Thank you, Madam Chair. Madam Chair, today it's a pleasure to bring forward comments on behalf of Mr. Pokiak who is not able to deliver them here today, specifically regarding what's lacking in the Minister's opening statement.
There is nothing in the opening comments or this Transportation budget that is very specific to the Tuk-Inuvik highway or the lack thereof. Madam Chair, this project has been in concept, who knows where, for 30 years. Would the Minister speak directly to how we are addressing the lack of the Tuk-Inuvik highway and what investment is he willing to make or what does he plan to make? Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
