Thank you, Mr. Chair. We have talked a little bit about these double-hulled barges in my statement, about the funding that we secured with the federal government for the $19.5 million and had questions on our contribution.
The one nice thing about these, for the people that didn't get to attend the MTC opening in Hay River, we actually had a picture of the barges, and I think we actually have some of the drawings, and maybe I will commit to bringing them to our briefing as well so that Members can get a better understanding of these new designed barges. They are going to be able to haul all types of fuel on there. They are designed for that. They are double-hulled. There are four of them, and we will be able to put deck cargo on them.
In a case like this year, instead of having different trips going to the communities, and particularly the High Arctic, we will probably be able to service maybe, not only one, but maybe two communities with all their fuel and all their deck cargo in one trip. That is going to make a significant difference to the delivery times into the coastal communities. Thank you, Mr. Chair.
