Mr. Speaker and Members of the Legislative Assembly, good afternoon.
I’d like to take a moment to encourage all residents to honour the service and sacrifice made by members of the Canadian Armed Forces as we approach Remembrance Day next Tuesday.
As I look ahead to the coming holiday season and the celebration of Christmas, I would like to wish each and every one of you a joyous and safe holiday season filled with hope, good health, inspiration and time with your families and friends as we enter into the coming New Year of 2015.
One of my favorite quotes and I think it is very fitting for the coming holidays: “Life will take you many places, but it’s love that brings you home.” I would like to wish each of the Members of this House safe travels and a busy, productive time as you continue your work in the spirit of collaboration and cooperation for the people of the Northwest Territories.
