Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I'd like to start with Mr. Heald from the Manitoba Wildlife Federation.
The Kivalliq hydro-fibre link is a major project to connect Manitoba Hydro transmission lines to communities in Nunavut so that they can stop burning diesel. This project will also include fibre optic cables so that people in Nunavut can enjoy high-speed Internet access.
Can you speak to the effects of this legislation on projects such as that, given that it includes 1,200 kilometres of transmission lines in northern Manitoba?
