Thank you, Mr. Speaker. So my questions are for the Minister of education.
We now have over a decade of research showing the harms on children and youth from having a smartphone with them at all times, from an alarming rise in mental illnesses, anxiety and sleep deprivation, to struggles making meaningful friendships and disconnect from family members, to struggles paying attention and learning in school. So first, what is the education Minister doing to speed along the development in all NWT schools of phone-free school policies? Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
