Thank you for that introduction, and for the invitation to join you here today.
Chiefs, colleagues, ladies and gentlemen, let me begin by saying what a pleasure it is to have this opportunity to promote the economic potential of the NWT. It is something I get to do a lot of – and it is one of my favourite things to do.
