Mahsi, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to inform this House that the Pauktuutit Inuit Women's Association will be holding their annual general meeting in Inuvik next week from March 6th to March 10th. The theme of their annual general meeting will be community development.
The 58 to 60 delegates will be doing their regular business and also participating in a series of workshops. One of the key focuses of their workshops is the opportunities in the fashion and clothing industry.
Pauktiitut has been very vocal and very active in women's issues, and very proactive in the area of family violence and child care. Today I want to wish all the delegates a safe journey to Inuvik. I hope that they enjoy Inuvik's hospitality and have very fruitful discussions. Mahsi.
