Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, I would like to address my question to the Minister of Resources, Wildlife and Economic Development. I recently received a copy of a letter directed to the Minister from the Rae Lakes chief. The chief is expressing his concern regarding response time for attacking any fires. He went on to say that it seems the department only fights fire when it has increased in size, when it could be cheaper to fight it when it is very small. My question is, why not attack when the fires are smaller and it is cheaper to fight? Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
