Just very quickly, Madam Chair. I’ve been a part of two of these now and both of them have sparked a lot of good debate. We asked this commission, which is supposed to be an independent commission, to go out and listen to what the people have to say and then come back with some of their recommendations. I mean, we’ve seen a motion today to completely dismiss those recommendations and we’ve had a few other motions.
I believe that if we, eight years from now, the Legislative Assembly of the day will ask the commission to go out and do some consultations across the Northwest Territories. They’ll have an opportunity to come back. The Members of the day will have an opportunity to provide some input before their final recommendations, and I believe those recommendations should be binding. I think we’ve heard somebody say that six jurisdictions have this, and we’ve heard today that the commission, I believe, takes everything into consideration. I think we see that now with the 19 Members that we do have and with the discrepancy in the numbers from 760 to 2,800. I think they do take everything into consideration.
I would like to see the future commission reports binding, and I appreciate the opportunity to have spoken a few words on this.
