Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, it is hard to compare the amount of dollars the mining industry has compared to what we have as a government and expect the same results. They just have a lot more revenue than we have, so they have the ability to construct facilities as the Member has seen.

Our ability to address the mining needs and the impact they have on our highways is very limited right now. I can assure the Member and the House that we are considering ways of encouraging the oil and gas and mining industries to share in the cost of our highways. Thank you.
