Written Question 27-19(2): Slave Geological Province Corridor

Merci, Monsieur le President. I have two written questions.

The first one is on the Slave Geological Province Corridor. My questions are for the Minister of Infrastructure. Cabinet's Mandate 2019-2023 proposes to make strategic infrastructure investments, including the Slave Geological Province Corridor. Could the Minister describe the phases of the proposed Slave Geological Province Corridor as found in the Mandate 2019-2023, including the following:

Identify the time frames of construction, how each phase of construction will be financed, and whom the corridor will actually serve;

Identify how each phase of the corridor will be operated and financed;

State the calculated costs for each phase of the corridor, including a breakdown of construction and anticipated operations costs and the engineering class for such cost estimates; and

State how caribou and their key habitat have been considered in the preferred location for each of the phases of the corridor.
