Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, my questions today are to the Minister of Environment and Natural Resources with regard to the 2030 NWT Climate Change Strategic Framework. Mr. Speaker, as I spoke about earlier today, as I mentioned in my statement, the impacts of climate change, the severe impacts, are right here and upon us. We are feeling those every day.

I would just like to start by asking the Minister: the strategic framework will give rise, obviously, to an action plan, which we know is still in process, but can the Minister update the Members and update the residents of the territory on the process and what the next steps are to achieving the action plan? Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
