Moving on with questions I have Mr. Moses.

There has been a lot of activity lately here in the ITI sector. Where I’m going with this is that our international exposure has now heightened the awareness of many other countries possibly wishing to use Yellowknife as a destination for their air buses. Edelweiss Air was one of those potentials that were out of Zurich. There were some complications a number of years ago looking at runway length and other, I guess, barriers to looking at increasing our exposure of our airport system to the national and international audience. Can the Minister indicate to the House here if there are ongoing...

Thank you, Mr. Schauerte. Mr. Hawkins.

Thank you, Mr. Hawkins. For that we’ll go to Mr. Williams.

I do appreciate the Minister’s reply, but this is why we’re still asking the same questions. The public has yet to have seen these.

It appears that the Department of Transportation almost forgot about the $12 million that has been advanced to this project in preparation for such a cost estimate for the federal government. Can the Minister of Transportation indicate if this $12 million is included in the $299 million cost estimate? If not, why?

Thanks to the Minister. With all the industrial development that’s anticipated in the Sahtu region, does the department anticipate a much bigger increase in marine traffic or activity, and is this reflected in this year’s budget?

Okay. Thank you, Ms. Bisaro. I’ll take that as a comment. The Minister has already replied to that. Moving on with questions I have Mr. Hawkins.

Thank you, Ms. Bisaro. Minister McLeod.

Can the Minister indicate to the House here when was the last time those airport fees were reviewed?

Thank you, Mr. Hawkins. Minister McLeod.
