Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, I am probably one of the last people to criticize or curtail management ability to get the job done, even if this entails making changes. In one of my first speeches to this Assembly I stated that I do not support the status quo. Changes are necessary to make the business of managing and running government more effective and efficient, and let us get on with it. I am from the school of thought always looking at ways of how do you do something, rather than hearing all the reasons of how not to do anything.

Of course, I do not necessarily agree with everyone on everything, but through talking and discussions we can all make our viewpoints and opinions known. If it eventually comes to a vote, we can vote accordingly.
By allowing us to participate in developing an implementation plan and strategy, all Members will have an opportunity to express their views and those of their constituents.
Mr. Speaker, the honourable Member for Nahendeh, Mr. Antoine, the honourable Member for Aivilik, Mr. Arvaluk, and I have received the full support of our colleagues, and we will accept the invitation from the Government Leader to meet with their representatives to begin the task of reshaping northern government. Mahsi cho.
