Mr. Speaker, I’m going to wade in on the bridge again today. I have questions.
How can a piece of legislation passed two Assemblies ago, which envisioned a self-financing $50 million capital project, possibly still be a go — with a green light — today in the 16th Assembly,
having more than tripled in price? Almost all the parameters of the project have changed, and never once has an opportunity been given back to the Members to confirm that they actually support this project. In a public government, in 2008, with Members duly elected to run the Northwest Territories, how can such a thing have been allowed to happen?
Mr. Speaker, I don’t know what’s driving the bridge anymore. I could tell you some people in governments long past who might have been driving the bridge. But I don’t know what’s driving the bridge anymore. I don’t know who wants the bridge. I don’t know who supports it. I don’t know who wants to pay for it.
Interjection.
