Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, along a similar thread, I'm curious to hear from the Minister about our summer student hiring. What are our hiring numbers like? Is there anything that she has to deliver related to this and how it might relate to health care as well? Thank you, Mr. Speaker.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, I note that Aurora College has a newly appointed board chair. Mr. Speaker, I appreciate the Minister talking about the mandate. Mr. Speaker, how does the Minister plan to work in concert with the new chair to promote post-secondary investment in our territory? Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, Mr. Speaker, today I would like to acknowledge the staff and students of Ecole Allain St-Cyr on 35th Anniversary of this important Frame Lake institution.

The NWT's French- first language school got its humble beginning in 1989 with a single class in a portable classroom at Ecole J.H. Sissons on the initiative of passionate francophone parents. 35 years later, the school has grown considerably. It has its own building on Taylor Road now and is home to more than 200 French-first language students, from pre-kindergarten to grade 12. A ceremony celebrating the...

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, I think support for this bill is very -- how do I put it -- it's very easy to give, and so I don't have a lot to say and to build upon what the Member already said what my colleague just said right now.

Mr. Speaker, quite simply, as put to me by one of the firefighters I was just chatting with, dealing with a cancer diagnosis or PTSD, the last thing that you want or need to be dealing with is advocating for yourself with the WSCC, and that's primarily what this bill is looking at, is just taking that stress away from the situation and knowing -- helping...

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, I have questions for the Minister of Finance. Mr. Speaker, we've talked a lot about health care in this Assembly in the past sitting. Can the Minister talk to us about healthcare staff recruitment and retention, what is her department been doing and achieving with relation to bringing healthcare staff into the territory? Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, the federal government is looking to build Canada into the world's leading hub for science and innovation. What opportunities does the Minister for ECE see for the NWT in that ambitious commitment? Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. As we wind down session and Ministers turn their attention to upcoming meetings in Ottawa, I want to emphasize the biggest gap I continue to see in our economic strategy: northern education and research.

We don't yet have a cohesive economic vision but just looking at our federal engagement strategy, it's clear that our strategy is heavily focused on road and power infrastructure. Those are undeniably important and very expensive projects but, as I've noted in numerous statements in the past, we also need to be looking at investing in our people, fostering research and...

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I certainly appreciate that answer, and it sounds like the Premier had more to say so I would encourage perhaps a more fulsome response in writing.

Mr. Speaker, I'd like further an update on the mandate commitment to empower the public service by ensuring they are provided the flexibility to deliver programs and implement policies in ways that best serve residents. Mr. Speaker, can the Premier describe what changes have been implemented in the public service to better empower staff? Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. So, Mr. Speaker, I think that the suggestion is not necessarily that we establish our own Crown corporation but could SGI be brought in, as they've done in other provinces, to provide insurance in the Northwest Territories and thereby give Northwest Territories access to a larger base, the way we do for some other things. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Continuing on the insurance theme. Can the Minister tell us if the Office of the Superintendent of Insurance have received complaints from homeowners and/or businesses that they are essentially unable to access affordable insurance? Thank you.
