Thank you, Mr. Speaker. It was actually a constituent of mine who recommended that. Normal people just flash their lights for oncoming traffic if there is an RMCP radar set up, but I think we should do it for buffalo. I think it would be more important. The other question I have is along the highway, there are signs. When you come by every community, it says…or even not by a community, it can be out in the middle of nowhere. It says, if you are in an emergency, phone this number: 669-1111. I was just curious of all the expense that we went to to put those signs up along the highway, how...

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, today my questions are for the Honourable Michael McLeod, the Minister of Transportation. I often embark on a drive between Hay River and Yellowknife and vice versa. It is always an adventure. It won’t be such an adventure when the bridge goes in, but it is always interesting now. The Minister, in the past, and his department have been very responsive to suggestions that might keep the travelling public on the highways more informed of the condition of the roads and the status of the ferry crossing and so on.

Thank you.

Thank you, Ms. Lee. Minister Dent.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, we all know, on this side of the House, that it is the nature of the private sector that there may be, from time to time, competing interests amongst competing businesses, and perhaps even competing communities, on this. Again, it isn’t always possible to share all of your business's plans on the floor of this House. In a general sense, Mr. Speaker, since there may be people who have already expressed interest and there may be other people potentially interested, I would like to ask the Minister if he feels that he is familiar with what Hay River has to...
