Thank you all for taking part in this week’s celebration of business in the North, and in particular, the Northwest Territories.
My thanks to the NWT Chamber of Commerce for their work in organizing this conference, and for the opportunity to share some thoughts with you today.
The NWT Chamber has asked me to address the topic - What Lies Ahead?
Mr. Speaker, the film sector offers extraordinary opportunities for NWT residents to share their stories, landscape, and talent across diverse audiences.
Furthermore, the economic multipliers of film production are among the highest of all active industries in the NWT with seven jobs created for every million dollars spent.
Mr. Speaker, the Northwest Territories holds a virtually untapped wealth of oil and gas resources. The jobs, income and revenues associated with the responsible development of those resources represent an enormous economic and social development opportunity for the people of the Northwest Territories. Our Government is taking steps to realize those opportunities on behalf of our residents.
Good evening, ladies and gentlemen, and congratulations on the conclusion of what I understand has been productive information sharing, and celebration of Canada’s fur trade.
On behalf of the Government of the Northwest Territories, it has been a pleasure to co-host the Fur Institute’s AGM this year.
My congratulations to the Institute’s Board of directors, for hosting this meeting in Yellowknife and for your continued efforts to advance the interests of Canada’s trappers on the world stage.
