Mr. Speaker, again, the point I am trying to make is we, as government, have to find ways to implement infrastructure into communities. Sure, you might have downloaded the responsibility to communities. This government still has a responsibility in regards to infrastructure in those communities, with pipes and water treatment plants, in regards to schools, in regards to utilidor systems or basically looking at the overall cost of health centres. Yet those are still the Government of the Northwest Territories’ responsibility. It is not the municipality’s responsibility. But yet none of that is making its way into this capital budget. Why is it that departments that are in charge of reviewing this budget and coming forward with their objectives are not looking at community infrastructure that needs to be replaced?
