Thank you, Madam Chair. Madam Chair, I was also surprised to hear colleagues mention that perhaps they weren't feeling comfortable accessing this amount of money and just also wanted to clarify that it is the trip money for child care; it is not regular everyday child care, which I think sometimes gets confused. I did try to get it so that I could have my cats covered under this but that wasn't wasn't something that Caucus bought into, but I do strongly also encourage everyone to take use of this, and if anything, I would like to see us providing more support to families. Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, I look forward to the Premier's update on the territorial MOU, and it is my hope that it will be a territorial MOU and not a health and social services MOU or a MACA MOU.

Given that the flooding occurred the Red Cross first got involved with us here this time around during the 20202021 flooding, can the Premier explain why she's taken so long to meet with the Red Cross given that I believe they made that request through the Minister of MACA about a year ago. Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I would also like to recognize my constituent and neighbour Lana de Bastiani, and I appreciate that the Minister said your name because I don't know that I would have been able to pronounce it properly. And I'd also like to recognize Natalie Preston with the CBC who has been here with us this week. Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, there's no way that I can follow what my colleague from Kam Lake said so eloquently and in great detail. I want to thank her for bringing this motion forward because I think it's really captured the high level sort of issues in many of the regions or areas we've been discussing and sort of brings it all back together, and it is about our people, ensuring that our people are set up for success and that we have enough of them, as we often talk about the lack of capacity in the North and that people are our greatest resources and our assets. I just wanted to...

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I also wish you a very good summer.

After a twoyear hiatus due to the pandemic, Skills Canada is back. Last week, the medal results of the 2022 Skills Canada national competition, held in Vancouver were announced. From May 27th to the 28th, 350 students and apprentices from across Canada competed for the title of national champion in 45 skill areas, both in person at the Vancouver Convention Centre, and virtually from their home territories and provinces. Team Northwest Territories is proud to announce they have taken home five medals in skilled trade areas.
