Thank you, Madam Chair. Just in regards to the increase on the increases that we're getting in regards, there will never be an increase in housing because of CMHC and the housing allotment from CMHC to the communities. Is our government looking at that, to work with CMHC to get the housing allotments in the communities risen? Because when the housing allotment are if we're putting in new units into a community, we're not able they're taking one out of the previous, our old stock. So is there any way that our government and our Minister is able to try to get increases for the housing stock...

Thank you, Madam Chair. No, there is a private RV park in the community of Tuk. We have and then we have the because there's so many RVers that and tourists that come up to the community, the hamlet of Tuktoyaktuk came upon themselves to try to solve the problem because it's just been too much vehicles coming in, nowhere to park, parking everywhere. So they put allotted like, alloted from 1 to 25. They're paying for that out of their hamlet budget. So under the Hamlet Act, they fall under the Government of the Northwest Territories. They should be getting funds. Are they going to start...

Madam Chair, no, just in regards to that, you know, I think the one that we have seconded into the community, I think she should be focusing a little bit more on working with the hamlet of Tuk in regards to the RV park and getting a plan ready instead of, you know, focusing wholly on the visitors centre and trying to find funding. I think that the community of Tuk, the hamlet of Tuk is stretched to the limit already. And they're providing the service that should be provided by the territorial government as an RV park. I see we got a list here two pages long in regards to different projects...

So anyways, Madam Chair, in regards to the longterm care facility design that they have in Inuvik, again, like I brought up in this House numerous times about my elders in the communities of Ulukhaktok and Paulatuk having to be brought in from the communities when care is too hard to give for families. And, you know, they always say elders aging in place of their home community. I think that there's nothing in the books this go around in regards to a go forward for those two facilities. I mean, I went to the extent of my office, you know, getting designs and that built. But what I'm thinking...

Why? I was promised in the House in the Legislative Assembly during a regular sitting day by the Minister of the day, which is sitting across from me, saying we're allowed to have two, two portables, not four, could do two. We had everything sorted out. Why aren't why is that money not in place to get them done? And it's shameful. They all I always say they got a Minister's directive not to be told they could put it down. Why didn't they pull that trigger when they had the chance? What is going on here is not right, and they know it. They got to look at themselves in the mirror. I got to...

Thank you, Madam Chair. Just give you a little bit of history. April, when we left the House, my mayor of Tuk called me. He was asking me to take the lead on it in regards to it. So I sourced out the land. I sourced out the trailers. I sourced everything out. Did all that work for our government. Had a commitment in this House for two trailers. I tried to get four but I only got two.

And all of a sudden when it's time to purchase the trailers for the community because we're they're looking at adult ed taking away from the community. They were at the time. They were going to take away the gym...

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Noah Henry Carpenter an lnuvialuk from Sachs Harbour, Northwest Territories, known by, in lnuvialuit, as lkaahuk. He was the son of Fred Carpenter and Ada Gruben. He was known as Dr. Noah Carpenter. On behalf of his family, friends and relatives, I would like to share a part of his story of his life.

I begin with some excerpts from CBC Canada. Dr. Noah Carpenter was a highly skilled surgeon, the first lnuvialuk surgeon in Canada. He passed away recently, leaving behind a legacy of hard work and inspiration to many fellow Northerners. Originally from Sachs Harbour...

Two trailers, Madam Chair. So make it happen. Thank you.

Thank you, Madam Chair. Well, that I wouldn't say in the House that like, it's a lie. I had this company sorted out, lined up for them. I went out. I did all the groundwork for them. It would have took six weeks for these portables to be built. And I had them ready for August 15th coming into Tuk if we followed the plan.

Tell me where the money went in regards to being told I'm allowed to have two trailers in the community, not four, on the floor of the House? It's in Hansard. I want these trailers. I want safety of the youth in my community of Mangilaluk School deserve no less than here, no...

Mangilaluk school, page 21. In regards to can I have an update from this Minister in regards to a finished timeline? And I have other questions with that. Thank you, Madam Chair.
