Thanks for that. The top item on page 27, broadband fibre expansion link. This mentions that this is the Inuvik to Tuktoyaktuk extension of the Mackenzie Valley fibre link. I've been somewhat critical of the Mackenzie Valley fibre link in the past, kind of building the line but passing by communities without a distribution system when it had actually been pitched as a way to improve broadband access across the NWT. Does this budget item actually include a distribution system in Tuktoyaktuk, or how are people in Tuktoyaktuk going to be able to take advantage of extending the fibre link to their community? Thanks, Madam Chair.
