Mr. Chairman, I appreciate the Member’s thoughts on the funding. I will say that I am of the same belief that in a project of this size, the benefits, as much as possible, accrue to the businesses and the residents of the Northwest Territories and the majority of that money stays here in our economy and doesn’t end up in some southern economy somewhere. I think those are things that we need to strive towards and certainly it is my belief that we can sort out a procurement of the highway that will ensure that that happens. That is a ways away. Today we need to ensure that we can get the upfront work done, the due diligence.
I really do appreciate the Member’s support and look forward to his continued support for the Tuk-Inuvik highway. Thank you.
