It's good to hear that there's principle to engage on a move-forward plan. My next question is: is it the willingness of the Minister to come and visit one of the Sahtu communities, have a look at these buildings and the other elements to form a forward plan here for revisiting the institution of setting up of Sahtu Tech?

I welcome that initiative here, and some things have changed since that time. I guess one cost measure in favour of this institution to revisit or review, is that the four bands in the Sahtu most recently have formed a joint venture, acquired some building assets from the former hotel owner and have moved on to acquire another…

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Today I rise in the House here to acknowledge the participants and youth of the Sahtu riding and particularly two communities. Today, I would like to congratulate our Sahtu athletes who are participating in the 2016 Arctic Winter Games to be held in Nuuk, Greenland, this coming March, which is the next few days. On behalf of the Sahtu, I send my highest congratulations to Whitney Andre, Tristan Dolphus, Naomi Yukon, Dalton Takazo, and Dallas Roach, from Deline, and Emily Hodson from Norman Wells, chaperoned by Bobby Birk also from Norman Wells. The Arctic Winter Games...

Would the Minister propose some dates in the next 90 days -- I know we're going to be busy, but “proposed” is the right choice of words on dates there -- for a site community visit to analyze this potential?

My question of the Minister is: will he be willing to look at the building bought by the bands as well, because we've got a building?

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Today my question is to the Minister of Education, Culture and Employment. It's in regards to carrying on the torch here on Sahtu regional trades technical centre. My predecessor brought this up many times. In my research here, I want to quote a motion that was passed. It says, “Now, therefore I move, seconded by the honourable Member of the Yellowknife Centre.” This is a document dated February 2014. It says, “The GNWT will conduct a planning study in the 2014-2015 fiscal year for a Sahtu regional institute of technology, and further, that the Government of the...

As advised here by a notable leader of mine, I would like to ask the Minister when and what dates she would be available within the next 60 days, so we could coordinate with the leadership of the Sahtu.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. In my statement earlier, I mentioned I was going to address the housing minister on questions that are within our riding. As also mentioned earlier, housing needs are a fast-growing desire of many clients and many young couples and general public in all the communities.

My question to the Minister is: Can I get an inventory list on the assessment of the five set to communities? There are three types the units in all the communities. You got foreclosure units that are sitting there, as one of my previous colleagues have mentioned. They’re sitting dormant doing nothing...

I will take up that offer of the Minister and correspond accordingly.

I look forward to the information. My next question is, once we have the information, and considering the next few days we have of this Second Session, there will be some time for some people, but I am hoping that the Minister will have time and if she is willing to attend the Sahtu Housing Conference.
