Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, I listened quite intently to the sessional statement the Premier gave a couple of days ago. There was something that wasn't in that. I just wanted to question the Premier today about a glaring omission from that sessional statement, and that was the fact that it didn't mention tourism.

My question isn't related to the sessional statement itself, but I have a question for the Premier. I believe that is an affront to the tourism industry in the Northwest Territories. For a government that purports to support tourism, leaving that out was definitely a mistake. I wanted to know what value Mr. Handley's government puts on tourism. Where

does it fit in the grand scheme of things with this government? Thank you.
