Thank you, Madam Chairperson. What we are hearing around the table, I believe it is more critical than ever that we do have a clause in there that gives comfort to all regions and most of the communities in the western territory. I think that is what this motion does is to ensure that there is comfort that people can live with the decision of the 19 seat legislature and that with Yellowknife having seven seats, there is going to be an accountable Cabinet which will be made up of Members from all the new Western Territory. I believe that this gives us that comfort and is a mechanism that people can live with and are able to live with Bill 15, knowing that they will have representation either from the regional centres in regards to the north, the south, and also in regards to Yellowknife. I think it is more important now than ever that we try to find some workable solutions to carry us through the 14th Assembly until we complete the constitutional process and find a mechanism that we can all eventually vote on and live with. I encourage that the Members, the House, and also Members of Cabinet that also gives comfort to people here in regards to the riding I represent, there are three members in the Sahtu, the Beaufort and Delta Region, we have three Members on Cabinet, but in this case we are going to have two. We have to give and take on this motion, but I believe it is fair as we can be and also it gives the comfort that the residents of the Northwest Territories can live with.
I think there has been a precedent set in the past where there have been motions passed and changes in regard to different acts to ensure that these things are carried out. In regard to the question about conventions, conventions can be changed. Legislation is a little different. It is not as easy. I know that we have heard from a lot of communities and a lot of different presenters but I think this is something that they feel they can live with. A lot of people do not agree with Bill 15 as it sits, but we had to try and find a compromise or workable solution to the ideas that we heard of how we can put something forth that we can all live with and I believe that it is critical that ourselves as Members of this House but also politicians for the people we represent, that we have to realize what this House is going to look like after the 14th Assembly. So with that, Madam Chairperson, I ask for a recorded vote.
