Thank you, Mr. Speaker. With respect to the Great Bear River Bridge project, yes, because it was taken off our books and de-scoped, we actually had to go back to the federal government because it was a pre-approved program by the federal government at that time. However, we were able to get agreement to reallocate that money to five other bridges/projects: the Big Smith Creek, Little Smith Creek, Bob's Canyon, Blackwater River and Strawberry Creek bridges, Mr. Speaker. Those will be done. It actually expedites the number of bridges that we need for a future all-weather road up the Mackenzie Valley, Mr. Speaker.
