Thank you, Mr. Speaker. It was almost three and one half years ago when Mr. Premier was running for the Premier's position and most of us were in the House when he was making his speech to become a Premier. I can remember the exact words he was saying to the people of the Northwest Territories. He was saying, "I do not expect respect from you unless I respect you." I think the people of the Northwest Territories had respect for him and Members of this Legislative Assembly had respect for him and that respect will continue until the person is proven guilty. For that reason, Mr. Speaker, I will not be supporting the motion. Thank you.
