MEMBER’S STATEMENT ON GRAND OPENING OF CHIEF JIMMY BRUNEAU COMMUNITY LIBRARY

Mahsi, Mr. Speaker. [English translation not provided.]

...reality, that’s what happened here. The community of Behchoko wanted a public library, so community members worked together to find a solution. The solution was to provide public access to the existing library at the Chief Jimmy Bruneau School. CJBS has always found ways to be innovative and creative.

Hours of operations are from 9:00 a.m. to 3:15 p.m. Monday to Friday, and evenings on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday, 7:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. This is exciting news for the community of Behchoko and a great opportunity for community members to take advantage of the community library. I’d like to thank the Chief Jimmy Bruneau School staff, the resources and community members for coming up with this solution.

Speaker: MR. SPEAKER

Thank you, Mr. Lafferty. The honourable Member for Inuvik Twin Lakes, Mr. Robert McLeod.
