Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Mr. Chairman, I have proposed this motion because in the community of Inuvik, there is a long history of east and west that is not a healthy one when you look back at the community when it originally started out. As people of Inuvik realized that Bill 15 which establishes 19 seats was going to get approval, a lot of the constituents of mine came forward and said we must at least do something. If we can not change it any other way then we must at least do the minimum of changing the names. That is why I have proposed this to try at least, in the names, remove ourselves from some of our history of Inuvik east and west originally meant. Hopefully, this will at least cover some of those bases. Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
