Thank you, Mr. Speaker, and thanks to the Minister for that information update. I can see our -- my constituents are getting very happy. I see the smiles.

My next question is will the GNWT work with the communities of the Sahtu so that they are ready for this project? Mahsi.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Low water solutions. Mr. Speaker, there is no better time than the present for us to work together with the federal government to realize the dream that is fully completing the Mackenzie Valley Highway, or MVH. Mr. Speaker, becoming a reality, the MVH campaign plan will involve the federal engagements with our Member of Parliament, Cabinet Minister, GNWT envoy to Ottawa, and Sahtu Secretariat Incorporated MOU arrangement. This next step is overwhelming and, more importantly, extremely encouraging.

Mr. Speaker, we are in the infancy of a new federal Liberal government...
