Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Thank you, colleagues. When objective decisions must be made about the allocation of skills, resources or opportunities, it must be very difficult for the Premier to detach herself from her portfolio obligations and consider the big picture.

Mr. Speaker, being a Cabinet Minister is hard work, both physically and emotionally. We need our Cabinet Ministers to share the load so they can be healthy, Mr. Speaker. We are very concerned that the Premier feels she needs to carry such a significant share of the Cabinet's work. To help us better understand this, Members will be following up with some questions to the Premier later today. Thank you.
