Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Mr. Chairman, the fact is, $700 some odd thousand of the $1.05 million is, in fact spent, yes. The completion of the project would have been to the cost of $1.05 million, so the overall plan of the project over two years would have been that this year the project be completed, however, the Member is right, some of the money is spent already, yes.

Roy Erasmus Yellowknife North
Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I just wanted to comment on this money being spent on Highway 4, the allocation of $550,000. As has been noted, this road is also the road that the community of Detah uses for nine months of the year and if you take the population of Detah and the population of the people that live on the Ingraham Trail, that population is more than several communities in the Western Arctic and very close to some others. I am well aware of the work that is being done on that highway, which incidentally is in Yellowknife North, and that particular stretch of road is a very dangerous area and I think that it is high time that it was fixed and I cannot agree with the committee when they indicate that they would like to see this amount decreased and put into the main highway system. I would like to see this work continued and finished as planned. Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
