Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, today I want to direct my question to the Minister of Transportation. Mr. Speaker, this has to do with the fact that the Department of Transportation had figured there should be no improvements to Highway No. 6 in the foreseeable future. Mr. Speaker, I just want to point out again the importance of this highway link for residents of Deninu Kue insofar as travelling to the Hub -- Hay River -- to pick up medical supplies, prescriptions, dental and banking, and many other activities that members of Deninu Kue and the settlement of Little Buffalo River rely on on a daily basis. The volume of traffic has been increasing over the last two years due to the fact that we lost our air service. Mr. Speaker, I want to ask the Minister to tell me how the department measures the volumes of traffic on the highway systems, and what the criteria is to prioritize the amount of work that should be on each road system. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
