Thank you, Mr. Chairman. My question is under capital, page 1 of 4, it is a $195,000 item. It is a fire truck replacement for Deline. I asked a question in the committee review on when this vehicle will be delivered to the community of Deline. The answer I received was possibly January of next year.
I am wondering why it is in an interim appropriation when it could have been put in the main estimates when we review that in June, because the only method of getting this vehicle into Deline is to take it over the winter road. Everybody knows the winter road is not usually constructed until December or January.
I would like to ask the Minster if his department has taken that into consideration, after it was raised in the committee meetings?
