Thank you, Mr. Speaker. My question is directed to the Minister of Education, Culture and Employment Programs, subsequent to my Member's statement that I made earlier in this particular sitting. There are many young people across the north, especially in remote communities, who have big dreams. They would like to get a good education, jobs and raise a family. Because they are living in remote communities, they are not able to fulfil their dreams, to a degree. Our system is partly to blame for that. As I indicated, Mr. Speaker, the current apprenticeship program does not allow the potential students the opportunity to get a good instructor who is a qualified journeyman. What is the Minister's position on providing more accessible apprenticeship programs for potential students who are residing in remote areas of the Northwest Territories? Thank you.
