If I can get the Minister or someone from the department here to clarify exactly what that meant.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I would first like to thank Mr. Bromley for bringing it forward. There’s no doubt his passion to energy and renewable resources is very evident in the House. We’ve heard him speak many times. And to the seconder of the motion Mr. Blake.

When one looks at this motion, one sees a very broad-brush approach to energy initiatives and looking at solutions thereof. It’s very difficult sometimes to provide something for everyone when you look at a motion of that magnitude, so I would like to break that motion up into some components before I make my decision here known.

Really...

Yes, I did, Madam Chair. We’re not on page 13-38, unfortunately, but I don’t see an increase in that line entry. I assume we’ll want to talk about that when we get to that line as to how do we go from $300,000 to actually a decrease, if that’s indeed the changeover. Again, Madam Chair, we’re not at 13-38, so I will ask my question then. Thank you.

Again, I’m encouraged by the enthusiasm of the Minister but this does require more than just the need or desire. This requires strategic framework. It requires a plan of action to keep this wave alive. I didn’t hear that in the Minister’s delivery here today. Would the Minister commit to put some type of strategy or framework strategy around our film and production industry so that we can keep this wave as long as we can in the North and be proud of the film industry that is created today?

I’m still a bit confused. Is this not, as I said, a federal initiative that we’re getting to help offset? If it is indeed a revenue, was treated a revenue in 2011-2012-2013, I’m getting the sense that this is somewhere else. If this is somewhere else, can the Minister indicate where is the recovery then? Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. My questions today will be for the Minister of ITI. Minister Ramsay spoke to us the other day in the House, tabling a statement regarding a new website that they’re designing for the newly formed media association to hopefully entice the film industry. As good as it is, it’s a great tool. I’m not going to deny that. I’ve had the pleasure of talking to some of the fine folks at Buffalo Air who really have minted a unique niche market in the film industry and I think we’re all duly proud of what they’ve done for the Northwest Territories, not just on a national but a...

Thank you, Madam Chair. On 13-9 there is a recovery of the Mutual Aid Resource Sharing Agreement. There seems to be a zero entry for 2012-2013. If I can get a comment or action as to why as such. Thank you.

Thank you. Yes, I agree, CRTC is obviously one of the national bodies that look after this. However, consumers today don’t have a vehicle and if we have to wait for rulings from large organizations such as CRTC, consumers could be waiting for a long period of time.

Given the fact that this is nothing new, there are many provinces that have already jumped on board, obviously there’s legislation that has been created, there are steps, procedures in place to help protect the public. Again, my question to the Minister: Is this something feasible that the department would consider doing in the very...

I thank the Minister for saying that. Even if it’s charged back, I can’t speak on behalf of the airlines, but if the airlines are out there listening, you may want to research this a little bit more as well.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. It gives me a great pleasure and honour to welcome a number of my family members who are here this weekend to celebrate my son’s Grade 12 graduation. We have the matriarch of the Dolynny clan, my mother, Mrs. Vivian Dolynny; my younger brother, Mr. Stacy Dolynny from Sherwood Park, Alberta; the cute one next to him is my little niece Alexia; her big brother, Logan Dolynny; behind my mother is my sister-in-law who is here from Grande Prairie, Alberta, Darcy Zackowski; sitting next to her is my father-in-law, Mr. Grant Zackowski; the cute one at the top is Mr. Matthew...
