I applaud the efforts of the northern sports Ministers and I encourage them to keep up the pressure on the International Committee. Northern governments fund the games. We must influence the International Committee to amend their decisions. The five dropped sports and midget hockey must be accommodated somewhere for the 2016 games. If not in Nuuk, then in the NWT or Yukon as has been offered. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
