Thank you Mr. Speaker. I would like to recognize today one of my constituents, who is now temporarily residing in Yellowknife, Pat Thomas, the president of the Northwest Territories Teachers Association.

And I would also like to recognize Lydia Bardak who is here today. Lydia is the executive director of the NWT Council for the Disabled. Her assistant was here, I wanted to recognize here too. After spending the summer on crutches, I have new appreciation for the work these people do, and I would like to recognize them today.
