MEMBER’S STATEMENT ON RECOGNITION OF THEBACHA PAGES AND SEASONS GREETINGS

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I’d like to take this opportunity to recognize and thank two of the Pages that have been working with us this week, and waiting on and responding to our every whim, and passing every note and looking after us: Jenni Watts and Katelynn Holtorf, from Fort Smith. Two fine young ladies that are going to be around for a good long time and have been great ambassadors for the community. I’d like to thank them and their mother Rene Watts.

I’d also like to take this opportunity to wish the constituents of Thebacha a very merry Christmas and a happy New Year, as well to the people of the Northwest Territories and to my colleagues present here. As we go home to our families, no matter what happens in this House and the trials and tribulations we have, as you look at what’s happening in the world around us, we know we can go home to our families and, hopefully, a very good time enjoying the families and all the good things that our communities have to offer. It would also be a time I would ask people to count their blessings and think of how many good things we have, especially compared to some of the less fortunate people in the world. Thank you.

Speaker: MR. SPEAKER

Thank you, Mr. Miltenberger. The Member for Yellowknife South, Mr. McLeod.
