Mr. Speaker, I have a return to written question asked by Mr. Yakeleya on October 18, 2005, regarding the Impaired Driving Day.
There are currently over 500 schools nationally that participate in the National Students Against Impaired Driving Day. In the Northwest Territories, St. Patrick's High School participated in this year's events. This Students Against Drunk Driving chapter, which has been operating for over 10 years, has been a strong voice for responsible behaviour and for measures to step up the fight against impaired driving. The Department of Transportation made an in-kind contribution of banners to the high school.
From 2000 to 2004, only the Inuvik region reported alcohol-related motor vehicle collision fatalities. During that period, five of 11 fatalities were alcohol related, which is approximately 45 percent of the total. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
