Thank you, Madam Chair. There are national programs that recognize outstanding principals and outstanding teachers in Canada and we've had winners from the Northwest Territories, both of the last two years, who have been recognized in those programs. We certainly take the opportunity to celebrate those wins when they happen.

We have worked with the NWTTA in terms of recognition programs. I meet on an annual or biannual basis with the president of the NWTTA. I would be happy to discuss with her if we need to strengthen our teacher recognition programs and report back to the Members.
