Question 26-19(2): Indigenous Languages Preservation  Thank you, Mr. Speaker.

Question 20-19(2): Northwest Territories Power Corporation Board  The NWT needs to trust this government, as my other colleague has said today.

Mobility Access  Thank you, Mr. Speaker, and thank you to the Minister for her answer. Can the Minister provide me or the Members with any information packages that we can keep in our offices for when clients do come to us? When we go to the websites, sometimes it is not as clear. If we have easy
