Please be seated. Prior to proceeding with the orders of the day, I would like to mention and recognize the Pages that we have with us today. We have Pages from three Yellowknife schools: St. Patrick High School; St. Joseph School; and William McDonald Junior High School. Over the years these schools have provided us with excellent young people as Pages.

Today however, we have also with us three young people from outside the capital. We have Hilu Scottie and Abraham Iglookyouak, students from Baker Lake, and Amy Duffy, a student from Coral Harbour. These students have been sponsored by the Members for Kivallivik and Aivilik, who have afforded these young people a chance to travel to Yellowknife, not only to observe the Assembly in action but to actually work with Members for a week. I am supportive of this initiative by Mr. Arngna'naaq and Mr. Arvaluk and would like to see more of our young people involved with the running of the Legislature. Our young people are the future Members of this Assembly.

Welcome to all the Pages, and thank you for taking time away from your studies to study us.

---Applause

Orders of the day for Wednesday, February 12, 1992. Item 3, Ministers' statements. Mr. Pollard.
