---SHORT RECESS

Thank you, Mr. Nadli. Next I have Mr. Bouchard.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. I think, as Mr. Yakeleya said, we have an opportunity here today to do the right thing, and may I suggest that voting in favour of the motion for 19 Members is not the right thing.

We, as a government, came in here as the 17th Legislative Assembly. We talked about the value of our partnership as a central public government with Aboriginal governments. Here today we have a chance to show respect to the Tlicho Nation, to the folks from our neighbours, and they are our neighbours in the South Slave, in Tu Nedhe. And at what cost? What? Two extra seats here in the Legislature...

Thank you, Mr. Ramsay. To the motion. Mr. Beaulieu.
