Thank you, Mr. Chairman. There was a particular area I left off by accident and in listening to Mr. Yakeleya when he talked about the car shredding, I’ve raised in the past, as well as other Members, but I certainly have raised in the past my concern about battery recycling here in the Northwest Territories and whether that be both large and small batteries, that’s a particular initiative that I was hopeful that this time around the government would show some interest in and I’m curious as to where that has let in. As well as computer recycling. There is a concern in the community, not just in the Yellowknife Centre riding but in the community of Yellowknife, as well as when I travel in the North. People are curious as to what to do with computer technology that continues to be obsolete.
Mr. Chairman, the other issue that I would be remiss if I did not throw it out there is there continues to be a concern about tire shredding and the possibility of bringing that into some type of program that shows up every two, three, four years up and down the valley. Again, material that could be shredded down and found to have another use.
I just want to raise those three particular issues that I would consider very important. Again, computer waste, battery recycling and tire shredding. I think those would be good environmental stewardship programs that the Department of ENR would be involved in. I would certainly hope it’s their focus going forward in this budget year. Thank you.
