Thank you, Mr. Speaker-elect, and congratulations on your position. To both individuals who want to become Premier, thank you very much for stepping up and being leaders for our new government.

During the 17^th Assembly there were some challenging negotiations with Aboriginal groups as they were trying to settle the process. In the Nahendeh riding we have two that are very close to being ratified, according to the Dehcho grand chief and Acho Dene negotiating team. However, it seems to be that the Government of the Northwest Territories seems to be the one putting up the barriers.

Therefore, can you please tell me what you will do differently so that these two processes and others in the Northwest Territories can be signed and ratified in the 18^th Assembly, so that we can have clarity and certainty in the Northwest Territories? Thank you.
