Thank you. Mr. Speaker, my question will be directed to the Minister of Municipal and Community Affairs.
Every two years, summer games are held in various locations across North America. I believe they are called north American aboriginal summer games. This year, these games are being held in Prince Albert, Saskatchewan. Members are aware that this year has also been declared the year of indigenous people, worldwide. It is important, this year in particular, to participate in sports and cultural events for aboriginal people. Mr. Speaker, I understand the Yukon territory is sending approximately 125 athletes to participate in these games in Prince Albert. Can the Minister assure the House that athletes of the Northwest Territories will be given the opportunity to participate in this international sporting event?
