Mr. Speaker, in my research, it took the threat of invasion and the war to ask… Not to ask; I think the United States government said we’re going to come up and we’re going to build a highway west of Norman Wells and move some oil and this is what we’re going to do. When that threat was no longer there, they left everything just as is.
Mr. Speaker, I’m not too sure if this is something that is even possible in the Northwest Territories, in terms of putting some priorities to building a highway up the Mackenzie Valley. I want to ask the Minister, in terms of his economic analysis of the Mackenzie Valley Highway, what type of dollars is in the report. I look forward to him sharing it, but what type of dollars does the analysis come out with, should we build a Mackenzie Valley Highway, some dollars that could be realized? I want to ask the Minister if he could give me sort of an estimate.
