Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, as we are all very well aware and thankfully aware, the budget will be a done deal after today. I just want to state again that the issue now is division. Division, Mr. Speaker, and all issues related to division. As a western MLA, my focus is now going to be almost exclusively on making sure that the west is ready for division, that we are up and running and there is a smooth and seamless transition. We do have some joint housekeeping sessions left as a joint Assembly where we have to put through legislation and take care of that outstanding business to take us up to division. Very clearly Mr. Speaker, we have to focus on, as we run up to division, the issues related to the economy and social programs giving a clear mandate and recognition that
east and west will be deciding their own fate from here on in. The focus has to be division for the next year and only division as the main driving force for us. The countdown has begun in my opinion. We have lots to do and a long road yet to travel. Thank you.
