Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I have three petitions. The first one: I would like to present a petition dealing with the matter of the naming of the new western territory after division. Mr. Speaker, Petition 52-13(3) contains three signatures, and it alleges that the Government of the Northwest Territories retain the Northwest Territories as a name when two separate territories are formed in 1999.
The second petition, Mr. Speaker, deals with funding for community wellness youth programs in the city of Yellowknife. Mr. Speaker, Petition 53-13(3) contains 18 signatures and the petitioners request that the Minister of Health and Social Services grant funding for community wellness programs to the city of Yellowknife in 1996; however, place a condition on the funding that 50 per cent of the allocated funds be designated for youth programs.
Mr. Speaker, the third petition is from the citizens of the city of Yellowknife concerning the matter of funding for community wellness programs. The petitioners request that the Minister of Health and Social Services grant funding for community wellness programs to the city of Yellowknife in 1996; however, place a condition on the funding that 50 per cent of the allocated funds be designated for youth programs.
