Good afternoon, colleagues. Welcome back to the Chamber.
Colleagues, I would like to take this opportunity to recognize and commend one of our own at the Legislative Assembly.
Security supervisor Ray Jahner was honoured recently by the Yellowknife Association for Community Living for his commitment and support for persons with disabilities in the workplace.
---Applause
Mr. Jahner’s helpful and friendly attitude was noted and much appreciated by the members of the Skills Training and Community Inclusion Program, whose work brings them regularly to the Assembly.
Mr Jahner is taking a two-month leave of absence effective tomorrow, to help care for his grandson. We hope you enjoy that time, Ray, and look forward to your return in December.
On behalf of all Members, please accept our congratulations.
---Applause
Orders of the day. Item 2, Ministers’ statements. The honourable Minister of Justice, Mr. Lafferty.
