Thank you, Mr. Speaker. A question to the Minister of Justice. Over the summer, a number of communities in the N.W.T. have lost members due to drowning. In my constituency alone, we lost one elder and two young men.
At the present time, the federal law states that every vessel must carry one life jacket per person on board. It does not state that they have to be worn. Mr. Speaker, I would like to ask the Minister of Justice if he has ever pursued a law to make it mandatory to wear life jackets in a boat in the N.W.T.? Thank you.
