Thank you, Mr. Speaker. As my colleagues have noted, it's tough for us to see everybody who's in the gallery, so I'll probably miss some, but I'm going to try and recognize some of my constituents. You've recognized a couple of them already. I see up there Barb Saunders, who is executive director for the NWT Status of Women; Lyda Fuller, who is executive director for the YWCA. You did recognize, he's a former constituent, he's no longer a constituent, but Justice Ted Richard is also a former Member of this House. He was the Member for Yellowknife South. I thought we should mention that and recognize that.

Along with Supreme Court Justice John Vertes is Mrs. Louise Vertes, who is no stranger to the government. I'd also like to recognize Mrs. Barb Wyness of the UNW and Mr. Blake Lyons from the NWT Association of Communities and, finally, my new executive secretary, Kathy Wind.
