Seamus Henry Yellowknife South

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. My question will be to the Minister Responsible for Resources, Wildlife and Economic Development.

The business community and the City of Yellowknife should also be acknowledged for their part in supporting this project. The businesses have been patiently waiting and in many cases very uncomfortable through this negotiating period.

This is now over and I wish all many prosperous opportunities with the benefits that will hopefully flow from this project. I would also welcome BHP to Yellowknife and hope that they find our community hospitable and welcoming as I once did.

My question to the Minister is, are there any further negotiations needed between BHP and the Government of the Northwest Territories to fulfil their requirements to proceed with the development. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
