Minister’s Statement 20-18(3): Transparency on Resource Royalties

Mr. Speaker, in responding to oral question 7718 (3), I referenced the Bauer report and stated that I thought royalties received by the government of the Northwest Territories would be approximately $83 million a year. I have reviewed the Bauer report and the main estimates and would like to take this opportunity to correct the record. According to the main estimates, nonrenewable resource revenue for 20152016 was $58,346,000, and for the following year was $63,284,000. I apologize for any misunderstanding this may have caused. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
