Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, my question is for the Minister of Municipal and Community Affairs. I would like to ask a question of the Minister regarding my Member's statement on the issue of the Arctic Winter Games, making sure our communities have the resources and the infrastructure in place to participate in recreational events, ensuring they have a good chance of making the Northwest Territories team.
Mr. Speaker, I made reference to some initiatives in my statement which this government can probably take regarding developing our infrastructure in our smaller communities and taking advantage of these facilities year-round.
I would like to ask the Minister if his department would consider looking at finding new ways and initiatives for investing in the smaller communities by improving our infrastructure so we can use these facilities year-round?
