Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Today, I would like to recognize eight individuals who have made a strong and lasting impression on northern education, and were inducted into the Northwest Territories Education Hall of Fame today: Annie Felix from Tuktoyaktuk, Teresa Jaffray from Fort Simpson, Merril Dean from Yellowknife, Al McDonald from Yellowknife, Denise Bowen from Yellowknife, Chuck Lirette from Hay River, Shane Brewster from Inuvik, and Dave Roebuck from Yellowknife.
Mr. Speaker, I would also like to thank and recognize their families and their guests. Many have travelled to be here today for supporting these individuals and all the work that they do and their education, and for making a lasting impression on Northerners, our students now and the ones that are in the future, touching many hearts and many minds along the way. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
