Thank you, Mr. Chair. My question pertains to forest management. There is a wildland fire dispatch facility in Fort Providence. I wanted to get some clarity in terms of understanding what possibly this facility might be, whether it is a phone booth. Is it a stand-alone building? What is it? Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. I admit it seems like a long-term question, but I have to ask: if the construction is completed for Yellowknife, would those portables possibly be available for the outlying communities, like Fort Providence? Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. Mr. Chair, I just want to clarify the designated $1.5 million for the portables. Is that for two portables? Thank you.

Mahsi, Mr. Speaker.

A regulatory framework for licensed establishments (e.g. "cannabis cafes" or "vape lounges") is outside the scope of the bill. This means that we could not amend the bill to explicitly allow such establishments immediately upon legalization. Still, we recognize that this subject is important to many residents.

Many witnesses, including the Yellowknife Chamber of Commerce, spoke of the economic benefits potentially associated with such establishments. Others, such as the Canadian Cancer Society, raised health concerns, believing "'cannabis cafes would be untenable if any...

Thank you, Mr. Chair. If the Minister is stating that the contract was just awarded, what would be the anticipated completion date of the project? Thank you.

No further questions.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. Yes, I am just trying to understand. There are four portables. Likely they will be, as the Minister stated, available by September 2019.

There will be a construction period. I am just trying to understand: once construction is complete, will there be an effort to demobilize the portables? Is there a process in place of, perhaps, ECE passing it on to Public Works and Services, and would they, at some point, be reallocated to another construction site? Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, I would like to thank the mover, my colleague Mr. Vanthuyne, for leading this initiative. I believe in this legislation that will ban smoking in vehicles with minors. You know, the motion, the intended spirit and purpose of the motion is to protect the well-being and health of children, and that is what the motion tries to set forth. This government in the past has put in place legislation on banning handheld devices in vehicles and also seatbelt laws, so, similarly, this is another step that this government could take forward in ensuring that children don...

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Could the Minister commit to a specific date that he will have the staff meet with the community leadership so that at least they can get a heads-up and ensure that they are prepared for the meeting?

I want to thank the Minister for his reply and, plus, his attendance of our recent Deh Cho tour of the Deh Cho riding. In the letter to the Department of Infrastructure, the Hamlet of Enterprise recommends the installation of rumble strips at the intersection. What is the Minister doing to address this recommendation by local residents?
