Thank you. This project, of course, is funded $200 million by
the federal government, $100 million by ourselves. The Government of the Northwest Territories, we’ve got that funding flow starting to work.
In response to the Member’s question, it’s not an advance. It’s going to be from money spent for work done that we are of the opinion of having had one year under our belt and seeing the work that was done by the contractor, got through the start-up issues, got the equipment going, got the staff online, local staff, got all the processes and procedures figured out that this year they will be able to do the work as has been laid out by Transportation to in fact be able to, if all goes according to this plan, which we have every reason to believe it would, is to conclude this project in three years instead of four. Hence the need to look at moving up some of that $40 million.
The intent would be for the project to start as soon as they’re able with the weather, and the concern would be that without any additional funds that they would, in all probability, run short of cash sometime late December, mid-January, which would put the project in a state of hiatus where we don’t have any money to get the work done. So this is, in effect, a good news story where we’ve got things going, and we believe now that we’ll in fact be able to accelerate the project and get the project done earlier than has been planned. Thank you.
