Dennis Patterson Iqaluit

Mr. Speaker, I just want to briefly speak in favour of the motion. We talk often in this Assembly about fairness and equity and Mr. Morin, particularly, often uses that term. I think it is a laudable goal in all the operations of our government. I believe, simply, that fairness and equity demand that these two communities be recognized, along with the other smaller communities that were recognized in the GNWT infrastructure agreement. Thank you.

The Deputy Speaker Brian Lewis

Thank you very much, Mr. Patterson.
