(Translation not available). Mr. Speaker, just a quick translation. I am happy to be back with you and my colleagues in the House. We do have significant work ahead of us in this session and in future sessions until the end of our term, but I want to look back and express my condolences to people who have lost loved ones.
Some colleagues have mentioned Mr. Crook and other members of the Northwest Territories. I could mention a few, but I will keep mine to my constituency. On behalf of Tu Nedhe, I would like to express my condolences to the Mandeville family for the loss of Dotty Mandeville who passed away recently due to illness.
We all look for examples of how to live our lives. I think Dotty was a great example of how to live, if you are a young person looking for examples. Kole is another one of them.
Recently we lost an icon in the CBC Chipewyan programming. Ms. Evelyn Cook, who has been providing Chipewyan language programming for CBC North for as long as I can remember, passed away on Saturday, very sadly as well.
You and I, Mr. Speaker, attended a wedding of her son who married his wife at the foot of his mother's bed in the hospital room. It was a very sad moment and at the same time a very happy moment. I would like to congratulate Austin and Susan on their commitment to each other and their willingness to do it in such an environment. I am very proud of them and I would like to express my sincere thankfulness to him and Susie on behalf of all the people of Tu Nedhe.
I look forward to discussing the major issues facing us in the next couple of weeks. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
