Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I just wanted to touch on the NWTTA professional improvement fund and talk a bit about recognition for teachers in the Northwest Territories. I would like to commend the department for taking part in the Thank You for Making a Difference Campaign with the NWTTA. I think oftentimes teachers don't get the recognition that they deserve. My line of questioning is going to get to the point here that perhaps we need to do more to recognize the valuable asset that our teachers are to our communities and to our children. I know this is a really good undertaking by the NWTTA and the department. I would like to see something like a teacher of the year or something to that effect. Teachers need to be recognized even more than they are and this is a step in the right direction. I am not sure if the department has given that any thought or how that might roll out, but I would like to ask the Minister that question, Madam Chair. Thank you.
