Thank you, Mr. Chairman. One of the reasons you’ve seen this purchase of jet boats is that the previous equipment, including all our jet boats, is basically falling apart because of its extensive use by officers in the field. You’re seeing more and more jet boats in the Northwest Territories in remote areas. It’s important that our staff, our officers, have the opportunity to go out there to do their job. Naturally, the issue is safety.
In regard to the price of jet boats, Mr. Chairman, this is well within reason for a jet boat of this size. It’s not a Cadillac model; it’s a workhorse model of jet boats.
