Debates of , 19th Assembly, 2nd Session (day 95)

So in the Deh Cho, we had flooding. We addressed those already. We've already dealt with it. But, again, I can't tell you what's going to happen, predicted, like if it's going to be there. So we feel right now with our budget we are close to being able to do it and move forward on it. But if we have a bad flood season as we did last year, then we may have to come back again. But right now, we feel that with the money we have allocated in the budget, we should be able to meet the needs moving forward. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Member’s Statement 933-19(2): Eulogy for Rita Rowe
Debates of , 19th Assembly, 2nd Session (day 95)

Thank you, Madam Speaker, and I would like to thank the member for the Deh Cho for the beautiful eulogy of Evelyn Krutko. She was an amazing woman.

Thank you, Madam Speaker. Rita was born on a small farm in Lonesome Pine, Alberta, to Mary and Arthur Lockhart on the 27th of June, 1935. She was the youngest daughter of 14 siblings. Her mother passed away when she was 12 years old. After her mother passed away, she moved in with her sister, Eva Morbick in Edmonton. Rita went looking for work at the age of 16 which found her on a plane heading to Yellowknife to start her adventure. Her first job...

Thank you. So we do have enforcement. We have individuals that reach out to our departments, our regional offices, and we inspect it and that. But for that detail of how the process is, I'll ask the deputy minister, with your permission, to provide more information. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Debates of , 19th Assembly, 2nd Session (day 95)

We can give a commitment to what the process is and how we're doing it. But for communications, before I make that commitment, I would like to get the deputy minister to explain what's going on. It hasn't been radio silence from my point of view. Maybe there is some been some challenges and maybe it's just the information that I've been receiving, and maybe it's because I've been talking with the Tlicho government on this very topic. So with your permission, I'll go to the deputy minister. Thank you.

Debates of , 19th Assembly, 2nd Session (day 95)

Thank you, Mr. Chair. Mr. Chair, so when we increased it, it's based on applications, when harvesters submit their applications, and that's how we come up with our numbers. Right now it's based on that. But for further detail, I'll turn to the deputy minister to explain if we have overexpenditure and what happens moving forward on that. Thank you.

Debates of , 19th Assembly, 2nd Session (day 95)

For that detail, I'll turn it to deputy minister. Thank you.

Debates of , 19th Assembly, 2nd Session (day 95)

For that detail, I'll turn to the deputy minister. I don't know if we have that detail but we'll turn to the deputy minister.

Debates of , 19th Assembly, 2nd Session (day 95)

Thank you. So the road project got done quicker. We have zero to 12 when we're working with the Tlicho government. We are trying to work with the Tlicho government to set up a plan. We're in a process of working with them, and so we are working with the Tlicho government. They've identified issues and concerns. And so right now, we have zero to 12 and that's what we're working with the Tlicho government. For the people to get the permits, they go through with that process.

The other part of the road, and I don't know the exact mileage of it, but it's from 13 to the end of the road, we are...

Debates of , 19th Assembly, 2nd Session (day 95)

The timeline, I'll turn to the deputy minister for giving the detailed timeline realizing the time. Thank you, Mr. Chair.
