Question 1622-19(2): Location of Yellowknife-North Slave Campus of Aurora College  Thank you, Mr. Speaker. We see this time and again where, you know, stuff is being done behind the scenes or things are advancing before it really is taken out to the public for that engagement. I think a good example of that was the five options presented to us for the airport t

Question 1622-19(2): Location of Yellowknife-North Slave Campus of Aurora College  Thank you, Mr. Speaker. My questions are for the Minister of Education, Culture and Employment. Given that the funding is still required to come from Canada to complete the new North Slave Campus, has the department given any thought to re-engaging with the public on the propose

Recognition Of Visitors In The Gallery  Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I don't see my page in the Chamber at the moment, but I would like to recognize Rhiannon Ackerman-O'Connor who I have actually known since she was a little baby.

Committee Motion 503-19(2): Bill 65: Builders' Lien Act - New Clause 3.1, Carried  Thank you, Madam Chair. I don't reiterate everything that my colleague from Kam Lake said, and I don't think I actually could after this long day in the House and week as well so far. I did just want to say that I too am disappointed that we didn't get this bill further along and

Recognition Of Visitors In The Gallery(reversion)  Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I hope she's still here because I do really struggle sitting where I sit -- yeah, okay, excellent. I'd like to recognize my constituent Kate Reid. Kate is the president of the YWCA, and I'm super excited for the opening of the family centre. Welcome, Kate.

Member's Statement 1638-19(2): Violence against Indigenous women, girls and 2SLGBTQIA+ people  Thank you. Mr. Speaker, the abuses and violations committed and condoned by the Government of Canada against Indigenous people and, in particular, women, girls, and 2SLGBTQIPA+ people, is genocide.

Bill 93: Practice of Engineering, Geoscience and Applied Science Technology Act, Carried  Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, and my colleagues, indulge me for a few minutes here.

Committee Motion 491-19(2): Bill 74: Forest Act - Amend New Clause 128.1, Defeated  Thank you, Madam Chair. And first of all, I just want to say I appreciate there's a lot of nuances to this bill, and there's been a lot of things that are needed and a long time coming, but I am going to belabour a little bit of a point on the bottle depot as well with my colleag

Committee Motion 486-19(2): Bill 74: Forest Act - Amend Clause 14.1, Defeated  Thank you, Madam Chair. I just want to echo what my colleague from Yellowknife North said. I want to respect the process of the intergovernmental working group in this. I think this is the exact example of where we did run out of the time at the end. I know that the Minister was

Consideration In Committee Of The Whole Of Bills And Other Matters  Thank you, Madam Chair. I agree with the things that were brought forward by my colleague for Frame Lake. It was quite an interesting process back and forth with the department and the and the working group, the technical working group, the Indigenous governments and representati

Question 1604-19(2): Agricultual Growth  Thank you, Mr. Speaker. It's not often that Cabinet proves my point, so I do appreciate that there is a third department that is now involved in this. I think, again, it just speaks a little bit to what I was saying before, that there needs to be a sole direction, there needs to

Question 1604-19(2): Agricultual Growth  Thank you, Mr. Speaker. And I appreciate the Minister's response. But it did reiterate one of the concerns I raised in my statement, which is that this is an area where it does bounce between departments, or it's split over two, and like the immigration file we see that that does

Question 1604-19(2): Agricultual Growth  Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Well, for once, that's great news to hear in this House. I'm always glad to hear that we're getting more federal money than less.
