Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I am in agreement that the first priority is safe service for the travelling public. Recently, I think it was the board of industry and trade gave a ruling that the ferry service in Nahendeh, Fort Simpson, was not going to be supported as an essential service. I wonder if our government has appealed that decision, along with many others, that it should be deemed an essential service. You are well aware, even if our other ferry at the Mackenzie River had similar problems, it would certainly be called an essential service. Why couldn't our ferry be declared an essential service, as well? Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
