Thank you, Mr. Speaker. So again, once we found out that they were here, we, of course, got a hold of the federal government to try to find out why they're here and then, just out of basic courtesy, tried to figure out what exactly their plans were, because the North is a harsh environment. So we did look into some of the things that they were doing and some of the requirements. So right now, there's no permitting requirements under the MVRMA for the type of equipment that's being used. However, the Department of Infrastructure did inspect the vehicles and they don't pass the Highway 4 regulations to be able to travel so they are going to be need to be hauled on a trailer to Tibbitt Lake so they can't be on our highways, the type of vehicle they're doing. Again, this expedition is not conducting scientific research as we know so they didn't need to get a scientific research licence as well for this.
Our biggest concern, Mr. Speaker, like, we have reached out to them; we are trying to figure out what their plans are. It's not -- we're not worried about what they're here to do as much as we're worried about their safety. We live in a harsh environment. So we want to make sure that they have plans, that they have the proper equipment, that they have the proper vehicles, clothing, etcetera, to be able to do this expedition. And again, it's not a requirement. It's a courtesy that we're doing that for. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
