Thank you very much, Mr. Speaker. I want to ask the Minister of ENR some questions on our FireSmart awareness campaign as we move into the new year and as move into the next few years about establishing a recognition program. I just wanted to speak of that Smokey the Bear-type campaign that is needed here in the Northwest Territories. Of course, we all know that Smokey the Bear is an advertising mascot created to educate the U.S. public about the dangers of forest fires, and one of the biggest ones is: Remember, only you can prevent forest fires. This was created in 1947 and today Smokey the Bear’s message is recognized in the U.S. by 90 percent of adults and 77 percent of children. So I believe we need something similar.
I was looking at the FireSmart Program and the closest thing we have to it is called Tuktu the Caribou. I’d like to ask the Minister for an education program, what’s the strategy going forward? Thank you.
