Statements in Debates

Debates of , 18th Assembly, 3rd Session (day 14)

Thank you, Mr. Chair. Mr. Chair, I understand this is the department in which I can ask the question about the money allocated to the agriculture strategy implementation. What role is the department playing in the implementation of the strategy with the $150,000 allocated? Thank you.

Debates of , 18th Assembly, 3rd Session (day 14)

Thank you, Mr. Chair. I appreciate the clarification. Historically, I thought that money came out of the status of women council, and that figure hasn't been raised since 2016-2017. It is good news that there is a specific amount of money available for the campaign schools. I just want to confirm now that I understand what the Minister said previously, which is that if all that money is spent then there is an opportunity to obtain more through a supplementary appropriation. Do I have that right? Thank you.

Debates of , 18th Assembly, 3rd Session (day 14)

Thank you, Mr. Chair. Mr. Chair, I'd like to ask the witness how this information has been shared with people who have property on the Ingraham Trail, like I do. Thank you.

Debates of , 18th Assembly, 3rd Session (day 14)

Thank you, Mr. Chair. My next question is about the segment of programs that are listed under women's advisory. I note that, on page 118, the amount of money that is provided to each of these initiatives has been static over a period of time. I am wondering how the government is going to meet its mandate commitment to increase the participation of women in politics without increasing the availability of money to initiatives that would make that happen. Thank you.

Debates of , 18th Assembly, 3rd Session (day 14)

Thank you, Mr. Chair. I will hold my question until we get to the relevant section. Thank you.

Debates of , 18th Assembly, 3rd Session (day 13)

Thank you, Mr. Chair. Thank you for the opportunity to clarify. The Social Work Program and Teacher Education Program enrolments have been frozen. As I understand it, there will be no students going in in September. We have been told that there cannot be any decision about the future of these programs until the foundational review is done, but it seems at some point the college is going to have to make a decision about hanging on to staff who don't have a program to deliver. What is that point? At which point will the Minister be able to either tell people these programs are going to continue...

Debates of , 18th Assembly, 3rd Session (day 13)

Thank you, Mr. Chair. Mr. Chair, I'd like to thank the Finance Minister for clarifying. I feel like there was another nugget of information in there that we didn't have before. From my point of view, I am completely satisfied that we now understand the money, where it came from, where it's going, and that it will be in place in the next budget. I'd like to thank the Finance Minister for that.

With that, Mr. Chair, I have some other unrelated questions on this page. Is now the right time to ask those?

Debates of , 18th Assembly, 3rd Session (day 13)

Thank you, Mr. Chair. Sooner is gooder. Those are all my questions.

Debates of , 18th Assembly, 3rd Session (day 13)

Thank you, Mr. Chair. Mr. Chair, in terms of creating a record on this commitment, is Hansard the only thing that we have to rely on in order to capture this commitment? Thank you.

Debates of , 18th Assembly, 3rd Session (day 13)

Thank you. My final question is: if there is going to be money available in additional ways, such as seniors who are in rentals, does that mean that the threshold for income qualification is going to go up? Thank you.
