Thank you, Mr. Chair. I'm having trouble with my microphone here, too, or my hearing piece.
First of all, I want to make a couple of comments on this, I guess, because I have stated in the House that Hay River is the primary logistical point for our operation. It does have the Synchro Lift there for lifting and maintaining and being able to operate our repairs on our vessels and our barges, which is very significant to this whole operation.
Hay River is a key point and it has the most northern rail link in Canada. That is where all the fuel comes from.
One of the things, I think, that has come out of this already, that we have talked about with our staff here, is we want to have a look at doing a regional contingency plan for infrastructure to help mitigate these extreme types of events. I can make that commitment here, in the House, today, that we are going to have a look at doing that for the Beaufort region.
The Member asked me in the House about Tuktoyaktuk, if we would look at doing something there. One of the things that I think would come out of this contingency plan issue would be, you know, is there a possibility of using Tuktoyaktuk for staging and fuel because there is already some infrastructure there in place. These are the types of things that would come out of doing this. Thank you, Mr. Chair.
