Thanks, Madam Chair. I appreciate that. I don't want to go off on a long tirade here, but if we want to convince the federal government that we can actually do a good job managing our resources, we have to do a lot better. We've had devolution in place for five years. There were some legislative changes made in the last Assembly, and we improved a lot of that legislation as it went through the Regular MLAs, but there is a number of things that have happened: Cantung went into receivership; we were on the hook; we were able to offload that back to the federal government; Cameron Hills; the Tlicho All-Season Road, the review board gave a scathing indictment of our participation as a government in that proceeding. We had a manager in charge of that project write to a Minister while it was in a consult to modify a process; totally inappropriate.

The only work that we have achieved in the last Assembly on financial security was rolling back mandatory requirement for financial security. We're going to have a very tough time demonstrating that we can responsibly manage resources in this jurisdiction with that kind of stuff happening. We've got to fix this. That's what I have been harping on for the last four years, and I am going to keep doing it in this Assembly. We've got to fix that, if we want to convince others, the federal government, the Indigenous governments, that we can actually responsibly manage resource development.

I see that my time is up, Madam Chair. That's my rant for the day, but it'll keep happening day after day until we fix this system. Thanks, Madam Chair.
