This is an area our government is trying to adjust for Rankin Inlet, specifically.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"7316267\" data-originallang=\"en\">There's going to be heavy investment that we're putting toward the water infrastructure, recognizing that there's a great need in this particular community. It's not just about turning the tap water on, but also the growth the communities are experiencing around other facilities that are being built or are slated to be built.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"7316268\" data-originallang=\"en\">In the long haul, the water treatment plant was in need of an upgrade, so that will be part of the process. We're looking at a three-pronged approach to Rankin Inlet.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"7316269\" data-originallang=\"en\">To answer the question, yes, we have response plans in Kangiqliniq, as well as in other communities, to ensure they know what to do in case the tap water runs out.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"7316270\" data-originallang=\"en\">Thank you.</p>",

C'est un point que notre gouvernement essaie d'ajuster pour Rankin Inlet, en particulier.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"7316267\" data-originallang=\"en\">Nous allons investir massivement dans l'infrastructure hydraulique, car nous savons qu'il existe un besoin important dans cette collectivit\u00e9 particuli\u00e8re. Il ne s'agit pas seulement d'amener l'eau au robinet, mais aussi de tenir compte de la croissance que connaissent les collectivit\u00e9s autour d'autres installations qui sont en cours de construction ou dont la construction est pr\u00e9vue.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"7316268\" data-originallang=\"en\">\u00c0 long terme, l'usine de traitement des eaux avait besoin d'\u00eatre modernis\u00e9e, et cela fera partie du processus.
