(Translation) Thank you, Mr. Chairman. First of all, I was able to go to my community with the Minister of Economic Development and Tourism and I was very happy about that. I am sorry that we were stuck in a vehicle. We were trying to push the vehicle for about an hour when we were stuck. I would like to express my gratitude to the Department of Economic Development and the Standing Committee on Finance. The new park, which has been in place since August, is a very scenic place in both winter and summer. People are using that park already. I am sure this is going to be very beneficial to the communities. There are some people who are trying to find jobs. We have to work hard to bring the programs for parks in place to help our people. If we start putting these kinds of programs in place we can start having some jobs available to our people. We are still trying to make these kinds of programs available to Cape Dorset. We do not want to be on social assistance, we want to develop programs so we can have jobs available to our people. The people in my constituency are not the only ones who are on welfare assistance.
By working together with our government, the Minister, the Cabinet and ordinary M.L.A.s, we can start moving forward. Since we have just voted on the N.W.T. Nunavut ratification, we are going to start looking toward our future to see what we have to do and what priorities we have to set. We have to look at our young people who drop out of school. We know that there are people who have certificates and qualifications for certain kinds of jobs, but it would be so much better today if we could look at other people who are disadvantaged, compared to the people who have certificates and qualifications. If we look at those people we can start to move forward. I would like to work closely with the Department of Economic Development and Tourism. If I was just on welfare assistance, I would not be moving forward at all. There are people who will get married and have children, and they are going to have to have some money to move forward in their lives. I would like to start working with the department to try to make economic development work in our communities. Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
