Yes, thank you, Mr. Chair. The exact details, I don't have at my disposal, but I do know that part of it, I think, was for planning, studying, and construction of the 15-kilometre all-weather road from Wrigley north to Mount Gaudet Access Road. As for the exact details, I would have to make a commitment to the Member that I will have a conversation with Infrastructure and be sure we provide those. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. Mr. Chair, I am here to present Supplementary Estimates (Operations Expenditures), No. 3, 2018-2019. This document provides for an increase of $4.4 million to the operations budget.
The major items included in these supplementary estimates are:
- $1.9 million for implementation activities directly related to the legalization and regulation of cannabis. These expenditures will be partially offset by funding from the federal government.
- $1.2 million for compensation and benefits costs pursuant to the Standard Physician Contract, 2016-2021.
- $728 thousand to support the delivery of the Investing in Canada Infrastructure Plan. These expenditures are fully offset by revenues from the federal government.
- $389 thousand for increased costs related to the Deline Self-Government Financing Agreement.
That concludes my opening remarks, Mr. Chair, and I would be pleased to answer any questions the Members may have. Thank you, Mr. Chair.
