I think housing, absolutely, is number one. As well, small businesses across the territory do not have the same resiliency that you would see with the larger box stores you have in the south. For municipalities, an increase to the gas tax or even a doubling of the gas tax certainly would be beneficial.
In my own community of 2,500 people, the financial impact in the past two months has meant increased spending and loss of revenue, which has cost our municipality about $180,000. That's very significant for our community, and for smaller communities across the north the impact is going to be just as great.
Across the territory, all of our schools have shut down. They're going to online education. We don't have broadband in all of the communities, and even in my community, where we do have broadband, it's not throughout the whole community.
We need broadband across Canada. We need housing. We need infrastructure. We need money for the municipalities.
