Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I’m just supporting my colleague from the Sahtu. I know that, in most jurisdictions you go to, East Coast, you go to B.C., they have isolated communities, coastal communities who receive ferry services. It is a public service that they provide. Ferry service is a public service. I think that what Mr. Yakeleya is asking for is, has this government ever considered looking at providing services to coastal or communities that are isolated like other parts of Canada, either the east or west coasts in regards to ferry operations to those communities who can scavenge only once every two weeks or every three weeks or charge $30 a head whenever, when at least provide that public service to those communities on the Mackenzie River like they do in other parts of Canada? Have you ever considered that and looked at that possibility as a program that
this government can offer to those communities during the summer months?
Once the ferry basically is going to be commissioned out of the Deh Cho Bridge, once it is concluded, that ferry will have to go somewhere. I believe that maybe at that time we can consider such a proposal and do a feasibility study and work with those communities and see exactly does that make practical sense. Is it worth building a $1.8 billion highway? Is this another alternative we can look at to reduce the cost of living in those communities? Offer them basically an opportunity to get out of the communities during the summer months either with their vehicle or with their families, go south, do their shopping, go back to their communities like they do in other parts of Canada. I am just following up on my colleague’s question. I think that is where he is coming from. As the government is responsible for providing that public service, have we ever considered looking at it, how they provide that service in other parts of Canada?
