Norman Yakeleya

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. My questions are for the Minister of Transportation.

Can the Minister provide me the status of the proposed Bear River bridge?

Can the Minister provide me with the GNWT options that can be examined to financially back step the construction of the Bear River bridge?

Will the Minister provide a breakdown of the cost of construction on the Bear River bridge?
