In one of my other incarnations, I served as general secretary of a coalition of industry, independent power producers, first nations, and 40 local governments in the north of this province. We've been pushing for funding and support of a power line in the northwest, which some of you may have heard of, the northwest power line or Highway 37 project. It was actually part of our recommendation.
Since the recommendation letter was forwarded on August 14, we are very pleased that the federal government to date has chosen to put $130 million towards the construction of this line in the northwest of British Columbia. So one of the most significant elements of our asks has perhaps already been fulfilled, but we wanted to thank you for that.
