Member’s Statement 762-20(1): Housing Northwest Territories Maintenance Conference
Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, I want to bring attention to an event that's happening here in Yellowknife this week. It's been happening this week. Mr. Speaker, it's the Housing NWT maintenance conference.
This event, Mr. Speaker, brings together LHO maintenance foremen and the district technical staff for a week to get together to discuss, of course, ongoing maintenance and the importance of preventative maintenance, Mr. Speaker. There was about, I think, close to 50 participants here. They're all at the Explorer Hotel where the conference is taking place. And especially, Mr. Speaker, I'd like to give a shout-out to the Beaufort Delta district office. Last year, they, Mr. Speaker, completed 100 percent of their preventative maintenance, which is a huge accomplishment. It's the first time it's ever been done. And, Mr. Speaker, that Beaufort Delta district office includes Inuvik, Tuk, Aklavik, Tsiigehtchic, Paulatuk, Ulukhaktok, Sachs Harbour, and Fort McPherson, Mr. Speaker.
So, again, a big congratulations to our staff up there. I know how hard they work. It's a small community, so obviously we all know each other, and I know how proud they were of that accomplishment, Mr. Speaker, so a big shout-out to them. Thank you.
Thank you, Member from Inuvik Boot Lake. Members' statements. Member from Tu Nedhe-Wiilideh.
