Thank you, Mr. Speaker. The road that we made reference to into Colville Lake is a winter road and it is only seasonal. The department did put in the road this year and we will be putting it in on an annual basis from here on. It will become part of our winter road system. We already have winter roads into Wekweti and Gameti, subject to ice of course.
It is a little bit of a different nature that we would be talking to Indian Affairs about an all-weather road into the North Slave versus what is happening into Colville Lake. Colville Lake is not an all-weather road and, at this time, we are not proposing it as an all-weather road. It is just simply a winter road. Indian Affairs has not contributed any funding towards this at this time. It is all between the territorial government and industry. There is no funding from Indian Affairs involved in that particular road.
What I was referring to was we are trying to work with Indian Affairs to identify some process whereby we could fund new roads into these communities that are not on the all-weather road system.
