Statements in Debates
Mr. Chair, the Tlicho, I know that they have a five-year window and I think it’s extended well beyond that. Has that been finalized? Thank you.
Thanks very much for this information. Just one last one here. Do we categorize at all? I’m wondering what might, if we know, roughly, what proportion might be due to fossil fuels versus asbestos or contaminants of a different nature.
Thanks for the Minister’s comments. I guess I have to say back at you because I’m not, I guess my question is which of those does this office deal with. I’ve also heard good things about the parent counselling during separation and divorce program, but I thought we were talking about custody issues related to family trauma and so on, other than separation. Maybe I could get clarity, if we know where the focus of this office is or if it deals with both of those situations.
Mr. Chair, I just want to confirm that these do not reduce the power. They don’t reduce the underlying power and underlying causes of high power cost. They simply subsidize the rates and cushion the shock as rates go up. Is that correct? Thank you.
Sorry, Mr. Chair, what page are we on?
I think I’m getting it. If I were to ask what our current environmental liabilities are, knowing that the fund is about $44 million would tell me that that’s what our current liabilities are right now. Is that correct? If not, maybe I could find out what the current environmental liabilities are.
Thanks to the Minister. What does that mean? What is the intent of this office? What would good results look like?
Thank you. Now, the Inuvik gas contribution I see $5 million last year, $5.9 million proposed for this year. What is the status of that? Are we expecting that to continue as well? Thank you.
Thanks for that information. And of course, there’s Deline, which is, I think, close to a final agreement, in the Sahtu. With the Tlicho, I believe they have the ability to draw down powers. Have we reached that point? Are they at the point where they’re ready to do that or what’s the situation on that front?
So are we, just for my clarification, booking the value of the estimated cost of remediation or are we booking dollars to pay for the remediation, if you get my drift.
