Thank you, Mr. Chair. We do have money underneath the Build Canada Plan for the next four years, starting this year, to reconstruct Highway No. 1. Most of the money will be spent between Fort Providence junction and Checkpoint. We have a program right now to reconstruct and chipseal the section from Jean Marie River access to Checkpoint. Of course, a portion

of that’s done

already, up to kilometre 395. But with the funding available in the next three or four years, we hope to get that all reconstructed and chipsealed and then we’ll move to Fort Providence and carry on with reconstructing and improving the stretch of chipseal that’s there right now. The Member will know that we’re having a hard time with keeping chipseal on this stretch of road there. The base of the road isn’t strong enough, so we do have to go in and strengthen that, and then as we do that

we’ll put chipseal on it again. Thank you, Mr.

Chair.
