I want to assure my good friends from the Sahtu that I’m not wanting to take away from their road. I think the Mackenzie Valley Highway merits stand on their own. This road would provide close community access to major infrastructure and connect family, food, people, everything. You name it, it comes with all the fantastic benefits.
When will this government hear back from our proposal about connecting with this community? I think it’s time this government comes up with a policy to ensure that if we had a community within a certain amount of distance, we need to get together right away and start building these plans and building these highways that make all the world of difference to these folks when it comes to their cost of living. Thank you.
