Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I want to follow up on the serious issues that I was raising.
Putting aside the fact that Transport Canada failed to notify this community about a contaminated site, it bears repeating that there is a children's playground close by and that children are playing in that water. This is seven years after Transport Canada was privy to the information that they failed to disclose the findings of the reports included in the Millennium EMS Solutions study.
One of the calls that the nations are asking for is to immediately present a plan and funding to allow for the evacuation by water of Fort Chipewyan in the event of a natural disaster, a wildfire, while the remediation and repair work that needs to happen is undertaken to install a temporary dock. I'm wondering if the minister can commit to do this for this community and make sure they are safe in the event of these kinds of wildfires.
