Merci, Monsieur le President. I want to thank the Minister for that and, of course, when he comes back, I'm going to be happy to help him with the ribbon cutting and getting the Archives Act drafted up and ready to go. So in my statement, though, I mentioned that very significant archival records on the history of the political development of the Northwest Territories are stored in a totally inadequate government warehouse. We're kind of lucky it didn't burn down this summer. So can the Minister tell us how long these records have been stored there and whether there are any plans for proper...

Okay. No, that's fine. Look, I understand the value of the area. It is important. It's used recreationally now. I want to see it developed. I just want to make sure that it can be done safely and that we're in doing this project, we're not going to expose people or workers to stuff that they shouldn't be exposed to. So that's why I'm asking these questions, and I'm just wondering whether the company has any residual responsibility because I think it's adjacent or a part of their original operations over a number of years. So that's why I'm asking these questions, and these are the kinds of...

Merci, Monsieur le President. My questions are for the Minister of Education, Culture and Employment. I mentioned in my statement that I've lost track of how many studies, reports, and proposals I've seen regarding the inadequate and sad state of the 46yearold territorial museum building. Can the Minister tell us what the current plans are for replacing, expanding, and/or renovating the space occupied by the NWT archives and museum? Mahsi, Mr. Speaker.

Okay, thanks. I guess I'm just a bit concerned that there might be potential contamination in the fill that was used for the dock, around the dock, and that we may have incurred some liability in accepting that property, which wouldn't be the first time, or at least the property back from the mining company. And I don't know, is there what, if any, responsibility does Miramar Con residual responsibility does it have with regard to remediation the dock if there's contamination there and so on. Thanks, Madam Chair.

Yeah, I guess belief is one thing, but I guess I'd want a definitive answer. My concern is that the property is still under active remediation as far as I understand. And I'm just wondering what responsibility, if any, does Miramar Con have for remediation of the dock. Thanks, Madam Chair.

Merci, Madam la Presidente. Committee wishes to consider Tabled Document 97319(2) Capital Estimates 20242025, Tabled Document 97419(2) Supplementary Estimates, Committee report 6119(2), Bills 81, 93, and 94. Mahsi, Madam Chair.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I have some questions about this, if I could. I think we I'm trying to remember if I actually saw this motion before. But can the Minister tell us a little bit more about what this is actually about, what kind of revenues we expect?

Yeah, thanks. Yeah, so the offsite storage, for anybody who's listening, is actually the government warehouse over on Byrne Road, has no climate control whatsoever. The records that are there, as I understand it actually, you know, they take in a significant part of the history of this government moving to Yellowknife, all of the work that's been done on devolution, negotiations of agreements, really important records. They're sitting over in a government warehouse without any temperature control. That's just not a good idea. I doubt that we're actually in basic legal compliance with the...

Thanks, Madam Chair. So I see there's two items here, the Hay River library sidewalk. I've been to the library. It's a nice one. I'm glad to hear they're going to fix the sidewalk; that's great. I guess the Minister probably knows that I love the archives. It's been I actually go over there and spend time. So what's the money here for the archives? What's that all about? Thanks, Madam Chair.

Thanks, Madam Chair. We need to do third reading on a bill. I think this is sorry, a good place to cut this off so that we can move. So that's why I'm going to move that the chair rise and report progress.
