Thank you, Mr. Hawkins. Mr. Angus Wilson was our public affairs summer student last year and he’s here in the Legislative Assembly. Thank you for last year, Angus, and welcome back to the Legislative Assembly.

Also, again, I’d like to welcome Consul General of Germany Mr. Hermann Sitz and his wife Ninna again in the public gallery today.

Colleagues, we’ll be taking a short recess and I invite everyone to join the Premier and myself for the planting of our Amber Jubilee Ninebark shrubs, in honour of the Diamond Jubilee of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II. These shrubs were a gift from the province of Manitoba to all Canadian jurisdictions. They were newly created and named in honour of the 2012 Diamond Jubilee celebrations.

I invite all Members and guests to please join us outside for the planting of the shrubs. Thank you.
