We’ll have that in all the detail.

Thank you, Minister. Mr. Neudorf.

Thank you, Mr. Neudorf. Mr. Krutko.

Again I have to agree with Mr. Neudorf, because I did read the parliamentary budget address and it did stipulate the Northwest Territories and Nunavut by way of harbour development. I think that because we’re just as unique as they are, I think that for coastal communities, it works there. But being Aklavik is only 50 kilometres from the coast, so I think it’s something that should be considered for those communities that are either along the coastline and also for communities that require this type of infrastructure.

Thank you, Mr. Krutko. Minister McLeod.

Mr. Chairman, we are still not at the point where we can indicate how those programs will be delivered in the Northwest Territories and neither have we heard how Nunavut is going to get their money. There have been some communities identified in Nunavut. We will continue to follow up on what’s available and to whom. Our understanding is that right now the dollars are earmarked for fisheries and fishing communities. That includes some of the dredging programs that are being put in place for supporting the fisheries in the communities.

Mr. Chairman, we will try to convince the government to invest as much as they can in the Northwest Territories. We have a lot of needs in the area of marine facilities. Certainly if we can convince the government to go further than just the communities that deal with commercial fishermen, that would really help us in a lot of different ways and address some of the issues that are being raised by the Member here today. Thank you.

Thank you, Minister McLeod. Page 11-30, activity summary, community marine infrastructure, grants and contributions, contributions.

Page 11-33, activity summary, local community access roads, operations expenditure summary, $323,000. Agreed?

Page 11-34, activity summary, local community access roads, grants and contributions, contributions, $313,000. Mr. Krutko.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. Mr. Chair, can we get a breakdown on where these $313,000 are being expended, which communities?

Thank you, Mr. Krutko. Minister McLeod.

Mr. Chairman, we would be pleased to provide that information to the Members.

Thank you. I was just asking if Aklavik is on that list where they are getting $50,000 a year. I am wondering if they are still on that list.

Mr. Chairman, not all the applications are in yet. We have Aklavik identified as a community that we expect to apply, but we have not received an application from them.

Thank you, Minister McLeod. We are on page 11-34, activity summary, local community access roads, grants and contributions, contributions $313,000.

Agreed. Moving along to page 11-37, activity summary, road licensing and safety, Mr. Bromley.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. I just note that this section of the department ensures protection of public safety and the environment. They also are interested in future opportunities for partnerships to ensure regulatory harmonization and implementation of new ideas. These are things that always intrigue me with the possibilities. So following up on my Member’s statement here earlier today, I would just like to see if the Minister may have thought more about what the possibilities are for dealing with greenhouse gas emission from vehicles and starting to take responsibility for some of the emissions that other jurisdictions are increasingly taking more responsibly throughout North America. Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Bromley. Minister McLeod.
