Indigenous and Northern Affairs committee  Maybe I could start. The cost—and this is a number from the MAC—is two to 2.5 times higher, including capital costs and operating costs. It's about that much.

Indigenous and Northern Affairs committee  What that means is.... Let's say that in Quebec, ore body at 0.5 grams per tonne could be economically viable. In the north, it would need to be a minimum of 1.5 grams, but even that's too low. The fact is that the gold and the minerals are locked into the north because it's too expensive to mine them.

Indigenous and Northern Affairs committee  The first 100 kilometres was done between 2007 and 2010 from Baker Lake to Meadowbank. Then we did 30 kilometres in 2013 from Rankin Inlet to Meliadine. Last year we built 70 kilometres from Meadowbank to Amaruq.

Indigenous and Northern Affairs committee  It has a major impact. That starts with the kids staying at school for two extra hours. It also affects our employees. Sometimes employees are happy to go to sites to have a break, to have a room close to the camp where they can be by themselves. When they go back to the house and there are 15 members, how can they rest?

Indigenous and Northern Affairs committee  Up to now, we have built 200 kilometres of road in Nunavut, so we have the longest road. It is approximately $1 million per kilometre, so it's $200 million.

Indigenous and Northern Affairs committee  Zero. It was all on our own.

Indigenous and Northern Affairs committee  It was $200 million.

Indigenous and Northern Affairs committee  We paid everything on our own.

Indigenous and Northern Affairs committee  Do you mean about the runways?

Indigenous and Northern Affairs committee  We have, in fact, 10 planes a week going to Nunavut from Montreal and Abitibi. Five of them are going to Meadowbank and five of them are going to Meliadine. We are using the municipality airport at Rankin, but we have our own airport at Meadowbank.

Indigenous and Northern Affairs committee  It's not all fixed yet, but we haven't heard anything about the exemption right now. On the electricity side, it looks clearer now. The base was going to be done using a genset with LNG, which we cannot use, because logistically you cannot bring LNG up north. We're going to pay for electricity beyond what we could do with the LNG genset.

Indigenous and Northern Affairs committee  That needs to go through the process—

Indigenous and Northern Affairs committee  We are used to those types of processes. That is going to take time. We already started the environmental assessment. As we look to build those towers close to our project, almost all the environmental assessments have been done. We need to go through consultation, as with other projects.

Indigenous and Northern Affairs committee  It is something special.

Indigenous and Northern Affairs committee  Unfortunately, I cannot answer for the corporate tax, but we could provide the answer later.
