Thank you very much, Mr. Speaker. I’d like to welcome the Dehcho First Nations along with Grand Chief Herb Norwegian. I wish them every success in their meetings this week. Also to the chiefs that my colleague did mention, but I’ll recognize the other delegation that we have travelling with the Dehcho First Nations this week: elder Gabe Hardisty; elder Sarah Chicot; councillors Ted Cayenne and James Cayenne; from Fort Providence, John McLeod; elder Jonas Lafferty from Fort Simpson; elder Leon Konisenta
from Nahanni Butte; elder Samuel Elleze from Providence; elder Yvonne Norwegian from Jean Marie River; and a special welcome to Chief Steven Jose, councillor Cheryl Cli and councillor Jonathan Tsetso of Liidlii Kue First Nations. Also travelling with them are various staff: Alison dePelham, Sarah McLeod, Greg Nuyli, Violet Jumbo, Mary Jane Cazon, Chris Reid, Patrick Scott and also the acting band manager of Wrigley, Ms. Ria Letcher. I would also welcome the former MLA of Nahendeh and Premier, Jim Antoine, to the gallery here today.
When I was coming over here yesterday, I was speaking with Jonas Lafferty and I said, when I welcome you here, your name is forever going to be in Hansard, even 100 years from now. So, that’s the same for everybody. Welcome.
