Thank you. Mr. Speaker, this transportation strategy is viewed strategy-wise on how to approach it. It is connected quite strongly with the economic development strategy that I am working on with my colleagues, Mr. Todd, Mr. Kakfwi and Mr. Dent, as well as the Premier. There is an overall initiative that we do have to approach the federal government, and we should also be approaching the other provinces that benefit from the Northwest Territories, as well, in trying to seek some way of developing an opportunity to get some funding. The National Highway Strategy is an initiative by the Ministry of Transportation and has been an initiative for a number of years now and we have always supported that initiative. We think that is a good initiative. It is just trying to find different ways of trying to move that strategy forward to the federal government and see if there is going to be some money there for them to give us for this project. Thank you.
