Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I appreciate my long-winded intro to that, but it was important to get that information out on the record for discussion here.
Mr. Speaker, would the Premier of our Northwest Territories be willing to engage into direct communications with the Prime Minister of Canada to reaffirm whether we are participating or not participating in the missile defence, as stated in the Prime Minister's letter to consult with the Northwest Territories? Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
