Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, I would like to speak about several Christmas events that will be happening at the Legislative Assembly in the coming days. Today at 4:30 p.m., the Annual Lights On at the Legislature ceremony will be held in the Great Hall. Kindergarten children are expected to attend and watch as the lights are turned on and Santa will visit. Kindergarten children from schools in Yellowknife and N'dilo have decorated one tree each in the Great Hall and the large tree was decorated with ornaments made by students from schools throughout the Northwest Territories. May I add that this is the first year that there is a tree from the students from N'dilo as their school just opened this year.

Sunday, December 6th, will be the annual night of Christmas music at the Legislature. Local performers will sing Christmas carols, followed by a singalong and Christmas goodies. People must have tickets for the event due to the limited seating capacity. Tickets can be picked up at the front reception desk on the first floor in exchange for a donation of food. This food will then be donated to the Yellowknife Women's Centre. On Friday, December 11th, the Yellowknife MLAs will be hosting a Seniors' Tea here at the Great Hall. It starts at 2:30 p.m. and it includes seniors from Detah, N'dilo, as well as all the Yellowknife seniors. People who wish to get a ride can call the Baker's Centre. Thank you.
