Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, the success of students is an important issue. We need to especially address the smaller communities. We have been attempting to do that over the last several years, Mr. Speaker.

First of all, teacher turnover has been an issue. Mr. Speaker, we have introduced a Teacher Induction Program, so we have some stability and look at providing more stability of teachers in the communities. The Teacher Induction Program is being welcomed and other jurisdictions are looking at our particular program.

As well, we are looking at the possibility of increasing and continuing to promote northern teachers to be trained, so we have teachers from the North in the communities, Mr. Speaker, who have a cultural appreciation and identity. Thank you.
