Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I thank the Member for his question. It was certainly an honour to be in Norman Wells last week to receive the project description report from the Tulita district. It’s very good to see groups getting together to agree that an all-weather Mackenzie Valley Highway is important. The work was very well done and well received.
We are currently waiting for two project description reports that will complement the other three. There are five in total that will be put together and submitted to the regulator. We’re hoping to have the other two project description reports by the end of this year. Once those are done, it will move into that regulatory phase.
Again, I think, moving forward, the important thing is that we’re going to have to identify further
sources of funding to continue the momentum on moving the work forward.
Again, I look forward to working with the Member and groups up and down the Mackenzie Valley to ensure that that happens. Thank you.
