Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to ask for Members to remember a long-term northerner in their prayers. I am speaking about Mike Kachkowski, a very long-term northerner who is seriously ill with cancer in the Stanton Hospital. Mike has been in the north for over 50 years and can be said to have been a true pioneer. He worked as a prospector, cat skinner and those types of things. He is probably best known for starting and running Mike's Trucking here in Yellowknife for many years with his wife, my aunt, Theresa Paul. They later sold this company, but it is still operating today in Yellowknife. As I said, Mike is seriously ill in the hospital and we ask that people remember him in their prayers. Thank you.
