Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, I would like to start off by saying hello to Floyd Roland, his wife and kids up in Inuvik, and my wife and kids in Iqaluit.

Mr. Speaker, I presented myself to be auctioned off for one hour of my time listening to any constituent who would buy me. Yes, Mr. Speaker, I was bought and sold. To keep Ed Picco quiet for one hour cost a well-known Iqaluit businessman $1,000. I would like to thank Mr. Kenn Harper for that.

Mr. Speaker, I am today inviting the Honourable John Todd to come to the next Nunavut Trade Show so that he can finally say that he kept me quiet and we hope it is for more than $1,000, as all the money raised goes to Iqaluit day cares and the Baffin Chamber of Commerce for charity. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
