Thank you, Mr. Chair. I will turn that over to Mr. Mercer. Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. I will take that as a comment from the Member. Thank you.

Yes, Mr. Chair.

Thank you, Madam Speaker. I too will support this motion. You know, it's always hard to talk about this because it affects, you know, not only the people in our communities and the territories but also family members as well. So, you know, anything we can do and this government can do, I think it's important. And I would hope that, you know, and I've said this before, is that, you know, we got to go back to remembering why we're here, and that's for the people of the Northwest Territories.
