Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I second this motion because I support this motion. It's one that is really needed. And I always keep thinking about the late Cece McCauley who always said build a highway. And, you know, I think it's time now that we take a look at that. You know, as my colleague who brought forward this motion talks about the need of putting a highway there that helps with the high cost of living in that region, no different than I'm trying to push the same thing for my riding as well. But, Mr. Speaker, roads like this is good for communities. It's good for the North. Good for the jobs in the small communities. We all benefit from this. So, Mr. Speaker, you know, I'd like to see this road go ahead. And I always remember Cece McCauley at the Dene Nation meetings I used to attend, and she was a big advocate behind this whole thing so I think that maybe when we build this highway, we may have to call it the Cece McCauley Highway. Anyways, thank you, Mr. Speaker.
