Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I think, Mr. Speaker, I'd like to start by saying that the royal family has a really special relationship with Indigenous people in the NWT. And if we talk about reconciliation and United Nations declaration, then we have to respect that relationship as well. A part of reconciliation is being able to have the royal family come and listen to the Indigenous governments and to the people and to hear their concerns as well.

So, you know, I have to say that the Royal Highness did come and he did meet with the Council of Leaders, and there was not one that said that they didn't want him there. In fact, they were all eager to speak to him and share their problems and share what they thought reconciliation was and some of the experiences that they had.

I also believe, Mr. Speaker, that it's really important that we as a Legislative Assembly show respect when the royal family comes and continue to be welcoming when their visits are requested.

On the other hand, besides the relationship with Indigenous governments, it helps promote tourism. It got international news. We had people here -- flying here and more people hopefully will come because of that.

And it's another one that's really key to myself is climate change. Mr. Speaker, we're in a place in this world now that climate change is real. We're being affected more than any other jurisdiction in Canada. We're trying to get that out there. We're also -- the issues that are facing the globe, such as Russia and Ukraine right now and the opening of our seas and stuff, we can't just sit back anymore, Mr. Speaker, and not get international news. So I have spent the last few months every since the invasion of Ukraine trying to get national coverage as much as possible, trying to get international coverage. So I see this is as one more step in bringing awareness to -- global awareness to the issues of the NWT and the issues that the Arctic is facing. So thank you, Mr. Speaker.
