Yes, thank you, Mr. Chairman. Regarding the opening statements that I said earlier this afternoon, I really think this is a position that is a safety concern for myself and the betterment of the Tuktoyaktuk Airport. Having a regional manager there in the community, he does not only take care of the one airport in Tuktoyaktuk, he takes care of the other three in my riding, four in total. I really think that, like I said, this individual goes above and beyond his duties in regard to doing his job to the best of his ability and I really think this wouldn’t be good to cut because, as the Minister said earlier, the position will be looked at again, and just stating that won’t ever come back to the community. Just speaking to that, I just thank my colleagues for voting with me on this motion. Thank you.
