Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Some analysts have taken a look at these, the most recent statistics, and seen that improving women’s participation in the labour force might actually offset some declines. This could be an economic drive for getting more women into the work force. Will the Minister commit to applying that kind of gender-based analysis to things like Skills 4 Success and other government initiatives in her role of Minister for the Status of Women so we can start to see those benefits roll out in across the government approach to empowering women in the Northwest Territories across government portfolios? Thank you.
