Mr. Speaker and Members of the Legislative Assembly, good afternoon.
I’d like to offer my sincere congratulations to many Northerners who have, over the past several months, been presented with awards to recognize their many and varied achievements, including educators, graduating students from high schools and Aurora College, “wise women,” NWT volunteers, athletes and coaches, and volunteers of St. John Ambulance.
I’d like to offer my condolences to the families of loved ones who have passed away recently.
As we set to enjoy the summer months – we have waited for that for a long time – I would like to wish each of you a safe, healthy and happy summer as you take your break and enjoy quality time with your families. Please travel safely on the land, on our waters, in the air and on our highways, even as you continue to work for the betterment of all Northerners.
Please encourage and remind all your families, friends and people in your communities to be safe on the land and to wear personal floatation devices when travelling by boat on our waterways.
