Motion 26-16(2) NWT Milk Subsidy Program

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I give notice that on Monday, October 20, 2008, I will move the following motion.

I move, seconded by the honourable Member for Frame Lake, that the Government of the Northwest Territories establish a milk subsidy program for all children aged one to 12 in any community where milk costs are 10 per cent or more higher than those in Yellowknife, and further, that the Government of the Northwest Territories include the cost of the milk subsidy program in the 2000–2010 budget and implement the program in early 2009.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker.

Speaker: Mr. Speaker
