Mr. Speaker. I have to say that I am shocked and appalled. It is just unthinkable to me that we would have to hire somebody who has not one minute of northern experience to come north, to do community empowerment in northern communities where it is considerably different than in urban Vancouver. He may have two degrees. My question to the Minister is, how does she expect somebody of that calibre to come north and in less than 700 days do any kind of meaningful work at that senior level? I think it is a travesty, Mr. Speaker, an absolute travesty.
