Mr. Speaker, thank you. My questions this afternoon are for Mr. Menicoche, the Minister for Transportation. Mr. Speaker, there are two visionary projects in play right now to open up the diamond fields and other mineral areas north and east of Yellowknife to more secure transportation. The Bathurst Inlet port and road proposal, which would bring things in via the Arctic Ocean marine route, and, of course, the Tibbet to Contwoyto seasonal winter road project. Both have
significant ramifications for our economy; both will require significant public and/or private investment. It is likely, though, that perhaps only one will make it, at least in the near future. Mr. Speaker, which one does the GNWT prefer?
