Member’s Statement on Dempster Highway Widening and Resurfacing Projects

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, during this summer in the Delta region we had a lot of rain, similar to the last number of years. It was looking like the widening on the Dempster would not be completed, but, Mr. Speaker, luckily in September we had about three weeks of great weather and the majority of the work was completed.

Mr. Speaker, I'd also like to take this time to thank the Department of Transportation for resurfacing the road between Tsiigehtchic and Wrangling River. Mr. Speaker, this has made the highway much safer. Mr. Speaker, there is a lot more work to be done on this section, but I know it will happen over the next few years as this area is the next in line to be widened through the Building Canada Fund. I will have a couple of questions for the Minister later today. Thank you.

Speaker: MR. SPEAKER
