Mr. Speaker, I’d like to continue my questions with the Minister of Transportation on my topic today, which is the Yellowknife Airport.
Clearly today, we’ve heard 20 years of a government of complacency. We’ve heard about a government of perpetual planning where the guiding principles of “delay, defer and defuse” I believe are alive and well in this government and a government that is much okay with losing $2 million a year.
Given that the Yellowknife Airport is bleeding, as I said, to the tune of $2 million annually, can the Minister inform the house what are the short- and long-term strategies to financially balance the shortfall so that it’s not on the backs of the taxpayer? Thank you.
