    Commissioner Of The Northwest Territories (Hon. George Tuccaro)

    Please be seated. Mr. Speaker, Members of the Legislative Assembly, good afternoon. This marks the last opportunity for me to address this House as Commissioner of the Northwest Territories. My term will come to an end on May 10. It is with profound gratitude and deep respect that I say thank you for your kind support and encouraging words throughout my term. It has been the best six years of my working life to serve the people of the Northwest Territories in this capacity. There have been many highlights and exciting events during my time here, and they will remain as lifelong memories. Thank you to my Deputy Commissioner, Mr. Gerry Kisoun of Inuvik, and my able assistant, Ms. Phila Fyten. My thanks also to my current aide-de-camps, Captain Melanie Parker, here today, and to Captain Jeffrey Knight who accompanied me to official events. To members of the Joint Task Force North Transport Section, thank you for transporting us safely and always on time. Once again, the North has said farewell to many well-known and long-time Northerners who have passed on. My sincere condolences go to their family and friends. Now, as Commissioner of the Northwest Territories, I am pleased to assent to the following bills:

    Bill 1, An Act to Amend the Legislative Assembly and Executive Council Act;

    Bill 2, Supplementary Appropriation Act, (Infrastructure Expenditures), No. 4, 2015-2016;
