Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I would like to quote the Honourable Nellie Cournoyea from page 45 of the unedited Hansard of Thursday, November 18. Her answer was, "Mr. Speaker, the decision and the option chosen was by the Minister of MACA who sought the advice of Cabinet." I recognize that the former Minister of MACA made the decision to close the town of Iqaluit, but it was upon the advice of Cabinet, according to the unedited Hansards.

Therefore, I would like to ask the Premier why was it not part of the advice -- that she stated in the House, according to the unedited Hansard -- to tell the local MLA about such a significant decision made by one of her Ministers? Why was it not part of that advice when they were discussing this issue? Thank you.
