Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I'll make a few comments on the anti-bullying day, the Pink Shirt Day. I’ll share some thoughts with you on anti-bullying. Having survived the residential school system and growing up in Inuvik here, you only could imagine the bullying that went on going to school in a multicultural environment institution at that time, and the society levels at that time, on progression in all areas. The anti-bullying, for me, has progressed, and I can assure you, viewing our youth out in the Great Hall, and I also commend the Minister on his statements of assurances provided to the youth. I only could imagine in standing there viewing at that age at that time back in the residential school environment. I can guarantee you, we have come a long way as the society of the Northwest Territories. I end that now, and I have another statement later to get to my Member’s statement on the issue I want to bring forward. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
