Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Today I would like to rise and speak briefly on the decision to strike a Boundaries Commission and the debate that took place in this House yesterday. It was a very interesting debate, and it was a lesson relearned for me of the fluid nature of the politics of this Assembly. Mr. Speaker, the firm ground I thought I was standing on turned out to be a piece of melting ice that disappeared under me faster than food in the Members' lounge. I now have a better understanding of how the Captain of the Titanic felt after he clipped that iceberg. Very clearly, this is an important debate, and a significant decision has been made in this House, which I accept and support. I would encourage people of the western Northwest Territories to take full advantage of the opportunity to appear before the commission when it appears in your community to make your views known on the type of government, and concerns you may have in regard to government and suggestions for any improvements. I will also look forward to having this motion passed in the House tomorrow that will allow us to initiative the commission so that it may get on with the important duties it has before it in the coming months. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
