plan upgrade, which they really have no choice but to proceed with this year. Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
