Thank you, Mr. Chairman. The critical issues that this government has to communicate, not only with its employees, but people of the Northwest Territories, our constituents, southern Canada and even internationally, that the Northwest Territories is coming of age. It is the last frontier of this country. We are ready and we are on the verge of moving ahead to improve our economic conditions in the Northwest Territories. We are open for business, but when you come into the Northwest Territories to do business that means partnerships and that means that you do business with northern residents and northern residents have to benefit. As well, we do in the Northwest Territories have social conditions and social problems that double, statistically, the rest of the country, but we are working to solve those problems and we are moving ahead on the creation of two new territories. So there are many issues underneath, for example, improving economic conditions, improving social conditions and preparing for the creation of two new territories.
Mr. Miltenberger, I could be talking for a long time about each and every one of those, and I think it is very clear in the south we communicate that the Northwest Territories is a political entity on its own. We do have our own Legislature, we are capable of making our own decisions in the north and we are able and willing to do that, and we will do it. We do not need bureaucrats in Ottawa to do that for us. We are at the table with the other provincial jurisdictions, and we plan on staying there and making sure our voice is heard and the message from the north is heard. Thank you.
