Thank you, Mr. Speaker. My questions today are for the Premier. I get back to my Member’s statement from earlier today. I believe we can’t underestimate the importance of a strong presence in Ottawa. I know the government, I gave them credit, I think we’ve gotten a fair bit of money from Ottawa, but I think the time is of the essence and I think we need to get more money from Ottawa. We have many demands, especially on our transportation infrastructure. We have to get more money in here. I’d like to ask the Premier what the game plan is going forward to try to get more money from the federal government.

I know in June I stood up in this House and I cited a project in the Yukon where the Yukon government received $71 million for a hydro expansion in Carmacks. It’s things like that: substantial investment from the federal government. Where is it at on this government’s radar and how are we going to achieve more?
