Déclarations dans les débats
I am glad to hear that the Minister is open to suggestions on how to better package and tailor programs offered to the communities. In this case, on the issue of capital preservation, I think it will be an entertaining suggestion to look at loan guarantees to be ironed out in the new strategy.
Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. There are two members of the NHL Alumni team who are with us here today, and proceeding on to Deline, birthplace of hockey, to play a couple of games this weekend. I would like to welcome Bryan Trottier and Tyler Kennedy to our beautiful Northwest Territories. Also, recognize Mr. Tom R. Williams accompanying the Group of Seven, I believe it is, president of the Inuvik Housing Corporation. Mahsi, Mr. Speaker.
Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Following up with my other colleagues here on Housing, my question to the Minister of Housing is on programs or additional programs. Cataloguing the survey is under way, and I suspect it will be followed by a review. On the idea of preservation of capital, is the Minister's office willing to entertain or have a loan guarantee program to high-credit applicants so that they can be eligible to own their own home, considering the life of the CMHC program is one-mortgage term? Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Deline is the birthplace of hockey. I would like to recognize the community of Deline for their first Deline Men's Hockey Tournament this weekend. Deline is also known for birthplace of hockey and proud to announce that we have Bryan Trottier, who played 1,279 games in the NHL and is a member of seven Stanley Cup teams as well as a player and a coach and was also elected to the National Hockey League Hall of Fame. He played for the New York Islanders and the Pittsburgh Penguins.
Tyler Kennedy played 527 games in the NHL with Pittsburgh, New York Islanders, San Jose, and...
Thank you, Mr. Chair. Just looking at the fibre optic link, if you total over the last few years, it comes out to roughly $30 million. The total project is $18 million and this year 2017-18, it doesn't really amount to that. Is the rest being identified as holdback until the completion of this project is done? Thank you.
Thank you, Mr. Chair. My question is on page 114, the implementation budgeted number that reduced a bit. Is there sufficient moneys coming up for this coming fiscal year for the implementation related to the Deline agreement? Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Now, we have $15,000 and some supports here. Will the Minister provide some dates for a stakeholder's meeting?
Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Adding to my Member's statement earlier on the preservation of the Deline culture and heritage by establishing a library similar to ours, but probably a little bit smaller, my first question to the Minister of Education, Culture and Employment is: are there appropriate funding support and programs for this initiative? Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
Thank you, Mr. Chair. Is it expected on the operational side for 2017-18, assuming everything goes right, to have a clean bill of health, I would say, for an unclaim, unleave on this program transferred to our books within the fiscal year? Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Thank you, Mr. Chair. My question is on 132, program detail on the bottom there, other program costs, $6,000,077. I just want a little explanation on what is defined as "other"? Thank you, Mr. Chair.
