Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I rise today to draw attention to an annual campaign carried out by the Canadian Cancer Society, which is called Daffodil Days. It is going to take place this year between April 2nd to the 5th. Essentially, you can order a bunch of daffodils, I think it is $5 a bunch, send them to loved ones and it is a great way to raise money for the Canadian Cancer Society. We do have a local Alberta-NWT division.
Mr. Speaker, I am drawing attention to this today because I understand they are having some difficulty in fundraising this year. Past years have been very good, but there was some confusion around some of the advertising. I wanted to clear that up and let people know they can phone locally, 920-4428, for information or order forms. They do have a local office on the 3rd floor of the Graham Bromley Building. I will also have this information in my office, so if any constituents or Members are interested in getting this information, they can contact me.
Mr. Speaker, I think that all of us have had loved ones in our families who have been touched by cancer at one point or another. I think it is a very good initiative and a great way to raise funds for cancer research. I hope my colleagues and members of the Northwest Territories will take up the cause here and raise money for Daffodil Days. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
