Thank you, Mr. Speaker. In my Member’s statement today I talked about this one small line in this recruitment ad that has caused such a stir in Hay River. I really can’t overstate that, Mr. Speaker. I know it may not seem like a big thing, because one extra executive or CEO in Yellowknife may not be a big thing, but in Hay River, in a small community, this is a large thing. As our government, we say that we’re committed to vibrant, sustainable communities, and there’s good air service between Hay River and Yellowknife, there are certainly good communication systems in place and, like I said,

this one small line here. It said that as a result, the selected individual may reside in either Yellowknife or Hay River.

I would like to ask the Premier today if he could tell us why, and tell the people of Hay River, I guess, why it was necessary to offer the alternative of living in Hay River or Yellowknife to this person. I’m wondering perhaps if they thought they couldn’t recruit somebody if it was to live in Hay River, because I think we could certainly prove that not to be the case, but I’d like to know what the rationale was for that option. Thank you.
