Samuel Gargan Deh Cho

Just for the record, Mr. Chairman, I get a bit confused when the definition "Deh Cho" is used out of context, if you want to call it that. It is either the constituency of Deh Cho or it isn't. If it is in the Fort Smith region, put Fort Smith various, so we eliminate the confusion. Quite frankly, I am disappointed. You didn't mention Providence, Kakisa or Hay River Reserve. I just want to make sure that maybe next year you will use something else instead of something that brings joy to my heart and then all the sudden it just drops.
