Thank you, Madam Speaker. My question is to the Minister of Justice. I was a little disappointed that he wasn't in the House in the two previous days because I had promised a local businessman on Monday that I would raise the issue of shoplifting with the Minister of Justice. I believe all retailers in the city here assume they are going to lose a little bit of money because of shoplifting. My question to the Minister is this -- it is a very simple question -- is stealing still against the law in the Northwest Territories?
