[This statement will be spoken in French]
Mr. Speaker, work in the Northwest Territories is evolving, and our laws must keep up. That is why, in 2023, the Government of the Northwest Territories launched a review of the Employment Standards Act and Regulations; the first comprehensive review in over a decade. Workplaces have changed significantly, and our legislation must ensure fair, modern protections for workers and clarity for employers.
