Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, in my Member’s statement I talked about corrections. I have questions for the Minister of Justice. I'd like to ask the Minister if there are any programs in corrections with a goal of preventing inmates from returning to corrections. Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I’ll be very brief. One of the things that small communities are seeing more and more often is that their elders, once they get to a certain age, are passing away from home, and in their last days they would like to have a service in the community. I think some of the communities such as Deline and in Fort Resolution have even you know marked a place location where they thought that this service could be provided, so for that reason I would support the motion. Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Mr. Chairman, just a few words on this. We are looking for an action plan for the enhanced homecare services to support the communities, largely in support of the aging in place, that we think would be a program or a project of the government that would have tremendous returns, would defer a lot of costs. We want ensure that there is an action plan on the homecare services. Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Mr. Chairman, I just wanted to say a couple of things on this motion. This is an important part of the future of our territory and our government. This type of spending is spending that has tremendous returns. We need to be able to be prepared to have people in the workforce. We need daycare that's affordable for people to go to work and turn our economy around. We know that spending in early childhood has tremendous returns and this is asking the government to develop an action plan within the next two years. We're looking down the road for a couple of years when it...

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Mr. Chairman, the committee would like to go to the motions that we have section by section.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I realize the Minister is just starting on working with the employment rates, but I would like to just get a feel for the communities, what is coming, so I would like to ask the Minister what the next steps would be, in gauging people as it relates to the employment rates in small communities. Thank you.

Just to be clear, I am talking about employment rates, not unemployment rates. Is there any sort of plan to increase employment rates in communities in Northwest Territories?

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. The Prime Minister indicated that they would be moving to a faster approval process for Building Canada Fund, as the Premier just mentioned. When will this faster process occur? Because what I am seeing is even from what has been approved by the last government, the bundles that I questioned the transportation minister on before, seems to be slowed down from what the original intent of those bundles were. Does the Premier have any indication of when the faster approval process will occur? Thank you.

Also, in that letter, the Prime Minister wrote about Nutrition North Canada and about increasing that program by $40 million. I would like to ask the Premier if we have any indication of which communities in the NWT would be positively impacted by that program. Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I too would like to recognize Darrell Beaulieu, a constituent from Wiilideh. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
