Mr. Chair, the question I would like to pose to both candidates relates to the question of symbols and heraldry and those things that represent and reflect all of the people of the Northwest Territories. I think I speak for everyone here, Mr. Chair, when I say the new Mace is a stunning piece of work that captures so much of what the new Northwest Territories is about.

There are other symbols, and other tasks associated with this representation. There will be a flag, a coat of arms, and a name. All options that we have already considered in the life of the previous government, and that I strongly and firmly believe should be considered again.

My question to the candidates is; what approach would your government take towards putting those new symbols in place for the new Northwest Territories? Thank you, Mr. Chair.
