Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I would like to recognize the former Member for Yellowknife Centre, Mr. Brian Lewis, and thank him for the dedicated years that he spent in this House; that's one person.

I would like to also recognize several of my constituents who were great supporters: June Greenlaw and Wendy Colpitts; and a real precious person to me -- I'm not sure if she's still in the gallery, but someone who is very dear to me and is my biggest support -- my lovely wife, Margaret. Thank you.

---Applause
