Thank you, Madam Chair. My general comments are going to speak on terms of tourism right now. In the Beaufort-Delta, it is really important when industry comes in the summertime. There are a lot of people who drive up on the highway and end up in Inuvik. After Inuvik, they don't have anywhere to go except fly to Tuktoyaktuk. Like I say, for a lot of my constituents back home, they are involved with tourism. They do have a good tourism business going, both in Inuvik and in Tuktoyaktuk and also in Paulatuk. I am just wondering, Madam Chair, with regard to that, I know it is a big dream, but one of these years, I hope that we can get that Tuk-Inuvik highway. Then they will be able to drive all the way to Tuktoyaktuk and bring more money into the communities. I wish the Minister can sit down with his colleague in the Transportation department and look at something like that. I am not too sure if it is the right place to put it, but I will bring that out anyway, Madam Chair.

Also, with regard to the Mackenzie Valley pipeline office, I, too, am sort of disappointed that it is not up and running right now. I think I heard the Minister speak earlier that there is one person that is presently being looked at for communications. Correct me if I am wrong, Madam Chair, through the Minister. If I understand correctly, there is a communications person that is going to be going down to Hay River shortly. At the present time, also, I understand that the office that is supposed to be in place now, they are still looking for office space or it's actually being built. I am just wondering, Madam Chair. It is too bad right now we are in the process where I received information and am going to bring it up again, Madam Chair. Inuvik is prepared to handle this kind of situation. My understanding is that there is office space available up there. If things don't happen by April 1st, will the Minister consider the option of looking at the Beaufort-Delta Mackenzie Valley pipeline office? I, too, am sort of disappointed, Madam Chair, with regard to the restructuring of it although I like the idea. Some of my colleagues spoke earlier about the cost of it, but, again, I wouldn't dwell too much with that because I am just going to touch on things I would like to bring out; mainly the tourism and also the Mackenzie Valley pipeline office. Thank you, Madam Chair.
