Thank you, Mr. Clerk. Prior to adjourning this session that seems to have gone on forever, as noted by Mr. Ningark, it began on November 27, 1996, I would like to express my appreciation to the Members, to the Member for Natilikmiot, the Deputy Speaker Mr. Ningark, for sitting in for me during my recent illness. I would like to express our appreciation to Mr. Jay Bran who had the honour of being the first status person to carry the mace in this Assembly and maybe in Canada.

While we are on the subject of the mace, I would also like to thank the four elders who came in from Cape Dorset and also the two women from Fort Providence. As always, on your behalf, our thanks goes to the Clerk and his staff who continue to do their best to assist us.

The interpreters and the translators continue to provide exceptional services, for which we thank them.

The catering staff who have been good. Our sound and television technicians and last, but by no means least, the Pages from Iqaluit and Scouts from Yellowknife.

As you head back home to the joys of the summer season, I hope your travels will be safe. I would like to join my colleague, the Minister of Transportation, in promoting safe practices on the water. Enjoy the weather in each of your constituencies, relax and remember to have an accident-free boating season this year. See you in October.
