Mr. Speaker, I should say a few words, as well. I want the other Members to know, and the public as well, that I was one of the MLAs who, for the past two years, have been quietly, sometimes loudly, promoting their own candidates for this position. And through the months and years I had my heart set on my own candidate. We had a session in caucus where we had interviews and discussions amongst ourselves last week to finally make a decision. I want the Members and the public and my own constituents to know that I am in full support of the decision that the caucus had made, and I will be giving my full support to Betty Harnum in carrying out her duties on behalf of the Legislature. I want to make that known. A decision has been made, and I am not going to be dwelling on my own personal agenda that I have been carrying around for the last couple of years. I will be pushing ahead to see what we can do in this very important field. Thank you.
