(Translation) Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I too would like to offer my condolences in the loss of a close relative. Having gone through a similar time, I can sympathize. On behalf of the people of the NWT, we are representatives of the people in our communities, and I think sometimes we are seen as cold hearted or unfeeling, but I would like to remind the people of the NWT that as elected Members to this Legislature, Mr. Speaker, we have to be reminded of our constituents that they, too, have feelings and they have compassion. As the Member for Natilikmiot, my friend John Todd, our friend, his relatives and people in his community, our thoughts are with you and you will be in our prayers. I wanted to express that condolence. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
