Thank you. I think I'll just leave that there. The point, though, is that we want these things to operate smoothly in a way that they don't have to call an MLA or anybody or a director of anything. It should be made in such a way that it's common knowledge for somebody who wants to do that could call. I'll follow that up separately.
Another point that I wanted to make has to do with the highway signage. I think my colleagues in this House might have noticed that I haven't been raising too many hot issues about Highway No. 3 lately. I have driven that road over Christmas, and it was a very good drive. It was icy and foggy and there were buffalo signs everywhere, but as long as you kept your speed I guess I came to accept the reality that the last leg of Highway No. 3 will take its time in getting fixed. From the time that I was elected to this office, that distance has shortened considerably. I think we're looking at about 50 kilometres, and as long as you consider that as a little bit of a construction zone and drive accordingly, it's not too bad. But I did have a concern about the signage. One thing was there are not enough signs. I don't know if it's because you're driving a long, winding road, but it would be helpful that every so many Ks it would tell us the distance remaining to whatever destination we are heading to, whether it's Yellowknife or Rae or whatever. But I found myself constantly seeking that sign.
Another thing is the buffalo signs that were on Highway No. 3. Closer to Fort Providence, the buffalo signs are very clear. It tells you to beware of buffalo. But later on, and I don't know if it's because of the emergency situation that Transportation had to put up a whole bunch of signs to make people aware of buffalo or not, but they were non-descriptive, beige, big buffalo-shaped signs that didn't say anything on them. If you are from Yellowknife or if you lived here for a long time, you would make that conclusion that that's to warn you of the buffalo, but I thought for those not familiar with the area, it would be much more helpful if every sign that gets put up indicates that this is an area where buffalo are commonly found and it's not just this big buffalo-shaped thing. When I saw fog, I began to think they were buffalo themselves and not just signs. That's just a point of recommendation for the department to consider. Perhaps the Minister would like to comment on that and then I would like to ask some questions on the Yellowknife airport authority.
