Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, it is nice to see that the departments are communicating with one another on a really politically sensitive issue like the Dene K’onia facility and the relocation of the TTC, but, Mr. Speaker, when were Regular Members of this House going to be let in on the fact that the plan was to demolish Dene K’onia, a facility in Hay River, to accommodate the construction of a new TTC in Hay River? When were you going to let us know? You are the Minister responsible for the Financial Management Board. When were you going to let us know that this was the case, Mr...
