Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, I rise today in an area of sadness. Mr. Speaker, I was informed last night, upon phoning home, that a respected elder in our community of Inuvik had passed on a couple of days ago. Mr. Speaker, Mrs. Effie Rogers was born in the Delta, lived a hard life and raised a large family. It is with sadness today that I speak on her passing. I hope my colleagues and friends here join me in sending prayers and condolences to the family. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
