Thank you very much, Mr. Speaker. That level of detail is in the concession agreement as to risk factors, what happens if the federal government bans trucks altogether where do we even collect any money at all. Some of those details are in the concession agreement. That level of detail, I cannot state in this House at this moment, Mr. Speaker. Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, again, that points clearly to why it is so very, very important that before the government enters into a concession agreement, that it shares the information with Members of this House so that we can ask questions so that we can assess the risk that the government, not just this government but the next governments for the next 35 years are going to be having to live with. So will the Minister commit to sharing that level of detail with this House before a concession agreement is signed off? Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, my question is for the Minister of Finance.

During the winter road closure and in the absence of ferry service, automotive and home heating oil prices in Yellowknife have continued to rise without re-supply.

Please provide examples of past and current instances where the government has intervened on behalf of the consumer in order to prevent price gouging of fuel costs and please provide a detailed list of the legislation used to do so.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
