Fred Koe Inuvik

Mr. Speaker, I would like to present a copy of Petition No. 9-12(7) dealing with the matter of the need of a senior citizens' facility in the town of Inuvik. Mr. Speaker, this petition contains 455 signatures; the petitioners' request: "Whereas there is a need for the elders of our community, we, the people of Inuvik, want the Government of the Northwest Territories to implement a senior citizens' facility into the five-year capital plan."

Mr. Speaker, the original petition was submitted by mail to the honourable Rebecca Mike when she was Minister of Social Services and I don't believe the petition was ever tabled in this House. So, I'm taking the opportunity to table it today. Mahsi.
