Mr. Speaker, I give notice that on Thursday, May 22, 2008, I will move the following motion: Now therefore I move, seconded by the honourable Member for Mackenzie Delta, that this Assembly urge the Prime Minister of Canada to make a public apology to the many aboriginal people who suffered abuse while attending federally funded residential schools, and further, that this Assembly strongly recommends the Premier of the Northwest Territories communicate this desire to the Prime Minister at the next opportunity.

Mr. Speaker, at the appropriate time, I will be seeking unanimous consent to deal with this motion today.
