Thanks, Madam Chair. Well, I'm sure they are registered on the federal lobbyists registry, but I don't want to continue this. We're still paying $120,000 to some folks in Ottawa.
I want to ask the Minister, in the last government, the Regular MLAs, we never got to meet ever with federal Ministers when they came here for visits. I don't think there have been a lot of visits so far, but there were NWT days in the past where a whole bunch of MLAs went to Ottawa and did lobbying. Would this Minister look at the idea or the issue of Regular MLAs actually getting to meet with federal Ministers when they come here? We're not a party system, but sometimes it's important that we have an opportunity or that they have an opportunity to hear what other elected officials say beyond just the Ministers themselves. It's something I want to plant that seed with the Premier and get her to think about that. Thanks, Madam Chair.
