Thank you. That clarified. And also the other Member had asked the questions that I was looking for earlier. Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, last week there was some social media brought up, the case of tuberculosis in Tuktoyaktuk, which caused a big scare in the community, and there has been a few concerned residents which they have contacted myself to just basically more get an education of what happens next when someone who think they may have been in contact with someone that has tuberculosis. Mr. Speaker, my final question is: what should someone do if they think they have been in contact with someone with TB? Quyanainni, Mr. Speaker.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, earlier, I talked about TB, and my questions are for the Minister of Health and Social Services. Mr. Speaker, my first question is: currently, how many known cases of TB are there in the Northwest Territories? Thank you, Mr. Speaker.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, today I am going to talk about tuberculosis or TB. Mr. Speaker, earlier this month, residents of Tuktoyaktuk were tested for tuberculosis or TB after finding out a recent visitor had an active case of this disease. TB is a bacterial infection that typically affects the lungs. It is also a shameful part of Canada's colonial history. From 1950 to 1969, it is estimated one third of Inuit in Canada contracted TB, a disease brought north by settlers. During those years, thousands of people were taken south for medical treatment and many were never able to return...

Thank you, Mr. Chair. Mr. Chair, my question is I see that the second to last point, schools for $128,914,000. I would just like a breakdown of that. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Mr. Speaker, my second question is: what active steps is the Department of Health and Social Services taking in 201617 to prevent tuberculosis and reduce new infections in the NWT?

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, I just want to welcome everyone from Dechinta here, as well as Mr. Jordan Peterson. He's running in an upcoming election for the Gwich'in Tribal Council and it's good to see young guys like yourself getting into politics and doing the better good for your people. Welcome. Quyanainni, Mr. Speaker.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, earlier I spoke about Inuvialuit Day. Today, my questions are for the Minister of Aboriginal Affairs and Intergovernmental Relations. Mr. Speaker, as I mentioned in my statement, the Inuvialuit are negotiating a selfgovernment agreement with the GNWT in Canada. My question is: when was the agreement-in-principle signed? Thank you, Mr. Speaker.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, my final question is: how do the agreement-in-principle and current negotiations uphold the United Nations Declaration of Rights of Indigenous Peoples? Quyanainni, Mr. Speaker.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, my second question is: what is included in the agreement-in-principle?
