Thank you, Mr. Speaker. That was the first time since November of 1995 that I sought unanimous consent. I appreciate it. Thank you, fans, thank you.

Mr. Speaker, in continuing my statement, the work of Lynn Fogwill, a resident of Yellowknife, has to be acknowledged, and the work she has done with the NWT Literacy Council. I would also like to take this opportunity to thank her for her tremendous work over the past several years. Mr. Gzowski's golf tournaments have raised over $4 million for literacy to date, and of that, $297,103 in the Northwest Territories.

Mr. Speaker, Mr. Peter Gzowski has many good friends in Iqaluit, like long-time CBC radio personality, Mr. Jonah Kelly, and the one and only, Abe Okpik. The Discovery Lodge, in Iqaluit, has generously agreed to be corporate sponsor and will be donating complimentary rooms for the visiting celebrities. As well, First Air has been very generous in providing air passes for the celebrities to fly from Ottawa to Iqaluit. As in the past, NWT Air continues to be the major sponsor of the tournament in the Yukon and the Northwest Territories.

Mr. Speaker, I would like to take this opportunity to officially invite you, the Premier and the Members of the Assembly, to come to Iqaluit and participate in this important fund-raiser for literacy in the Northwest Territories. As a footnote, one of the major organizers of the tournament in Iqaluit is one of our greatest advocates for literacy, our regional librarian, Miss Yvonne Earle, who has been issued a lay-off notice, and I will be questioning the Minister of Education later today on this matter. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
