Yes, Mr. Speaker, I know it was a recommendation because I drafted the motion. That's why it was a recommendation. Maybe the Minister could tell me when he thinks the Executive Council will have the opportunity to review the said motion for the act and when the amendments through legislation will come into place. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I will be pleased to give the Member a more definite date in October when we come back to this House. By that time, we should have had the opportunity to review the motion and look into it. Thank you.

Yes, Mr. Speaker. I don't know if I'll be around in October. I wonder if there is a quicker time frame that the Premier thinks that this most important motion may come into place. Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. As the Member is aware, there is a long list of legislation to be dealt with and we have to review that in the context of that legislation. The Member is also aware, Mr. Speaker, that the House starts up again in the fall after the summer break; so it may seem like a long time, but that's the next available time to get back to the Member, because I know that I won't be back to him on this issue while this House is sitting this spring. Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I appreciate the amount of legislation and I accept the Premier saying that it will be October. Will the Premier then confirm with me that, in actuality, when October does come, the Executive Council will definitely take a serious look at it as stated in the aforesaid motion? Thank you, Mr. Speaker.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. The Member is correct, I just returned this morning from my meeting with the Prime Minister of Canada. I came out of the meeting
fairly excited and feeling very comfortable that he understood the issues of the Northwest Territories. I would be willing to make a full report to this House tomorrow in a Minister's statement. We arrived back at 10:00 this morning. As we speak, my staff is working on a Minister's statement for tomorrow. Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. My question is to the Minister of MACA, the Honourable Manitok Thompson. I know there are many attempts from all over the world to go to the North Pole and Magnetic Pole. These people are not used to our climate and are not usually prepared for our northern climate. I understand this government spent over $500,000 last year to rescue most of these people who attempted to travel to the North Pole and Magnetic Pole. This spending is not covered through their insurance for the people who are attempting to travel to the North Pole. How is this money being covered by this government; how is it retrieved by this government? Thank you, Mr. Speaker.

Question 245-13(3): Chief Julius School Gymnasium Funding
Item 6: Oral Questions

David Krutko Mackenzie Delta
Thank you, Mr. Speaker. My question is to the Minister of Education with regard to the Chief Julius School in Fort McPherson and his department's refusal to enable them to build a full-size gymnasium, based on the size of the community. As I said in my opening statement, a larger gymnasium at this time would give the region the ability to host the next Arctic Winter Games, since Fort McPherson is the second-largest community in the region.
Basically, it will assist Inuvik to qualify to host the next Arctic Winter Games, having the proper facilities within the region.
A larger gymnasium will encourage students and others to use the facility; giving our children the opportunity to do more things with their time. It will also allow the region to host large regional and territorial events in the region. Would the Minister and his government colleagues actively seek and pursue additional funds to ensure that the Chief Julius School has a full-size gymnasium? Thank you.
