Third Reading of Bills
Tony Whitford Commissioner Of The Northwest Territories
Monsieur le
prèsident, monsieur le premier ministre, messieurs et mesdames les députés, mesdames et messieurs, et amis, good friends.
Mr. Speaker and Members of the Legislative Assembly, this is a bit of an anniversary. It’s 21 years almost to the day that I made my first speech in the Legislative Assembly of the Northwest Territories as a Member for Yellowknife South.
---Applause
I was thinking about that today and beaming that I had a chance to represent this noble institution many years ago and subsequent years thereafter. It was a great honour to reflect back.
As most of you know, I enjoy visiting the people in our communities. I will use every opportunity to visit your constituents and your constituencies, and to accept as many invitations as possible that may be extended by the honourable Members of this House as they come forward.
When the ice roads in your regions are open later this year, I hope to make a few more road trips to visit as many schools in our remote communities as possible.
As the festive season of Christmas and New Year celebrations fast approaches, I would like to wish each and every one of you a very fond Merry Christmas and a healthy, happy New Year in 2010.
In the meantime, I wish each of the Members of this House safe travels and a busy, productive time as you continue to work for the people of the Northwest Territories.

Assent To Bills
Third Reading of Bills
The Speaker Paul Delorey
Please be seated. Colleagues, before we leave here today, I would like to take this opportunity to thank, on behalf of all the Members, the Pages who served us so well during the sitting of this Assembly.
---Applause
I would also like to extend the appreciation of the House to the schools, the chaperones, the parents and the staff that make this program so successful.
I would also like to thank the staff of the Office of the Clerk for the support they provide to all Members on an ongoing basis. It is especially appreciated...
---Applause
...during session when Members rely heavily on staff during a particularly busy time.
I know that we leave here with full schedules. Members will continue to meet in committees and Ministers will continue to lead their departments. We will also spend valuable time with our constituents helping us put our work here into perspective. These are the people who we all serve.
I would also like to urge Members to take the time to mark Remembrance Day, wherever you may be on November 11th . On Remembrance Day,
Canadians are asked to pause and remember the thousands of men and women who sacrificed their lives fighting for freedom and democracy during the First World War, the Second World War, the Korean War, the Afghan conflict and during peacekeeping missions.
As we will not meet again in this Chamber until January, I also take this opportunity to extend my very best wishes to you and your families for a safe and happy holiday season. I look forward to reconvening this House on January 27th and, as
always, I wish you safe travels as we disperse today.
Mr. Clerk, orders of the day.
