Thank you very much, Mr. Speaker. I would like to recognize a couple of distinguished guests we have with us today: the president of the NWT Association of Communities and the executive director, Mr. Gord Van Tighem and Ms. Yvette Gonzalez. I would also like to recognize the president of the NWT Teachers' Association and executive director, Ms. Amanda Mallon and Dave Roebuck. I hope I remembered rightly. Thank you.
