Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I rise today on a Member's statement on a happy occasion for a couple from Fort Resolution, Tendah King and Rocky Lafferty. On April 12, 1999, at 1 p.m., they had triplets born to them from Fort Resolution. That is the first set of triplets in the 210-year existence of Fort Resolution, the oldest community in the Northwest Territories. They were three girls, Tanis, Tori and Tamara and they have all made it back to Fort Resolution safe and sound.
The community was happy for them to return home. Once again Fort Resolution showed to the rest of the Northwest Territories that they could pull together and help each other. They formed a big baby shower in the community hall, I understand this weekend, to help the couple out. As well, they are accepting donations of clothing and other things to help this young couple out. I just wish them the best of luck and a good sawing season for Rocky at the sawmill this summer. He needs the money to support these kids. Thank you.
