Sahtu

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, today I would like to acknowledge a well-known lady who is passionate and also a very strong leader that needs no introduction down the Mackenzie Valley. Mr. Speaker, this is a lady who does not stand to any obstacles and when she speaks, she is heard. She is an excellent role model to the youth community, education and the Mackenzie Valley strongly support her. Mr. Speaker, on behalf of the Sahtu Region, I would like to congratulate Cece Hodgson-McCauley who will be receiving the 2017 Indspire Award to be held in Ottawa on March 24, 2017. An award that recognizes the successes of people who have achieved significantly and made a high level of contributions. Mahsi, Mr. Speaker.
