Thank you, Mr. Speaker. To the Premier, thank you for that explanation. I think he knows I am totally in support of a Mackenzie Valley Highway project. The more we can get it going, the sooner the better.
One other resolution I wanted to mention is the resolution that talks about the protection of NWT waters from oil sands developments. It asks the GNWT to ask the Government of Alberta to halt new oil sands approval until it negotiates an enforceable transboundary water agreement with the NWT. My question to the Premier is whether or not he will commit to forward that message on behalf of the NWTAC to the Government of Alberta.
