Thank you, Ms. Bisaro. Moving on to questions, I have Mr. Bromley.
Thank you, Mr. Bromley. Premier McLeod.
Thank you, Premier McLeod. Page 4-27, Aboriginal Affairs and Intergovernmental Relations, information item, intergovernmental relations, active positions. Are there any questions?
Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I sense some written questions coming down the pipeline. I appreciate my last opportunity to ask some questions. You heard from this side of the House, you heard will the bleeding stop? Can you assure us, we heard responses, expectation it will be open, we can complete it, and always there could be circumstances. I’m going to make this a very simple question to the Minister. Can the Minister guarantee to the people of the Northwest Territories that this will be the final supplement asked by this government to complete the Deh Cho Bridge?
Thank you, Ms. Bisaro. Moving on with questions I have Mr. Bromley.
Thank you, Premier McLeod. Premier McLeod, do you have witnesses you would like to bring into the House?
Thank you, Ms. Bisaro. Page 2-21, Executive, activity summary, executive operations, operations expenditure summary. Mr. Yakeleya.
Seeing none, page 4-9, Aboriginal Affairs and Intergovernmental Relations, information item, revenue summary. Any questions?
Speaking about the Opportunities Fund, we know that that fund has wound down. This fund had an opportunity of people borrowing against it, or I guess we had the ability to borrow with it, to the tune of about 1.45 percent. With the increase in the borrowing limit, this increased our ability to borrow for large infrastructure. Can the Minister allude to what was the total value in terms of dollars available us with this Opportunities Fund when it was in our control? I’ll ask that first question, Madam Chair.
Could the department give us more details? Is this the long-term contract we have gone in with Blue Cross? Are there measures reporting for performance? Maybe a little bit more details in terms of what this new relationship with Blue Cross is all about.
