Mr. Speaker, I’d like to ask the Minister, if after his inquiries I could possibly have an answer at the end of this week so that I can also mention to the residents of Aklavik that we are working on something here and will hopefully have a solution by the end of this week. Thanks.

Does the committee agree that he brings in his witnesses?

Debates of , 16th Assembly, 2nd Session (day 32)

Mr. Speaker, there is some urgency to this problem, because the barges are coming in, and they’re having problems docking to unload the goods and services.

I’d like to ask the Minister: is there an emergency program that’s out there that the community can access now? It is that season when the barges are coming in. Also, with these barges having problems docking, they’re not able to get their goods and services off.

I’d like to ask the Minister if he could look into this and put some urgency to finding a solution to this problem.
