Thanks for the question, Mr. Strahl. Also, thank you for your help on the ground during those floods.
We have no access. Mr. Ned probably knows a little bit about this as well.
We have two areas that are utilized by first nations, DFO, RCMP, COS, SARs and recreational fishing. Bulger Road is not launchable. [Technical difficulty--Editor] I brought these concerns up in November that we needed to do something, to anybody and everybody I could talk to, and nothing has been worked on. We actually do not have access for over 60 kilometres of river between Agassiz and Yale. It's not safe access, and they were not very good boat launches to begin with.
That is a big concern. We are running up against the clock here to have at least minimal repairs so that it's safely launchable, and then maybe some bigger projects down the road. As water comes up, we're not going to be able to safely do the work that's needed there. Should there be an issue with any flooding—just in general for safety—we're not going to be able to get people in the water. It's something that happens year after year, especially between Agassiz and Yale. It's more of a remote area, and our members have been called first to the scene many times when there are incidents out there, including helping DFO with their broken-down boats.
We need access, and we need to get on that right away.
