WRITTEN QUESTION 9-16(4): RENEWABLE ENERGY AND COST OF LIVING INITIATIVES IN THE SAHTU REGION

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. My questions are for the Minister of Industry, Tourism and Investment.

Can the Minister provide to me in detail what renewable energy initiatives are planned for the Sahtu region in the next two years?

Will the Minister provide to me a comprehensive alternate energy plan that will reduce the cost of living in the Sahtu in the next two years?

Will the Minister of ITI outline how the department will work with the Arctic Energy Alliance to reduce the cost of living in the Sahtu; for example, training residents of the Sahtu to be certified energy advisors?

Can the Minister provide to me a final report on the upcoming hydro symposium and an action plan to their recommendation?
