Thank you, Mr. Chair. Mr. Chair, as we pass the mid point for the 19th Legislative Assembly, it's important to take stock of where we are as a government and the progress we're making in fulfilling the commitments we made to advance the 22 shared priorities that we, as the 19th Legislative Assembly, developed at the beginning of this Assembly.

I'm proud of the collaboration that we as an Assembly demonstrated in creating these 22 shared priorities, and I'm grateful for the insight and feedback that Regular Members provided Cabinet on the items and specific actions found in the mandate.

Collaboration is not always easy. It requires a give and take, honest and open communication, and respect for the other side's opinion, even if we don't always agree. It also takes time. But we know that in consensus government, collaboration is crucial, and I believe that these 22 priorities and the action items we're going to speak about today are better as a result of it.

Just over two years ago, we as Cabinet, took these priorities and got to work. And despite the obvious challenges we faced since March 2020, I'm proud of what we accomplished to date.

As we begin this mid term review, I'm happy to report that we're well on track to achieve the majority of our commitments.

Of the 149 actions that we as a government identified in the mandate, 23.5 percent have been fulfilled; 65 percent are in progress; 9 percent are in planning; and 2 percent have been delayed; and one commitment has been discontinued.

Achieving these commitments helps advance the priorities of this Assembly and supports our economic and social recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic. This progress is also a testament to the hard work and dedication of public service servants in a very dynamic and challenging environment and the shared commitment of all Members of this Assembly to work together to advance the priorities we identified in 2019.

Over the next two years, I look forward to continued partnership with the Regular Members in order to fulfill the commitments we made at the beginning of this Assembly. We, as Cabinet, welcome the opportunity to answer any questions and comment you may have to offer as we begin the mid term review. Thank you, Mr. Chair.
