QUESTION 706-17(5): FIRE SUPPRESSION CREWS
Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Since 2007 we have not had a suppression crew in the community of Tsiigehtchic. I brought this up yesterday in Committee of the Whole, but for the record I’d like to ask the Minister, will he work with the community of Tsiigehtchic to enter into an agreement to have a suppression crew in the community this coming summer? Thank you.
Thank you, Mr. Blake. The Minister of Environment and Natural Resources, Mr. Miltenberger.
Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I listened to the Member’s statement about bullying with interest. In regard to his question, the answer is yes.
Will the Minister ensure that we have this agreement in place so that we can have a crew in the community early in the season, like June? Thank you.
In follow up on our discussion in the Committee of the Whole yesterday, yes.
Thank you, Mr. Miltenberger. Member for Yellowknife Centre, Mr. Hawkins.
