Thank you, Madam Chair. I appreciate the question. There are a number of contracts and I’d have to see what provisions are in those contracts to address acts of God or Mother Nature when blizzards come and communities are cut off for an extended period of time. I could certainly look into that and get some further detail for the Member on how that works.
I know our contractors did yeoman’s work in trying to clear the roads and get communities connected again during the recent blizzard up in the Beaufort-Delta, and they are to be commended for all the hard work. I know they put in a number of extra hours to ensure the roads were clear not just in the Beaufort-Delta but also in the Sahtu. I appreciate all their hard work.
But specific to the contracts, I would have to get that information for the Member on what provisions are in there in the event that contractors do run over because of a blizzard. Thank you.
