Thank you, Madam Chair. Madam Chair, I know the Minister has heard a lot about what our smaller communities are needing for income support, and I'm listening to them too. So in her reply to the Member from Mackenzie Delta, she was talking about market basket measures. And it's a tricky equation to solve for, but I'm thinking if we want to get more people off of income support, we want to have more opportunities for them to get into jobs. And so that ties into my thinking around ECE's annual survey that just went out around the minimum wage.

So the minimum wage in the NWT -- and this is in your business plan, so I hope it's comfortable for the Minister to speak to. The minimum wage right now is $16.70 per hour and, obviously, you'll be assessing what you hear from employers, employees, and etcetera. But can the Minister maybe speak to how she sees balancing maybe increases to the minimum wage as supporting more people getting off of income support. Thank you, Madam Chair.
