Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, we've heard many times before, the Northwest Territories is at a very important time in our history. Leadership of today have an opportunity to ensure that future generations will be looked after. Today, Mr. Speaker, I would like to speak to that leadership, and that includes us and the Assembly. We should be deeply concerned that money flows out of our territory to Ottawa. Last year alone, $270 million left the NWT in royalties and we didn't get a nickel.
