Thank you, Mrs. Chair. From the comments, I have listened to some of the Members talking about the problems and the most important item I think I see now in front us is the changeover from calcium chloride treatment on roads and streets to chipsealing. So the criteria for chipsealing when we first put this forward was health. Now it seems that we are not considering health. It looks to me more and more, like my colleague has said, it's more politics. If you look at the schedule and you look at the justification for all this, chipsealing is chipsealing. It's not crushing gravel. I know you have to crush gravel, you have to stockpile to do the work, but you can't chipseal in Tuktoyaktuk on the winter road. It's impossible. Maybe you would be able to do it in the summer when you barge the chipsealer in, but you can't chipseal it. If you can't crush and chipseal in the same year, then in Lutselk'e, you can bring it in on a barge in the summertime, crush and chipseal in the same year, then that's where you should go first. I would like to ask the Minister, where is thiscrusher at this moment? Thank you.
