Thank you. I see that there's potential for ICIP funding, and I heard that we were making a decision there. Can I get a somewhat answer of how much ICIP funding we're expecting, and if we can't get a dollar amount, is it a 75 percent expectation of capital funding? Thank you, Mr. Chair.

I think we forgot to vote.

Yes, thank you, Mr. Chair. Can I get well, this says 20242025 for completion, you know, which I assume would mean construction, you know, next fiscal, probably pretty soon. Can I just get an update of when the estimated completion for this project is or whether we're on track and on time, on budget. Thank you.

That's great, I'm happy to hear that, very exciting. I'll go walk the trail when it's done.

My other question is I know that I brought this up before, when you kind of reach the end of Ingraham Trail, you hit Tibbitt Lake, and then you kind of just hit an ice road, and often there has been garbage, there has been the shortage of parking. And, you know, I think a lot of tourists they go drive the Ingraham Trail because there's not a lot to do and, you know, they want to go for a drive and then you just kind of hit this area that ends in nothing. And I've had requests for some sort of garbage can...

Yes, thank you, Madam Speaker. My understanding is that the YKDFN is in support of this, in fact it is one of the steps that is part of the boundary change where the city of Yellowknife is actually agreed to take land out of their municipal boundary and give it to the YKDFN, because right now the City of Yellowknife actually has quite a bit of their land in their land withdrawal in their boundaries, which I don't think is wanted or appropriate.

But I guess my question to the Minister is, you know, we have a new council coming in and they, this was very much an election issue as it has been an...

Thank you, Mr. Chair. Yeah, I guess just my last question is there any chance that the feds will give us any money for this? You know, maybe it seems like something CanNor would be interested in. It certainly will have a big economic impact on our minerals industry. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thank you, Madam Speaker. I am not actually really sure who is the lead on transferring the land to the City of Yellowknife. I think that MACA kind of writes the process but then lands at the end of the day, you know, has to do the work of getting it over there. So my question is for I guess the Minister of Lands on when we can expect the bulk land transfer to the City of Yellowknife to be complete? Thank you

Thank you. I'm sure I'll ask this question a couple more times to make sure that's all on track and we can, you know, finally be the well, get have every jurisdiction in Canada have online map staking.

I see you're asking for $100,000. I'm assuming that this system costs a lot more than that. I mean, it would be nice if it didn't. But can someone give me the estimated total cost for the mineral administration registry system? Thank you.

I don't think I've ever got to go first. I like this Speaker.

Madam Speaker, I was at the city council for Yellowknife election forums, and I kept having déjà vu, because it sounded like the exact same forum I was at in 2018. Everyone there was talking about the bulk land transfer to the GNWT to the City of Yellowknife. And I thought to myself, wait, didn't we solve this problem? Isn't there a clearer process in place for transferring land? Well, I guess not, Madam Speaker. I'll have questions for the Minister of Lands/MACA on why we can't give those poor councillors something else to talk...

No further questions. Thank you
