Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, I have some questions today for the Minister of Transportation and it gets back to my Member’s statement on the Deh Cho Bridge. I just want to start out by saying that I respect and I appreciate the work that both the Minister and his departmental staff are putting in on this project, but I’ve got to ask some fundamental questions here today, Mr. Speaker.
Much has been made about the departure of Atcon from the Deh Cho Bridge Project. The project was sold, like I said in my Member’s statement, to the public, to Members of this House and to the former Cabinet as a fixed price contract. That is just not factual today, Mr. Speaker. I would like the Minister to explain to the House today how this so-called fixed price contract turned into such a gong show, Mr. Speaker, and now we are looking for a new contractor to finish the second half of that bridge. Thank you.
