MEMBER’S STATEMENT ON ABORIGINAL LANGUAGES MONTH

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. This month we celebrate Aboriginal languages. Last year I had the pleasure of addressing the House in the Tlicho language. This year, Mr. Speaker, it will be my honour to pay tribute to the South Slavey language.

Mr. Speaker, I would like to take a moment to thank my teacher, who is also a translator here for the House, for helping me. That’s Mr. Jim Hope. Mr. Hope, mahsi.

Once again, a big thank you to the South Slavey culture for letting me share their language today. It was an honour and a lot of fun. Thank you very much.

Speaker: MR. SPEAKER

Thank you, Mr. Dolynny. Member for Hay River South, Mrs. Groenewegen.
