Thanks, Mr. Chair. When does this short-term contract end, and when does the Minister expect to have a longer-term contract in place? Thanks, Mr. Chair.

Debates of , 18th Assembly, 3rd Session (day 22)

Thank you, Mr. Chair. I appreciate that commitment from the Minister. He is waving his hand, because I am sure he is going to clarify by what is meant by "at some point." Thanks, Mr. Chair.

Debates of , 18th Assembly, 3rd Session (day 22)

Thank you, Mr. Chair. Does that include any environmental monitoring that needs to be done along the corridor in terms of water quality, permafrost stuff, access off the road that might bother wildlife, and those kinds of things? Thanks, Mr. Chair.

Debates of , 18th Assembly, 3rd Session (day 22)

Thanks, Mr. Chair. I just had a general question for the department. Does it have any policies with regard to our infrastructure projects whereby there are quotas or targets set for northern apprentices or trades, or is it just left to the free market to determine? Thanks, Mr. Chair.

Debates of , 18th Assembly, 3rd Session (day 22)

Thank you, Mr. Chair. Yes, that's helpful. I don't really see much here. I'm looking at page 250 in terms of any new grants or contributions, then, to help larger or even community-scale renewable or alternative energy projects. We're just sort of sitting back waiting for federal dollars to rain from heaven? Thanks, Mr. Chair.

Debates of , 18th Assembly, 3rd Session (day 22)

Thanks, Mr. Chair. Yes, I think I get it now. At what point does the department start to look at whether the airport improvement fees can be reduced? Thanks, Mr. Chair.

I'm not sure this is the right section, so is this where the Inuvik to Tuktoyaktuk highway maintenance costs are found? Thanks, Mr. Chair.

Debates of , 18th Assembly, 3rd Session (day 22)

Thanks, Mr. Chair. Yes, my colleague, the MLA for Yellowknife North, asked a number of the questions I was going to ask. I guess, this accumulated surplus, that is just the net surplus? That does not include any drawdown for any of the capital improvements that are going to be made at the airport? Thanks, Mr. Chair.

Debates of , 18th Assembly, 3rd Session (day 22)

Thanks. Now I know how the amount is going to be paid for. Where is the value of the special warrant parked right now? Is it parked just as a GNWT-wide debt in Department of Finance, or is it parked within Infrastructure? Where is that debt parked? Thanks, Mr. Chair.
