Thank you very much, Mr. Chair. So -- excuse me for one quick second here as I find the pages on the business plan I'd like to refer to quickly.

In the business plan on page 15, the department speaks to supporting pathways to employment for NWT youth through SNAP and specifically talks about measures of number of high school students participating in SNAP program as students.

I don't have any particular issue with that but what I would like the Minister to speak to is if her department has thought about other pathways to career education within the JK to 8 segment. I heard a lot from folks on the campaign trail that that's what they would like to see, specifically the construction industry, so I wonder what the Minister is contemplating on that front. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

See context to find out what was said next.
