Mr. Speaker… [Translation] Today we have a few people here. I want to say in my language, thank you for being here. We have to work with them for several years. Some of them are chiefs; some of them are still young and there are new people, young people are with them. So, I want to say thank you for being here with us. They’re here for a meeting. So, thank you for being here. [Translation ends]

…the leaders, led by Grand Chief Herb Norwegian, plus all the leaders and the elders who are here as well. My colleague, MLA for Nahendeh, is going to share the responsibility of trying to recognize all of our delegates from the Dehcho First Nations. The delegates are meeting here for a couple days, so they’re meeting at the Ski Club and their hope is to have their meeting in town and also, at the same time, meet with the Premier as well.

I’d just like to recognize the delegation: Grand Chief Herb Norwegian, Chief Ted Lennie, Chief Lloyd Chicot, Fort Providence Metis president James Christie, Fort Simpson Metis president Marie Lafferty, Chief Michael Matou, Chief Joachim Bonnetrouge, and also Chief Gladys Norwegian. Mahsi, Mr. Speaker. My colleague Mr. Menicoche will also recognize a few people. Mahsi.
