Mr. Speaker, the Deh Cho Bridge Corporation, along with this government, has requested $50 million from the federal government. We haven’t yet received a response from the federal government. The Deh Cho Bridge Corporation has been working with the Department of Indian Affairs in terms of the $5 million equity that has been outlined with the Department of Indian Affairs, and they are working through a process of how much they can obtain of the $5 million. That is still ongoing.
Mr.
Speaker, this government, all Northerners
continue working with the aboriginal governments, with communities in terms of building infrastructure down in the Mackenzie Valley, right across the Northwest Territories in terms of having the federal government own up to their responsibilities of putting in significant infrastructure right across the Territories. I’d be very happy to work with committee in terms of some of these projects that they’ve identified over the last couple of weeks in terms of the infrastructure needs in their communities.
