Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Good Morning. Mr. Speaker, today I would like to talk about Cape Christian. Cape Christian is a former American coast guard station located 12 miles northeast of Clyde River. The Americans established the station in 1952. It is currently abandoned. In 1975, ownership of the station was transferred to the Canadian government. The federal government in turn sold the entire infrastructure to the Government of the NWT. The Government of the NWT is the current owner of the site. PCB cleanup of the site is almost completed but, Mr. Speaker, there are still garbage and abandoned buildings on the site. More cleanup is needed to get rid of the garbage and abandoned buildings. The site is a threat to the safety and environment of Clyde River. Mr. Speaker, the community of Clyde River would like the site cleared of abandoned buildings and the garbage cleaned up. Thank you.
