Member’s Statement 6-20(1): Gratitude and Holiday Wishes

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. And I'd like to echo my colleagues' comments here. There's a lot of hope in this Assembly, and we're all willing to work together and work hard and lead.

I just want to offer my appreciation to the constituents of Nunakput for electing me. And like I've told them before, I am willing to work and work hard for them, recognizing all the challenges we have, especially in the vast and remote riding that is Nunakput.

Many of us are going through the holiday season and going into this thinking of Christmas and spending time with our family, but I also want to offer condolences to the family, the Chicksi family, the Kasook family in Tuktoyaktuk, the Koudluk family in Ulukhaktok, and also the Taylor family who are experiencing a loss right now, and I want to express my condolences to them. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.

Speaker: MR. SPEAKER

Thank you, Member from Nunakput. Member from the Deh Cho.
