Mahsi cho, Mr. Speaker. I have a written question for the Minister of Transportation regarding operations and maintenance of Highway No. 4. Can the Minister tell me:

What is the total length of the all season section of Highway No. 4?

What is the total paved or chipsealed section of Highway No. 4?

What was the Department of Transportation’s O&M budget for Highway No. 4 for the 2004–05, 2005–06 and 2006–07 fiscal years?

What is the total number of full-time residents on Highway No. 4 according to the last census?
