Mr. Speaker, we have a wonderful Territory full of amazing opportunities. Mr. Speaker, the Premier has alluded to going to other jurisdictions, and I’ve been in that same situation where they’re almost in awe, you know, that we get together and we make it sound like we hammer everything out until everybody agrees when, in fact, that’s not exactly the way it is. Maybe it sounds a little more rosy than it is.
From the government’s side, normally the government is a governing party and they have party discipline and they have party protection, they
have a party platform going into an election campaign, but, Mr. Speaker, from the governing side, even of this consensus government it’s been alluded here today in discussions about the Deh Cho Bridge, the government, it’s an untenable situation to have to be caught between sharing information with trying to accomplish a goal at the same time knowing full well that that information that you share could be used as a stick to beat you with. I mean, that’s basically what it boils down to. It creates an untenable situation for this side and that side. So, Mr. Speaker, I’d like to know what means does the Premier have at his disposal, or this government has at its disposal to begin this dialogue and debate. He talks about the Northern Leaders’ Forum, but in the general public what means do we have to begin a debate on the pros and cons of consensus government? Thank you.
