Debates of 31 octobre 2018 , 18th Assembly, 3rd Session (day 47)

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I haven't been able to find her, but I have been told that resident of Hay River, Jaylene Delorme-Buggins, is in the gallery. Once again, she is here with the Native Women's Association and, I believe, just recently back from a trip to South America with other Aboriginal youth. She does a lot of good things for the youth. I want to welcome her to the Assembly. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
