Statements in Debates

Debates of , 18th Assembly, 2nd Session (day 61)

Thank you, Mr. Chair. I appreciate the Minister's commitment to share that information. It seems to me that it's one of the most tangible ways for us to measure the effects of climate change, and especially in making some very significant decisions to relocate some or all of the different communities and their buildings in order to stay out of the way of the ravages of erosion. I have some questions on electronic waste. Is this the right section to ask those? Thank you.

Debates of , 18th Assembly, 2nd Session (day 60)

Mahsi, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, my questions today are for the Minister of Health and Social Services. Yesterday, the Minister released a set of recommendations aimed at a critical incident that took place last year in which the family alleged there had been a cultural bias toward the treatment. So my first question is: to what extent are the recommendations unique to Aklavik and to what extent will the rest of them be applied to the NWT? Thank you.

Mahsi, Mr. Speaker. Mahsi, colleagues. Mr. Speaker, congratulations to the board that operates Northern United Place, and best wishes for many more years of serving the community. Yellowknife would not be the same without you. Mahsi.

Debates of , 18th Assembly, 2nd Session (day 60)

Thank you, Mr. Chair. I have a question for the Minister that relates to this section in her opening remarks. Apparently, there are some LPs coming on the Civil Emergency Measures Act, the Western Canada Lottery, and the Fire Prevention Act and then later on the Cities, Towns and Villages Act. Could the Minister give us some timing around when these pieces of legislation will be introduced? Thank you.

Debates of , 18th Assembly, 2nd Session (day 60)

Thank you, Mr. Chair. Mr. Chair, on page 254, under the program category, I see that the Nunavut exchange of services is declining from $2.5 million to $1.1 million, and I am wondering if the Minister can give us a reason for that change? Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. So, what I understand is that this is all one office, but there are two streams of funding. Is that correct?

Thank you, Mr. Chair. Mr. Chair, I didn't understand that answer. Could the Minister please elaborate?
