Mr. Speaker, the Minister is correct in terms of this government here empowering some of our municipal councils in terms of standards and where the priorities are, and sometimes it’s a very difficult position to be put into. However, Mr. Speaker, I would ask the Minister of MACA if he would, with this good staff in our region of the Sahtu, go into the communities and look at the issue of roads, as he’s committed to other Members here, in terms of assessing and working with the department in order to bring the standard up to a road. This is what they need to do in terms of long-term planning in terms of allocating a certain amount of dollars to bring our roads up to standard in the Sahtu.
