Thank you, Mr. Speaker. As far as advancing that project, that is a community initiative. We are working with the community of Aklavik and the Member across to help them move this project along, but what I can do is update the House. We were just at the Economic Summit in Inuvik, the Premier and myself had an opportunity to sit down with the mayor of Aklavik and have a conversation about a working group that he is pulling together, because this thing has sort of been all over the map, with different funding groups taking the money and having different priorities on how this bridge should be advanced, so he is pulling that together, and we have had the regional director sit in on that meeting to help them, help facilitate how they think they need to pull some stuff together around the land use permits and moving this thing forward. That was the latest that we had with the mayor of Aklavik at this point. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
