Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I would like to recognize a couple of people in the Gallery also. I’d like to first recognize Don Bubar, president of Avalon Rare Metals. I’m hoping that someday there might be a rare metals mine in Tu Nedhe. That’ll be good for the workers of Tu Nedhe, both Fort Resolution and Lutselk’e.

Also, I would like to recognize Tom Hoefer, executive director of the NWT Chamber. Tom and I actually worked together in the ‘70s. That is hard to believe, but true.
