Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, it has been two years, and we have passed the halfway mark as our term of MLAs. During the last two years, we've faced many challenges, many issues from our constituents have been raised in this House. Many of the challenges and issues remain with us today, as I read through my Member's statements from the start of this Assembly, from housing to many of our social programs, from jobs to sustainable economy, from the health of our residents, our territory, Mr. Speaker, we continue to face outstanding challenges as well as new ones.

We've been dealing with the COVID-19 pandemic six months into our term, and then this past summer, major floods.

Mr. Speaker, I, like my colleagues here today, am up for the challenge and I look forward to continuing to try to find solutions for those challenges.

On that note, Mr. Speaker, housing has continued to be a challenge and is an issue for not only my community but other communities across the north, and we have talked in many of our meetings of this being one of our top priorities as it affects everyone throughout the Northwest Territories. Without housing, we can't even begin to tackle many of the issues our territory is facing. Thank you, Mr. Speaker. And I'll have questions for the Minister of Housing, how the department is dealing with this critical issue.

MR. SPEAKER: Thank you, Member for Inuvik Twin Lakes. Members' statements. Member for Nunakput.
