Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Today, my Member's statement is on the projects of Stanton Hospital and Norman Wells Health Centre. The Government of the Northwest Territories has a procurement process for capital projects, and these two particular projects are well under way, with a union participating on one job site. Training, employment, business opportunities, and supply are fundamental principles and elements of the procurement process. Maximizing and capitalization can be measured in a number of ways. As mentioned by the honourable Minister of Education, Culture and Employment earlier, there have been approximately 4,700 apprentices certified, and today there are more than 400 men and women employed in 27 occupations. Later, I will have questions on that workforce and how many are going to be produced with the journeyman certification in my question and answer period. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
