As a demonstration of unity in Nunavut for the future, our government intends to take measures to bring all the people of Nunavut into a single time zone, from Qikiqtarjuaq to Kugluktuk, from Davis Strait to the Coronation Gulf, from the Belcher Islands in the south to Ellesmere Island at the top of the globe.

You talk about the fact that as an Assembly you will work with civility and build consensus and I am sure that's true, but in my experience it's unlikely that the next sittings of this Legislature will be as sober and as calm as this.

Out of the original Northwest Territories it built first the province of Manitoba in 1870, then the Yukon Territory in 1898 followed by the creation of Saskatchewan and Alberta in 1905 and then further additions to Manitoba at the turn of the century.

It is a testament to the strength and importance of the partnership that has been forged amongst the Inuit, the governments of Nunavut, the Northwest Territories and Canada, that despite the fact that there has been a division of land, a division of assets and a division of resources, the language and understanding of what we are doing has always been expressed in terms of creation.

Mr. Speaker, I am honoured to present our first Government of Nunavut Budget.

-----
This Budget Address, along with the Main Estimates which I am tabling today, provides our financial position and plans for our first fiscal year of operation, which ends March 31, 2000.
*************** 
kanatalimaami iliqqusiuvakput kiinaujalirinirmut ministait saqqitittillutit kiinaujaqturutiksanit nutaanit isigaujaqsimallutit.

Across this country tradition has Finance Ministers delivering new budgets wearing new shoes.
***************

-----
In establishing a Nunavut tradition, I am proud today to be wearing a pair of new caribou kamiks made by respected elder Bessie Omilgoetok of Cambridge Bay.
*************** 
uqaqtii, kamiik nutaak, kiinaujaqturutiksat nutaat, pigiarniq nutaaq.
-----
Mr. Speaker, new kamiks, a new budget, a new beginning.
*************** 
tamatumani kiinaujaqtututsanik kajusittialisaarutiqarniaqpugut tiurituarijataarijattinnut.
-----
This Budget ensures the early success of our new territory.
*************** 
sanngijumik tunngavigijunnarniarivavut sivuniksatinnit pilirivalliatilluta.
-----
It also provides a strong foundation on which we can build our future.
*************** 
nunavumiut pijarialingit angijualuuvut.
-----
The needs of Nunavummiut are great.
*************** 
niriugijavut quvvasikput.

Our expectations are high.

-----
But like the journey taken by the Founders of Nunavut which led to the creation of our new territory, the meeting of those needs and the realization of those expectations will take time.
*************** 
maligaliqutilimaat kattungairniqaqjuaqput tamanna saqqiqullugu qilamiujunnaqtumik.
-----
There is a great conviction on the part of all MLAs to see that this happens in the least amount of time possible.
*************** 
gavamakkut pinasuagangit pijittirautingillu sanajaukkanniriarniaqput qilamiujunnaqtutigut inuit pijamajangit naammattitausaaliniqsauqullugit;
-----
Government programs and services will be reshaped as quickly as possible to better meet the needs of the people;
*************** 
ammalu nunavuumik tautugaq naammattitausaaliniqsauqullugu.
-----
and to better meet the vision of Nunavut.
*************** 
pinasuagarnut pijittirautinullu asijjirutit ilangit pijausimaanipput, takuksaullutillu kiinaujaqturutiksami.
-----
Some changes to programs and services have been made already, and are reflected in our Budget.
*************** 
asikkanningit asijjirutauniaqtut parnatauvalliavut nalunaiqtauniaqtutillu taqqiniaqtuni.
-----
Many other changes are in the planning stages and will be announced in the coming months.
***************

-----
One option that does not exist is for us to fund new programs, services and capital projects without regard to our fiscal means and circumstances.

Our Fiscal Plan
*************** 
nunavut gavamanga akaunaarniqaqpuq pigiarniqariaksaq katippalliasimajumik akiittuqarani akiliksanilluunniit.
-----
The Government of Nunavut is in the fortunate position of starting without an accumulated deficit, or debt load.

aturuminauliraluaqtuni akiliutauniarlutit kiinaujatuqtuujunut pijaalinnut pinasuagarnut pijittirautinut akitujunullu, silainniugajaqpuq taimaittuugutta.
-----
Despite the attractiveness of borrowing money to finance current spending on needed government programs, services and capital projects, such actions would be short-sighted.
*************** 
pittailijariaqarniaqpavut iluanngiliurutaujut asitta gavamanut.
-----
We must avoid the problems faced by other governments.
*************** 
aturniaqpugut tukiqattiaqtumik kiinaujaqturutiksatigut atuagarmik ingirrajunnaqsiniaratta nunavumi inuunasunniq quvvasigiaqullugu.

We are adopting a sound budgetary policy which will allow us to move towards improving the quality of life in Nunavut.
***************

-----
Most governments, including the federal government, have large accumulated debt loads.
*************** 
tamakkununga qiturngiurutialualungit mikillitirutauvakput atukkannirajaqtunit qanimattailinirmut ilinnianirmut asinginnullu inuuqatigiitiguangajunut.
-----
The associated interest costs greatly reduce the amount of money that can be spent on health, education and other important social programs.
*************** 
asittatitut ukiuqtaqtimi qaujisimavugut nakatirutausimajunit inuusilirijjutinut.
-----
Similar to other jurisdictions, here in the North we have seen the impact of reductions in spending on our social programs.
***************

Most governments in Canada have experienced negative effects from financing current programs and services with borrowed money.

I think what's important to recognize probably, and again when the Department of Human Resources comes before a Committee of the Whole with the budget, we can probably get in to some more detail about what the expectations are, but I think what's important to recognize is not so much the qualifications that we're looking at as the ability of an individual to be able to carry out the functions within the job.

-----
The Committee has the following general observations and comments.
*************** 
ilitarijaujarialik qimirruniup iliqqusinga pilaurmat ajjiunngittumi qilamikkut.
-----
It should be recognized that the review process occurred in a uniquely short period of time.
*************** 
ajjiginngisiaqtanga iliqqusiujumi ualinirmi maligaliurvingmi qimirruvangmata aulanirmut parnautinit nalauksaagallattaanillu taqqinut atausiunngittunut.
-----
It contrasts to the practices in the Western Assembly where the review of business plans and main estimates takes place over a period of several months.
*************** 
makimainnaqtunut katimajiralaat tamaani piviqannginiqsaulauqput.
-----
Members of the Standing Committees here had much less time.
*************** 
ilitaqsisiaqpugut ministaittauq naittukulungmik piviqalaurmatattauq qaujimanasunnirmik avittuqsimajaqutiminit.
-----
Indeed we fully recognize that Ministers themselves had very short timelines to familiarize themselves with their departments.
*************** 
uqaqtii katimajiralaat ilitaqsivut kiinaujaqturutiksaup iliqqusinga arraaguttinni ajjiunngimmat.
-----
Mr. Speaker, the Committee recognizes that the budget process this year has been unique.
***************

-----
Both the 1999/2000 Departmental Estimates and Capital Plans were substantially decided upon prior to all members having the opportunity to make input.
*************** 
maligaliuqtit quviasulaunngilat suqquimanaqtuqannginninganik qanuq aaqqittaujut pijaulaurninginnit.
-----
Members were disappointed at the lack of clarity provided as to how some decisions were arrived at.
*************** 
niriuppugut kiinaujaqturutiksaup iliqqusinga arraaguulaaqtuq qaijigiarniqarniqsaujumaaqtuq, tamainnut maligaliuqtituinnarnut nunalinnullu.
-----
We expect that the budget cycle for next year will involve significantly greater consultation, both with regular members and with the communities.
*************** 
pinasuarusirmi katimajiralaat katimaninginni naasautit tukisigiarutiqarniujullu avittuqsimajuniinngaaqtut piusivaalliqjualauqput.
-----
Over the course of the week of the Committees' deliberations, the amount and level of detail of information provided by the departments improved greatly.
*************** 
kisianili niriugijaqaqpugut tukisigiarutit avittuqsimajuniinngaaqtut katimajiralaanut piusigiakkanirniaqtut akuniutiginingatigut ammalu iluliqarningatigut pijunnaqsivallianingit malillugit.
-----
However, it is our expectation that the information flow from the departments to the Committees will improve in terms of time lines and level of detail as capacity is built within the departments.
*************** 
ilitaqsimmijugut avittuqsimajut inuktituuliqtitautittijunnarningit tamainnik titirarnit maannaujut mikijuummat.
-----
We also recognize that the capacity of departments to translate all materials into Inuktitut is, at present, limited.
*************** 
niriuppugut pilirianguniaqtut pijunnaqsivallianiq tavvuuna sivulliujjaunirijauniaqtuq gavamakkunnut taakkununga.
-----
It is our expectation that efforts will be made to ensure that capacity development in this regard is treated as a matter of priority of this government.
*************** 
uqaqtii, katimajiralaat qaujilauqput sivuliarutat aulanirmut parnautit ajjigiinnginniqalaurmata tukisigiarutiqarnitigut.
-----
Mr. Speaker, the Committee noted that draft business plans were inconsistent in terms of the level of detail contained.
*************** 
ajjigiipalummik aaqqiksimaniqaraluaqtutit katimajiralaat qaujilaurmijut amisut pillattaat angijuutillu turaagait aaqqiksimaniillu tukisigiarutiqaratik kisunit atuqtut pijariaqarniarmangaata kajusiniksanginnut ammalu qanutigimut pijunnallarikkajaraluarmangaata.
-----
Although they generally followed a similar format, the Committee also noted that plans contained a large number of specific and ambitious goals and strategies without much detail as to what resources would be required to achieve them and to what time frames were realistic.
*************** 
uqaqtii iliqqusitigut tukiliarinitigut parnautinit, katimajiralaat upigusunniqaqput avittuqsimajunit angijumik pinasuarninginnut, kisianili suli avittuqsimajut iqqanaijaqtitaaqpalliammata katimajiralaat piqujigaluaqput avittuqsimajut nalunaiqsimaniqsauqullugit aaqqiinasunnirmik qilamikkut ungasinnisaaqjukkut ungasiktumullu sivulliuqujaminit.
-----
Mr. Speaker in terms of strategic direction of the plans, the Committee commends the departments for their ambitions, however, given that the departments are still in the process of staffing up, the Committee would suggest that departments be more specific in terms of establishing what their short, medium and long term priorities are.
*************** 
nalunaiqtaisimavuq nunavumiut nalunaijaqsimajumik niriunniqariaqarmata gavamakkut kajusijunnaqtanginnit.
-----
It has been pointed out that the people of Nunavut need to have clear expectations of what the government can deliver.
*************** 
avittuqsimajut atuutiksaqaqput tusaqtittittiarnirmik qanuittut niriugijaujunnallattaarmangaata qattungautivut sivunittinni isumagilugit.
-----
Departments have a role to play in communicating clearly what expectations are realistic given the constraints that are facing us.

-----
A point, which all Committee members noted, was the frequency with which all of the departments referred to the concept of IQ, and its' importance to the new government in terms of decision making.
*************** 
kisianili sivumuarniqaluanngilaq tukitaaqtittinirmik aulajunnautimillu tamatuminnga isumagijamik nalliannituinnaq iliqqusillattaatigulluunniit.
-----
However, there appears to be as yet little progress yet in defining and operationalizing this concept in any particular, or systematic way.
*************** 
atuliqtitauningata kajusittiarutinga tunngavuq inulimaani gavamakkut quliriilimaanginniittut suqquimattiarninginnit tukinganik piqjuanguninganillu.
-----
The success of its' implementation depends upon people at all levels of government having a clear understanding of the concept and its' critical importance.

I just wanted to ask, I don't think the Premier was clear that any time when the Government is going to negotiate, which the motion stated the Government is going to negotiate with the Union, that they should be open, and the Government stated from the beginning that they want to have open, transparent government and since that is the statement of the Government, what kind of goals and objectives would the Government have before they had an agreement with the Union.

I guess, Mr. Chairman, in respect of taxation every year, and we haven't had the opportunity this year obviously with the development of the budget, as all the Members know, but for the upcoming budget, this tax would be reviewed just like all the other taxes that this government imposes on individuals, corporations or consumers throughout Nunavut.

As it stands now though this tax was designed as a tax by the GNWT to try to capture some of the leakage of the revenues of individuals that were working in the Northwest Territories but weren't residing there and were receiving services.

In that perspective, I think the theory behind the tax is a sound one, it's just a matter of, as the member indicated, what's the cost of administering it. The other advantage of this payroll tax, quite frankly, is that it's a benefit.

It's probably a bit premature to be thinking about that at this day, so if we try to get this budget out of the way and then try to develop some strategic priorities as a Cabinet and as a Caucus.

Mr. Chairman, generally those types of Boards and Agencies are responsible for their own finances, if they get into a deficit position normally they're responsible for putting in place a deficit reduction plan that has to be approved, usually by whichever the Department is working with them.

As I had indicated we've figured during the course of the year, as more departments get through their programming that there are going to be some not fully funded positions as a result of a slow recruitment process, that there will be a bit of flexibility, but again we have to be careful that we're fiscally responsible and how we address that issue.

Basically, if we had, for example, 50 million dollars of assets for a transfer from the GNWT, as the net amount after the division of assets and liabilities is concluded, and if we had the 4 million dollars we used, as an example, for the Office of the Interim Commissioner as a negative.

Mr. Chairperson, as I also indicated earlier, depending on the state of the expenditures and programs, the government, on an ongoing basis through the Financial Management Board would be reviewing those expenditures and if there are extraordinary expenses in a department there is the authority for supplementary appropriations to move dollars between departments in addressing those needs and reallocate it within the programs within the department to meet those needs.

In respect to the 3.8 million dollars and how much expenditure, we may be looking forward to the power plant which is supposed to be built in Clyde River.

-----
In light of this if that is the way it is, I would have a concern because the money we have for power subsidies is rather small, and perhaps if this could be clarified I would like to hear more as to whether this meets the whole year power subsidy.

-----
What is actually happening is the staff under the executive in intergovernmental affairs has a small working group of officials made up of government representatives that is putting together information that will allow for presentation of some options in respect of decentralization.

-----
I think what the concern is, quite frankly, is even though there is monetary PY's out there for the decentralized model, some of what I wasn't aware of yesterday, and became aware of afterwards, speaking of after the Committee of the Whole, when I had an opportunity to review more details with my officials.
***************

-----
Some of the relocation costs weren't fully provided for, to my understanding, for the decentralized model, so the PY positions are there, there is some travel budgets attached to that for the individuals, but there isn't total relocation costs, establishment costs as it stands now.
***************

I think what the members have to recognize too, is that it's easy to put in the position, but you have to have the support, in respect of housing, in respect to the office space.

Those are the kinds of issues the committee as a whole has to grapple with in respect of timing for putting in the positions for decentralization and meeting the needs of the staff that are going to be put in place.

-----
Mr. Speaker, is it fair to say, then, if a community has the office accommodations, has the housing accommodations in place, then has the human resources available to fill these positions, and as you've indicated yesterday, the funding has been incorporated into the budget, if all these factors are in place, would there be any reason why these positions could not be filled A.S.A.P.?

Yes, Mr. Speaker, it goes back to the priorities of the government, and the timing, back to the timing of the implementation of decentralization, and of staffing of the government as a whole.

-----
In particular the department of Human Resources, if I could use that for an example because it's under my responsibility, that is tasked with filling and recruiting on behalf of all the departments, they don't have the capabilities right now of going out there wholesale and trying to fill all the positions.

Mr. Speaker, is the Acting Premier saying that, I hope he's saying that, the decentralized model is not in jeopardy, that we're only talking about logistics and timing, and that the communities that are ready to take on these positions, whether it be this month, next month, or six months, that there shouldn't be any concerns or any fear that these positions will not come to the communities as they were promised.

Mr. Speaker as I had indicated there is some dollars for relocation within the budget of Human Resources, but there isn't enough to establish 100 per cent of the positions based on those decentralized, because it was always recognized that it wouldn't be possible to do everything within the first year of operation and it would have to be a phased in process over a number of years.

My final question.

If we're just going to be recruiting from outside of Nunavut, I don't think that that is acceptable.

I think by providing educational opportunities and training opportunities in Nunavut that would stop a lot of recruiting that's happening right now in southern Canada.

We also have inmates who are in penitentiaries in southern Canada, and, following their time in these facilities, they have to return to their communities and they will be coming through the correctional centre, here in Iqaluit, on their way home.

These are clearly part of the process of using Inuit Qaujimanituqangit, but the Standing Committee knows that Inuit Qaujimanituqangit is much more than this, although mindful that developing consensus as to what Inuit Qaujimanituqangit means across Nunavut will be a difficult task.

For such as the delivery of Social Services, however, it is uncertain what the Government of Nunavut policy will be in this regard.

tamaunattauq gavamakkungit nunavuup qimirrujunnaqtut katujjiqattaniarmangaarmik ilaulutik nunalinni Hammalakkut ammalu inuit timiqutingit.
-----
That the Government of Nunavut Departments provide the Standing Committee with a written statement their commitment to working with communities and detailed plans as to how they will accomplish this. What is their goal in the delivery of these important services, in particular for these three departments, how do they intend to work with this and what support do they intend to provide to the community groups.

-----
Specified in their presentations, the District Education Authorities, the Community Health Committee, the proposed Community based Inuit Cultural Heritage Committees and elders councils and societies. The standing committee welcomed the stated commitment on behalf of each of these departments to draw on elders and Inuit Qaujimanituqangit into their programs.

-----
However there was concern that beyond the good intentions, there were no detailed plans and at this point there seems to be no policy direction to the government as a whole. As noted above, if Inuit Qaujimanituqangit is going to be one of the cornerstones of this government, the Cabinet has to make a very clear statement in this regard.

-----
Departments must have clear plans and elders must be supported and allowed to participate. In order to meaningfully involve elders in the policy making process and into program delivery, the Standing Committee believes that elders councils or societies in each community require consistent support.
*************** 
atuliqujaq
-----
This support should provide the appropriate co-ordination and administrative support, physical facility support and compensation for the elders' work. It seems clear that the department of Culture, Language, Elders & Youth does not have enough funding for this task.

-----
While no one department seems to have specific funding programs directed to this purpose, it was noted that many departments have funding programs that could be directed to this purpose and some have done so to date. Departments should be encouraged to work together to ensure that a co-ordinated effort makes this happen.

-----
In the case of the three departments being reviewed, funding programs at both the Federal and Territorial level could support elders councils to play a role in community wellness. Using, for example, Brighter Futures, prenatal nutrition which is in health, and in the schools, education, in the teaching and delivery of arts and crafts programs with arts and crafts funding.
***************

Other departments, for example, Justice, community Justice and Sustainable Development, utilizing economic development, also have programs which could be partnered into such an initiative. Where the government of Nunavut could look in creating partnerships with local Hamlet Councils as well as Inuit Organizations.

Local Hamlets often provide income support through financial administration and meeting space for elders councils and these needs should continue to be supported in some communities. In some communities, churches and heritage groups have provided support to elders associations and these groups should be part of the process.

-----
In furtherance of the role of elders councils, in working to preserve the local heritage and culture, Inuit Organizations, such as the Inuit Heritage Trusts and the regional Inuit Organizations should also have a role to play. Members believe that the resources are there only if a focussed and co-ordinated effort mobilizes them to be used for this crucial purpose.
*************** 

-----

*************** 
atuliqujaq
-----
That as an immediate priority, the Government of Nunavut prepare a policy statement on the involvement of elders in policy development and program delivery or services. That the department of Culture, Language, Elders & Youth prepare an options paper for Cabinet after consultation with other departments and stakeholders on funding support to elders councils at the community level which would build partnerships amongst departments, local governments as well as Inuit Organizations utilizing existing funding programs at a federal and territorial level as well as local resources to ensure the participation of elders in policy development and program delivery or services at the community level and Nunavut wide.

-----
Although Ministers continually stated that there would be a close working relationship between the Cabinet and the regular members, members of the Standing Committee were frustrated at not being given the budget and program detail which was required for them to conduct a proper interim review. Some departments were more forthcoming with community specific information and financial details.

It is regrettable then, that it is from imperfect information that the Standing Committees must make their recommendations. Members expect that the inadequacies of the current process are part of the growing pains of a new government and that, with a few changes, the goal of a close working relationship between the Cabinet and the regular members will be fulfilled in the future.

The centralized approach to the delivery of Human Resource programs reflects the fact that the Nunavut Government is a relatively small organization. The 99/2000 budget for the Department of Human Resources is just over 10 million dollars.

Mr. Minister, in reference to the fact that this department is, I guess the key department to hiring and training, I would ask you how you see your department, even though the Premier hasn't identified a Minister, which I feel is kind of unfortunate at this point in time because it is probably one of the most critical issues facing the smaller communities that are waiting for decentralization to occur. Given the fact that hasn't happened, how do you see your department fitting in to this overall plan as it relates to human resources for the decentralized communities?

What efforts or what plan do you have in place at this time to get people ready to take on these positions, realizing that, as it was indicated in your earlier report, that some of the academic qualifications are being revised to make sure that we give northerners an opportunity to obtain these jobs even though they may not have the so called academic qualifications or diploma.

It may not have been a liquor warehouse, it may have been, I got it mixed up, from my understanding and recollection, I think it was the Liquor Licensing Board that was slated to be moved and the administration that was going to be moved to Gjoa Haven and of course the merits of that based on the fact that the only liquor warehouse in Nunavut right now is here in Iqaluit, and so that is where the mix up might have been Mr. Chairman.

Maybe I could ask if the Minister could look into how the process is being done right now, because I've been aware of that allocation committee that previously was responsible for allocating units in the Baffin, that's no longer responsible for that they've been told, it's out of their hands now and there is someone else responsible for the allocation of units that are out there.

I can acknowledge the Ministers' Comments in answering the question, but again, could the Minister indicate whether all the units that are available for staff housing in Iqaluit, including the new units that were obtained through the OIC and the Noble house units, and up the hill if those units too are also allocated under the same process.

Listening to the C.B.C. this morning, I understand that the media have started to refer to Members on this side of the House as Nunavut's Opposition.

Mr. Speaker, I don't believe that any of the regular Members would apologize for asking tough but crucial questions to the Cabinet, however for me at least, I don't see myself as belonging to a southern style opposition to the Government.

-----
What we are working to accomplish, is to ensure through our questions through the work of the Standing Committees of the Assembly, that the Government's actions are scrutinized in the way in which all democratic governments are, however it must be remembered that when questions go unanswered or responded to with a vaguest of words that perhaps some frustration shows and the media are indeed correct to describe us as feisty.

While the numbers of classrooms is increasing, we have to consider the other services for which there will also be an increased demand, such as school bussing.

Mr. Speaker I want to make the point that these are examples of forced growth.

The money allocated for services such as school bussing has to keep up with the demand due to more students.

To give members a sense of the problem, one bus for the middle school can hold forty four students per trip.

Currently, I believe there are one hundred and seventy seven or one hundred and seventy five students enrolled at the middle school, of which one hundred and sixty of them will require bussing.

So, with one bus to service those students, that bus would have to make four trips in the morning, eight trips during lunch hour, and four trips in the afternoon just to handle the middle school.

-----
And I spoke to him earlier today in respect to the Clyde River Hamlet and the process that they are undertaking, however when I called my home community, I checked to see if there was work being conducted with the Hamlet and whether the Ministers Officials have worked with them.
***************

It is an emergency measure and is putting them in a hard spot and if they are not speaking to the Minister, I believe that they have to work together immediately with the Hamlet of Clyde River.

We would have to have an agreement with the Hamlet and at this time we have not reached an agreement yet on this matter. In respect to the Community Government Department and the Hamlet, in Clyde River, once we come to an agreement on the deficit and in respect to the matter then we will be able to proceed.

-----
Although they are undertaking that process, the residents of my community have not been touched and although the Minister stated that they are working together, they said they are not working together and that way it is causing a problem, and I am wondering where this statement that they are working with the Hamlet has come from when nobody is working with them, and I think it is very important that they press ahead at this moment.

-----
Mr. Speaker we are already working with them, but again, the agreement is holding us back because we have to have an agreement with the Hamlet and we have to have discussions with them. As I stated yesterday, I stated that it had not been dealt with prior to April when we were still under the G.N.W.T.

The S.A.O. of the Hamlet has been speaking with my officials in respect to this matter Our officials are working with them at the present time with the Hamlet Council and the only holdback right now is the agreement on the repayment and once that is completed it will be finalized.

Mr. Speaker, My question is directed to the Minister Responsible for Health and Social Services and it involves the recent rewarding of a contract regarding the Ublivik Centre.

-----
This contract, or this award, has caused quite a bit of controversy in the last month or so, and for the benefit of the Members, I would ask the Minister if he could provide us with the information on the process that was used to award this contract and it's present status. Speaker:

-----
Mr. Speaker I know that there are concerns with the public on this contract and that is why I requested a review by our Department of Health and Social Services as well as a review by the Department of Public Works and Justice.
***************

For clarity Mr. Speaker if you would bear with me I would like to give a background on the reason for the R.F.P. and a chronological sequence of events on the R.F.P.

-----
to help answer the question, to hopefully put more light on this contract award. The Keewatin Health and Social Services Board has historically contracted with Eastgate Inuit Enterprises to provide boarding home facilities and patient transportation in Winnipeg.

-----
In December of 1998, the Keewatin Health and Social Services Board requested a Request for Proposals, in other words an R.F.P., for patient boarding facilities and transportation services in Winnipeg.
*************** 
taimannaulauqtut aivaniqanngingaaqtutit kaanturaamik maannaujuq pijaulauqtumik ukua pijjutaullutit.

They did this rather than negotiating a contract with the current service provider for the following reasons.

Now since 1995, Mr. Speaker, the provision of services has been by a verbal arrangement, a verbal arrangement only to operate under the same terms and conditions as outlined in the expired contract.
***************

The Capital Items, which were listed in the report, I guess just to give you an example, the garage was written down along with the Community Hall and they were supposed to be in the Capital Plan, but they are not in the Budget Address for 1999 - 2000 fiscal year and in this Capital Purchase for Gjoa Haven.

At this point in time Gjoa Haven has a population of over 1 thousand and we have stated to have the Community Hall expanded, especially when we try to use the Community Hall, but it's now way too small, it cannot fit half the people and it causes concerns for Public Health and it's also very small and if any emergency occurred, for example if fire broke out in the Community Hall, people would have to run over each other.

-----
I remember that the Government, when they first came to the Inuit Homeland, we were told to move to a community and we were told that we will build houses, so that you can live in one community instead of being scattered and again I was one of those who was told to move to a community and the Government moved me from my camp, although I had been where I wanted to be.

-----
For that reason the Minister of Housing should look at Nunavut, because Nunavut has long winters and he should speak with the Federal Government and whether he has discussions with them and what options they have looked at, because they have to understand from us or at least the Federal Government does, that Nunavut has to be given special status, because our Nunavut has very long winters and the South maybe the winter lasts for 1 or 2 months possibly 3.

The RFP was put out by the Keewatin Regional Health and Social Services Board.

There are other factors that were looked into and I had mentioned some of them, Article 24 for an example, the quality of service with the proposal itself.

-----
I guess it's safe to say that the contract after it was reviewed again by PWS with the Department of Health and Social Services and Justice, the contract award seemed to serve the people of Nunavut and Keewatin Region.
*************** 
ammattauq tuksiraut qanuilaunngimmat isumavungalu akinga asiatigut pijittirniup piuninga, taikkua pijittirniaqtut.

As well, the proposal was sound and I think the fact is that, other than prices, was the quality of the service, of facilities, the people involved to deliver the service.
***************

-----
Mr. Speaker, I think the Government of Nunavut, the people of Nunavut recognize that Mrs. Penner for several years has done a very good job and dedicated herself to taking care of the residents of the Keewatin Region.
*************** 
tukisinaqtuq qanuimmat quviasunngittuqtaqarninganik ilangani asianik kaanturaaktaujuqalaurmat.

I can understand why there would be some disappointment that another contractor has been selected.

-----
I think it's fair also to say however that the Government of Nunavut and the Keewatin Regional Health and Social Services have the responsibility, Mr. Speaker, have the responsibility to the people of Nunavut to ensure the contractor with the best value is selected.
***************

-----
This is done through an RFP, as I explained, I went through the process which the Keewatin Health and Social Services Board undertook which they did thoroughly and fairly and I'm confident of that proposal.
*************** 
taimannaummat tukisiavunga misis pinaup qaujisimajanganik tunisimaninganillu.

So I understand the experience and the dedication of Mrs. Penner.
***************

I think it's just when the RFP came forward, the criteria was set out and everyone was on an equal footing.

-----
The Keewatin Regional Health and Social Services Board picked the contractor, that the final contract was awarded to based on the criteria that was in place.
*************** 
taimaanguttialauqpuq piullunilu iliqqusirijaujuq tukisiavungalu quviasunnginniqalaurmat inuk kaanturaamik kamalauqtumik ukiukallannut.

It was a fair, sound process and I understand there would be disappointment from the person who had run the contract for several years.
*************** 
uqaqqaugama kaanturaak pijuminiulaurmat 1995minik, uqakkutuinnaq pisimaliqtuni.
-----
As I explained earlier, the contract was holdover since 1995, it was a verbal commitment.
***************

-----
The Keewatin Health and Social Services Board had some concerns with the way the contract had been handled and indeed the proponent, Mrs. Penner had the same kind of concerns, so they went to a competitive RFP and Mrs. Penner was not successful in that bid.

-----
When the transitional period is taking place, how these positions will be placed or replaced, or where they will be moved for example, I cannot answer about Baker Lake directly, but there is a plan to move Baffin Divisional Board to Pangnirtung, then there will be invitations to these staff members to move with that office and the same policy will apply across the board.

mista tutu?
-----
To answer the question to Mr. Tootoo. As I mentioned earlier, the staff from the Housing Corporation offices, through all regions have been divided between the technical side, which is mainly the building inspectors and some purchasing people to go with the Public Works, and the programming side of the people which went to the Community Government, Housing, & Transportation departments.
*************** 
mista tutu:
-----
I would like to add that this happened in Cambridge Bay, and probably the best scenario there is that many people stay employed, in case of the Rankin, there have been a number of the vacancies, I believe only one or two persons went to the Public Works office, and in case of Iqaluit, I think we have only one person transferred from housing, and I'm not exactly familiar with how many program people will be going or went to the Community, Housing, & Transportation office.

If the LHO wants, or needs to get some work done, or needs some technical support or assistance, they have to go to the Department of Community Government, Housing, & Transportation, it will then go to Department of Public Works, Telecommunications, & Technical Services will then go to the community and fix the problem, or work on it, but then again, from what I understand from before, your department doesn't have any direct responsibility or tow the load the community to the LHOs'.

At this point in time, some of the duties as I understand them, they're being developed and we're using the existing policies at this time, but as I stated earlier in my opening comments... Article 24... we are reviewing Article 24 because there is no way around it;

we have to implement it especially with the creation of the Nunavut territory and again it's part of our...part of the constitution and this help and we'll be developing a policy as how best implement Article 24 and we'll be involving NTI and consulting with them, and we have to work with different organizations because, as we're developing the policy, we have to have a working relationship with those different organizations, both departments and Inuit organizations as well as federal departments.

So if we have an RFP that is 20 - 40% higher than the low bidder and then we throw BIP on there, and then we include Article 24, is there going to be cost down the road at some point that we may not be able to afford to do this in our contracting?

There is a major difference between a tender and a request for proposals.

Tenders are completely public, request for proposal is not.

The only thing which contracting procedures, according to the Financial Administration Manual are prohibiting is to disclose prices to the general public with a request for a proposal.

pijjutauvuq tamatumunnga atausiunngituinnariaqarmat tuksirautiliat ajjigiinngittuutaullutit ammalu saalaksaqtittijunnarnak akiinnatiguangajumik.

The reason for this is that you may receive more than one, or several proposals which are completely different and you are not able to award an request for proposal to a proponent strictly based on the price.

If we are going to put two positions in Baker Lake next year with Technical Services why doesn't the department identify a few Inuit graduates or people in existing positions, as has been done in the past they've transferred them to Rankin to take the technical training there and when the decentralization happens we have fully trained individuals, preferably Inuit, that can slide into the positions rather than wait.

I'll be glad to give you, there is no very simple answer to that question, but I'll be glad to give you a written response, if you want or a summary rent list scale and proportions between the subsidy and the full rent because individual cases vary quite a bit, slightly different community by community. Approximately 60% very roughly, 60% to 40%, when the 60% is paid by the tenant and 40% is approximately paid by the Government subsidy.

I have had a question for the longest time, although I approved it earlier the 60 million for the revolving fund, but as I was getting more information, I started seeing the 39 million, 807 thousand, and if that was to be approved, then what would the remaining amount up to 60 million be used for?

It is like this, the petroleum is purchased from wherever they purchase it then it is transported to the community and as the community sells the petroleum, the income is used to offset the cost of the purchase and it is just a see-sawing form, because whatever is used to purchase is paid back by the revenue from the sales.

Mr. Speaker I rise today to speak on the matter of staff housing, not only here in Iqaluit, but in the rest of our communities.
***************

I think we all agree that the employees of the Government of Nunavut deserve to be in adequate accommodations.

I am concerned that there seems to be multiple levels operating, especially here in Iqaluit.

-----
We understand from the Minister of Human Resources, that there's a staff housing policy in place that has been carried over from the GNWT and that there's an allocation committee for Regional staff housing and also an allocation committee for Headquarters staff which was set by the Office of Interim Commissioner prior to March 31st.

-----
Some of the new staff units here in Iqaluit have only been allocated by the OIC housing allocation committee to Headquarter staff and the GNWT staff have been allocated older staff housing units, such as white row units and the units in the high-rise have gone to the regional staff and they've been allocated by the GNWT allocation committee.

-----
I hope now after April 1st, there is only one standard and that all employees, whether their Headquarters or Regional Staff are being allocated housing based on their need for suitable, affordable, adequate housing.

-----
It is my understanding, that there's some staff, that are not in suitable housing, they and their families are not in housing suitable for them and they're waiting for the new units such as the Urbco Units up the hill to be allocated.

-----
I hope that these decisions can be made very quickly, so that this new housing can be occupied and we can have staff with the higher morale associated with having proper housing and being involved in a fair and equitable staff housing policy.

Since we're all new, I would like to remind everyone, that you as a Minister of Education, cannot say that you make this announcement as a Minister, you have to make those kinds of statements under Ministers' Statements.

Mr. Speaker, right now as I indicated there are two different approval mechanisms and I also believe I have indicated, that's why we're trying to co-ordinate a new staff housing policy and take into consideration all those factors.

-----
Mr. Speaker, there are two approval mechanisms in place, in my understanding we have staff housing for Government of Nunavut employees, period, and I don't understand why there needs to be two levels of allocations, I wonder if you can explain that.

Mr. Speaker, I believe I indicated that we inherited both mechanisms and both policies for allocations.

-----
One, and he recognized it in his statement as well, one from GNWT on the regional allocation for regional positions, and one at the Headquarters level, that was inherited from the Office of Interim Commissioner.
*************** 
mannaujumi ilanga piliriaq, tamanna qanuq kamagijunnaqpavu?
-----
So right now one of the issues, quite frankly, is how do you deal with that?
*************** 
katittiniarpavut taimainiaqpat, surlu, nalunaiqsiqqaugavit turangatitaujut angijuqqaqavimmu.
-----
Do you pull them together and if that were the case, for example, you have dedicated headquarters positions that are targeted for headquarter staffing.
*************** 
matuiniqqata manna aviksuqsimajuni iqqanaijaqtiit innutauppata pitaqarunirajarmata angijuqqakaviujunu illuit, taana akaungiliurutiqarajaqtuq angijuqqakavinu illuni nunavut gapuvamanginni. tamakkuangujut piliriaksait, nalunaiqsikaullunga, kamagijaugiaqaniraqtugu.
-----
So if you were to open it wide open right now and regional staff were to move into all of those units and there were no available units for incoming headquarters staff, that would jeopardise the staffing up of headquarters departments of the Government of the Nunavut.
*************** 
pijaksakanniumijuq, inuit qaujisimavallaingimmata, taannattauq kamagigiaqamigattigu, iqqanaijaqtigijavu taqqangatuinnaq illumiittut?

So those are the kinds of issues, as I have indicated, that have to be addressed.

-----
One other issue, quite frankly, the people probably haven't realized and I think that we have to address that as well, is what about our employees right now that are in public housing?
*************** 
pijunaqqat gavamakku illuqutinginnu, upinnarani atturniqaniarmijut, ajjiginginnautigasukkuttigu, qanuq kamagijunnarmangatigu kamagijarialit amma taanna unnuatuinnami pijarikjangimmat.
-----
Are they entitled to the Government of Nunavut staff housing as well, because that will have an impact, if we're trying to be consistent, how we treat all our employees then all of those issues have to be addressed and that's not a matter of doing something overnight.
***************

-----
Mr. Speaker, the Minister indicated that there is basically segregated housing, I'm wondering Mr. Speaker if he feels that it's fair as members came on staff with the GNWT prior to April 1st and are in certain accommodations, because that's all there was available at the time.
*************** 
taikaniksainariaqaqqat, illuqutiqaqtilluta inuqangittuni amma akiliqsupallailutigut.

Do they have to be stuck in those accommodations, while we have existing units that are sitting empty and I believe we're paying for them.

-----
If you took the whole inventory and someone that was not in adequate staff housing at this moment in time and put them into a unit that might be available up there, that does not change the inventory, you're just taking and moving from within, I'm just wondering if that's something the Department will be looking at.

At this point in time I don't know if we will get the ability to hold any offenders who have killed somebody or committed murder all that, that is a maximum security type of sentence, so all I am saying is that the committee is looking at the possibility of at least expanding what we have here in Iqaluit, or maybe in another community or in Iqaluit, but at least expanding the type of facility that we have now.

If we're going to be giving our money to the Ontario government, to the Alberta government, and to the government of the Northwest Territories, then we should seriously consider building one in the Nunavut area because of course there's country food, there's local employment, and so on. So I believe once this facility goes up, once the initial costs have been incurred - once the capital is expended, then the money would go to the Nunavut government.

-----
I support you fully in your idea of setting up preventative measures, but there are still going to be people who will have to be housed in those penitentiaries, and if we set up a facility here, then we'd be increasing the employment of the people, and more than one person has asked me if there is going to be a correctional facility built in their community. So we're just going to go ahead with that and the inmates, we do know that they're there for a good reason, but when you visit them, they feel so out of place down there in a southern penitentiary.

Once a person is in jail, they are just getting more angry for being put away for an offence they feel they did not commit, and if it's not so serious that a community could not deal with it, I think it could have stayed at the community level and be solved right there, and that healing process would have started.

What we're trying to do is to utilize the Inuit way which is that you try to correct a person from doing it again, and to integrate that person back into the community and to society, and to deal with the problem that caused him to start committing crimes in the first place and to start healing them.

They still show up in our budget because the money we would be using to run the program here instead, we are using to pay the GNWT to run them and then to set up to get people in place so they will be in place by the beginning of the new fiscal year.

Legal Services Board that runs the Legal Aid Clinics, three clinics with four offices in Nunavut, they are still functioning but we are still using the administration services of the Board in Yellowknife and Legal Registries which runs the Corporate Registries/Land Titles those kind of things. They have set up a separate office, that is a Nunavut Office, separate from the GNWT office, but still in Yellowknife, using some of the same staff and then we are making steps to move that office to Kugluktuk during the current fiscal year.

The total amount that we are spending is $2,400.000. That's actually, I am sorry, that is the Legal Services Board, which is the single largest one, and that is a little bit misleading because that is really including the cost of the clinics here and the costs paid to lawyers for services here.

Mr. Chairman, this is the area that deals with the correctional, in paying for the inmates that we send over to YCC and that area. Is that the amount included in the other O&M, in the 6.8 million.

Mr. Chairman I wonder if the amount allocated in the budget takes into consideration the fee that we get charged from the Government of the Northwest Territories only in that area.

If there were fewer inmates placed in the west or if we were able to establish alternative placements here, including camp placements some of that money could be used for that purpose and we will be working to do that.

What I was trying to get at was that I had heard that the budget amounts for the departments that, like the costs that were being charged by the GNWT for the service has been budgeted but the costs of travel and the travel for the staff and the time for the staff were not taken into consideration.

We can tell the teachers union, we can give the documents to the teachers union so they can be distributed, because of course if we write to every individual teacher, it's going to take too long and what I can do is give this to the Minister of Human Resources, so that the information could be distributed to the teachers.

I would like to update the Assembly on my attendance at the Western Premiers' Conference (WPC) in Drumheller, Alberta. First, I would like to thank the Honourable Ralph Klein, Premier of Alberta, and his officials for their kind hospitality and in welcoming my officials and I to the WPC.

During my private sessions with my colleagues and at the official sessions of the WPC, I raised the issue of highway and road connections from the rest of Canada to Nunavut. In conjunction with the issue of a National Transportation Strategy, there was acknowledgement and support by the Western Premiers for Nunavut's aspiration to physically join the nation through the development of a highway system.

I am also pleased to say that the WPC made a commitment on the following; "to work together to facilitate cross-border trading relationships and the commitment to encourage closer working relationships when dealing with trade-related matters, such as trade policy, agriculture, marine products, transportation, economic development, energy, and the environment, and to establish direct working relationships with their border-states, regional counterparts and circumpolar neighbours."

I think you heard, in the different Departments and also the Minister of Finances' statements, that from the recommendations, and because of the reduction in the capital budget, that the programs or capital projects that were put in the 5 year forecast have been deferred for this year only, except in areas where there is a safety issue, the contractual arrangements have already been signed and commitments were made to order material for construction.

Mr. Speaker our Nunavut fathers have had their pictures taken since the 1800's by people from around the world who travelled here by whalers and other ships and somewhere in the 1900's by dogteam.

A lot of pictures have been taken since that time in the Nunavut area and these artifacts are outside of Canada and I believe that they should by rights be here in Nunavut.

-----
I do know that there is a shortage of dollars and as a Nunavut Government, I would like to see a museum in Nunavut because a lot of people want to see more about our culture, our history and our clothing.
*************** 
takujumajugalammariummata amma saqqijaaqtuqaluajjaanani kuupanHaaganmut (Copenhagen) takujaqturiaqarutta qanuippalliasimanittinnik, iliqqusittinnik amma annuraattinnik.

There is a demand out there and it won't be very much if we have to go to Copenhagen to see our history, our culture and our clothing.
*************** 
kikkutuinnait nunavutmiutaunngittut unikkaagajummata inuqutitta nunavut iluani qanuippallianimininginnit.

Usually the people who are not from Nunavut are the ones that are telling our history about the people of Nunavut.

-----
I think it would be best if we had a museum here so that we could be the ones to tell the history and our people pay a lot of money to go to the museums in Copenhagen to see Inuit history and they are making money.
*************** 
tamarmik kiinaujait kuupanHiganmuuqarmata nunavutmuungingaaqtutik.
-----
All the money is going to Copenhagen instead of going up to the Nunavut Territory.

-----
With that in mind, Mr. Speaker, I would like to ask the Minister to tell us what he is doing to ensure that while people are spending money to see or learn about Inuit culture, are they spending that money to see it in Nunavut?

The reason I am asking this question, and I think I understand your response, but in the communities we have more chronic illness present and especially with babies that are getting sick.

So the nurses have to work around the clock in the health centres in the communities and once a young baby becomes ill, people become very concerned and they take their babies to the nursing station right away.
***************

Thank you Mr. Speaker.

Mr. Speaker, my understanding is that if a nurse chose to be in a community then it is up to her or him as the case may be.
*************** 
aanniasiuqti nunaliit asianut aullaarumaguni, taima katimajiit aaqqiiksuinasuarajaqtut.
-----
If the nurse chose to move to another community, then the Health Board would try to make that accommodation.
*************** 
kisianittauq, aulanirmut iliqqusiujarialiit amma nunaliit kinnguumagijangit maliktaugajaqtut.
-----
But, again, it depends on the operational requirements and the need in the community.

-----
The Health Board has in place a policy to allow for operational requirements and to make sure the standard of care is there on the absenteeism or when a nurse leaves to go somewhere else, or indeed, if the nurse is going to be replaced. If the nurse chose to stay in the community that would be up to her.

Mr. Speaker, a few days ago I posed a question to the Minister of Health and Social Services regarding a contract that we thought was awarded to study, to review I guess, some models that would be used with, I believe, the Health Board and the Department of Education.

Mr. Speaker whether it is a contract, a sole source contract, an employment contract, whatever, it is still a form of a contract, an agreement. If it wasn't a sole source contract, were there any invitations I guess, for other parties to have an opportunity to take on this study or review.

He has not been hired by my Department, he was hired by the Department of the Executive and is doing work on behalf of the Executive and one of the projects that this man is working on is the organizational chart for the Baffin Regional Health and Social Services Board, the Keewatin Health and Social Services Board, and the Kitikmeot Regional Health and Social Services Board on how the Department will be, how the Department of Health will be after the dissolution of the Boards after March 31, 2000.

I am not sure if the Minister is intentionally trying to avoid answering my question but it would seem to me that there would have to have been some kind of process in place for the selection of such an individual to do this study, or this work.

-----
People that are renting from the local housing authority cannot seem to save enough money for a down payment because of the high cost of rent. Even with the 15 thousand dollar down payment assistance program, it is barely enough.
*************** 
kisianili, taanna piliriangujuq ingirratiaqsimannginiqsauvuq upinnarani igluit akituniqsaummata nunavut iluani.

However, this program has been less successful here because of the higher cost of houses in Nunavut.

Mr. Speaker there has been a growing private market for housing especially in the regional centres, as more and more people build or purchase their own housing.

Let me try to express this.

It should be appropriately located in the community to be close for walking to stores, the nursing station, the community hall, the elders centre, and appropriately designed for elders who have difficulty with steps.

-----
We sometimes hear of people who have no choice but to live in homes with people who are not healthy, with people who may abuse or may be abusing them, because there is no alternative available as there is no where else for them to go and they do not have any money.

A person who drives a water truck, or works as a secretary for a Hamlet, or a store clerk cannot afford to pay 2,000 dollars a month for rent when their take home pay may not even be this high.

Low and Middle income earners should have our help, while high income earners have enough money for their own housing and there is no public interest served in giving public dollars to people who aren't in need of it, particularly, where there are so many other people who desperately need our help.

Mr. Speaker I am concerned that we are going to have fragmented service delivery through the policy with Community Government, Housing & Transportation responsible for parts of it, public works and telecommunications and technical services responsible for another part of it, Human Resources for another part of it and Finance yet another.

Mr. Speaker the direction of this government is to take more and more service delivery in house, into the government, in health, in education and in housing, but I would like to see more of the studies to show that we will really benefit from this direction.

I do not want to see us five or ten years down the road re-inventing the wheel and saying, "oops maybe we should've left some of these more independent mechanisms for service delivery outside the departments and have the departments focus more on good policy, ensuring good evaluation, and ensuring that we have dollars in place to do a good job".

Mr. Speaker I am concerned that this budget focuses on creating a solid future for Nunavut, which I applaud, but didn't pay enough attention to the past.

I want to work effectively with NTI, Land Claim Organizations and with the general public.

I think one of the things I would like to see in this department, since community populations are increasing, we need to have equitable capabilities in the communities for community services.

For example, if you took a census in June, people should know that not many people will be in the communities during that month, so if we are going to conduct a census we need to take that into consideration so that we can have truer figures when the census is taken at certain times of the year.

When there is a Nunavut wide census that will be the basis of funding by the Federal Government and we need to make them aware of that because those census figures for the communities are used to determine how much the hamlets are going to get in terms of funding from this Government.

We can't truly predict that and we don't know how much funding is going to be available, but I think that your department needs to be consulting with the communities to predict what they are going to need in the next five years.

In my community the Co-op purchased the past governments staff housing. So, there are some tenants in Co-op houses now residing, even though there are not many, but I think that has eased the local housing authority somewhat.

If we are going to give them additional responsibility we have been thinking that maybe the community should be looking at what they are going to change so that they can operate things at the local level more efficiently.

In order to support the communities more, when there are other people outside of the Hamlet Council that can actually work, we would like to utilize them and help them out.

-----
Even if we go by way of the Hamlet Council, if there was a private business to do that kind of job in the community we would use that private business rather than the Hamlet Council so we could give more support to the communities.

In regards to the Hamlet Councils and Co-ops, I just used those as an example.

-----
If there were other capable companies, and not all of the communities have private businesses, some of them only have Hamlet Councils and Housing Associations and Co-ops, however if there were any other capable private businesses we would utilize those private businesses.

For example, perhaps it would be cheaper if we could work for one year with the help of the Hamlet Council, because they do have heavy equipment to work on gravel.

Once we get more people in private business we could utilize those private businesses, whether it be snow removal or gravel equipment, if private businesses have equipment such as these, we would utilize them.

I could ask this under written questions, but we have to review all of these issues when we are dealing with social housing, because social housing has caused many challenges and hardships for people in the communities.

Although we would like to see more money allotted to this department for housing, at this time we must use our funds wisely without increasing the budget, although we will continue to try and increase the budget sometime in the future, but we could try and use the existing funds wisely.

In order to better deliver the programs to communities, as I mentioned earlier in response to Mr. Iqaqrialu and others, we would like to come up with a task force of some kind, however again the discussion at this time is between myself and the Minister of Finance trying to determine the Terms of Reference for that task force.

-----
What we are trying to do is build teams that can go into the communities and deal with the issues that a community Council faces. So, instead of having to wait for a person to come in, we are taking what were called community development officers in the Housing Corporation along with municipal officers out of what was known as MACA and we are going to cross train those individuals and draw on the strengths that they already have as community development officers.

For example, Housing was looking at financial records of the local housing authority, there is no reason why that same person can't provide assistance to the Hamlet Council on the Hamlet side of the books.

In other words instead of building a large bureaucracy where we have specialists that only deal with housing, only deal with transportation, only deal with local government issues, we are trying to pull together a team that will be able to deal with all of those issues.

Now, there is obviously a few special items and one of them is housing, where we are building the housing under the umbrella of the Nunavut Housing Corporation which is out of the Act that we inherited, that came over to Nunavut.

Yes, the department does have those three sections, Community Government, Housing & Transportation and as such has three Assistant Deputy Ministers, but as the Deputy Minister pointed out earlier there is going to be a lot more interaction amongst the sections and cross training and what not.

I think that is how we can utilize a lot more of our personnel by ensuring that when our staff, say our regional headquarters staff, go into communities, they are going in to do more than just one thing at a time, whether it is housing or helping with the Hamlet finances or other things.

-----
But, for the sake of having the ability to differentiate between Community Government, Housing & Transportation there has to be those three, but again, a lot more of working together between what was previously three departments, a lot more working together between the three, because they are under the same department now.

We are working with the original structure that grew out of Footprints II and as we put the team together we may, for example, consumer affairs, may fit somewhere better other than the Nunavut Housing Corporation.

These are just general comments from myself and I don't really require an answer.

-----
I know we inherited this budget from the OIC's office, and sitting on the Hamlet Council last year, we were asked by the various departments in the old government to give our input on the plan, so the Hamlet Council worked diligently giving their capital plan ideas to the last government hoping that some of it would be brought over into this government.
*************** 
takunattugit nunaliit gavamangit immaqa 1-pusanit sanirvaiviusimajugut kivallirmut.
-----
Going through Community Government I think we got 1% of the allocation in the Keewatin.
***************

-----
Housing we got 0% allocation in the Keewatin, this is Baker Lake I'm talking about.

Like I say, I know it is not the honourable...(inaudible comment)...but being on the Hamlet Council in Baker Lake for the last number of years, there should be more movement.
***************

I see from the Footprints ll document, that there are no ADM's in the Footprints ll document and I see three of them here.

-----
Two based in Rankin Inlet, no, one based in Rankin Inlet and one based in Arviat, and I think I have never seen, the only time I have ever seen the ADM of Transportation come in to meet with the Hamlet Council was when there was a big meeting going on in Baker Lake that I don't want to get into about, and then they show up.

I am hoping that the Minister has a detailed work plan in place for his Assistant Deputy Ministers to travel around and take some workload off of the very capable Deputy Minister.
***************

I think we will agree that we should see the ADM's more in our communities all over Nunavut.

*************** 
iglulirinirmuungajumik, amma uqaalaviuqattalauqtunga, amma sanajaksalirijikkut piliriarigiaqaqtaminik pilirillutik.
-----
The Housing part of this, and I was phoned by a few people, and Public Works and Services are doing all of the technical work.
***************

-----
To me that, I don't think that is a very good idea.

-----
I know that it has been set up that way, and I am sure Public Works and Housing had really no say in it before you got it, but I think it is something that should be looked at.
*************** 
sanajaksalirijisi taimailiuqtikatsiuk amma iglulirijirjupakkut piliriamik piliriaqaqtutik.
-----
You have Public Works doing the technical work, and Housing Corporation delivering the program and the work.
***************

-----
I can see conflicts there.

-----
If the technical people were with the Housing Corporation, I think, in my opinion, dealing with the Housing Corporation as a Hamlet Councillor, and as a businessman, that the Housing Corporation should have their own technical people.

Another item. A transportation strategy.

-----
Are we even looking at developing a transportation strategy in regards to Nunavut?
*************** 
qaujimajunga parnaisimalauqtugut ualinirmut turaangajunit, aturiarjualiurutiksanit.

I know we had a transportation strategy that reflected the old west and they were to build highways, build highways build highways.
***************

-----
I didn't see us really over here developing a core transportation strategy that reflected all the communities from the middle to the larger ones.
***************

-----
NavCanada fees.
***************

-----
NavCanada is directly affecting all of us in Nunavut and I think there should be an escape clause for communities in Nunavut because most people down south don't have to deal with the price of bread, milk, eggs, and stuff like that.
*************** 
uvagulli isumaaluutigigiaqarattigu amma tuaviqtumik akitturiarujjauvaktuta amma ukaunngiliuqtauvugut upinnarani nunalinnik qaniksangittugu.
-----
We do, and all of a sudden, we get hit with, we are penalized because of our isolation with NavCanada fees.
***************

-----
We know that it is a not for profit organization.
***************

So when their costs increase, costs increase to the consumers.

-----
As a Government, and like I say, we did look at NavCanada, we did appeal to them but I don't think those people down there realize that we don't have a road system or rail system in place to deal with what we have to deal with here. The food mail subsidy was good.
*************** 
titiqqaniarvikkut nikiit usijaujjutiqaqpalaurningit naammakpalauqsimavut.
-----
It really helped by bring down the price of apples, and oranges and bread and eggs and stuff like that.
*************** 
niqiik ajjigiinngittut akikilligiaqpamaurmata.
-----
I think NavCanada adds three to five to seven percent on to the cost of commercial items.
***************

-----
I don't care, you know, about the price of a chocolate bar or a bag of chips or a bottle of pop but when it comes to perishable items, that, up here, we do not get a break on because of the high freight rates and the demographics we live in. I think NavCanada should be aware of the situation of what it costs to buy an apple or an orange or a litre of milk or a loaf of bread.

When we were in Igloolik, the Minister made a statement saying there was going to be a doctor based in Igloolik as soon as accommodations were available, and he stated that name of a particular doctor.

Mr. Speaker, when I asked him what the status was, apparently he misunderstood my question.

-----
In response to the question by the member on the doctor for Igloolik, when I was in Igloolik with the member about two weeks ago, the Mayor had indicated that the doctor was going into Igloolik, of which I was aware, because I had spoken to the doctor.
***************

The intention of the doctor was to move to Igloolik.

I was told that I would have to make a request to God and pray that the ice would melt a lot sooner than it actually did.

For that reason, Mr. Speaker, if this is not going to change, if cargo shipments still arrive late in the season, if this doesn't change it will not resolve anything unless the season starts warming up a lot earlier.

It has to be kept in mind that the airports in Nunavut, especially two of them, require extensions and if we are looking at the airports we will have to look at the Iqaluit airport. I know there has to be some upgrading of the airport ;

I know the Premier said he is looking into it, are they looking into dialogue not just with the case itself but also with other plans for even having people there to observe, to gather information so depending on the outcome of the case, we have a base to go from instead of starting from scratch at that time?

Yes, I do want to give a proper answer but whenever a case is before the courts we can never really make the information known because we cannot say, we cannot tell the court how it conducts it's business.

Well at this point, yes, we want to improve the way we deal with the communities and at the same time we want to make sure we have a plan that will work, rather than reacting to let's say one community, we will react to communities that are having a problem.

At this point it would be too soon to say we have a policy on how to deal with the communities that are having problems, because in developing those policies, we want to make sure that the Members as well as the communities have a role in developing those policies to ensure that the communities will know what to do if they start getting into some problems, whether it's financial or otherwise .

There will eventually be a government server in every community, there will be 1 or 2 staff from the IT Department in every community and we're looking at one of the avenues for better monitoring and evaluation being able to put electronically on the system community by-laws, community financial information, so we can share information back and forth and we can get the early red flags before they become a real problem and were responding after the fact.

That is one of the avenues being looked at, but that's the time line on that, I can't tell you today it's going to be 2 months, 3 months or 6 months, we're meeting with the IT people, we've given them an idea where services are needed in the early process, because we got growth communities where we put in the decentralize positions into.

But that's one avenue that's being explored, again we have to get current agreement from the Hamlets that they are willing to put all of the information into the system so that we could be reviewing it on a fairly regular basis rather than picking up on inspections or picking it up to ask them to mail a document specifically.

We do have some other options that we will be looking at, in my briefing with my counterpart in Municipal and Community Affairs, they are looking at enhancing the system and they are sharing some of the information, but it's to be preventive and proactive, in other words to identify work with the communities in positive way, to try to eliminate the problems as they occur and don't make it very difficult for the community to get back on it's feet.

Yes I'm a little confused I guess, if the Minister indicated that they want to consult with the communities in issues and concerns regarding what they have in their communities was not the goal conference that was sponsored, I believe by the Department of Community Government, Housing and Transportation, was that not for the purpose of them being able to express their issues and concerns, so I'm just wondering why is the Minister waiting to consult them to hear their issues, concerns.

In respect to the issue that Jack was alluding to they are true, it's only when the community gets visited and inspected that the only time that they get a true idea what the community needs are, but perhaps if I ask this question it would be better because you're dealing with transportation and housing as well as community government.

We're trying to give them more of a mandate to deal with the issues such as that I hear you express Mr. Iqaqrialu, because if we were to send an official to inspect the government, they would only deal with the Municipality or with the Hamlet, but we would like to develop that when we are dealing with all three of these issues and the one department that if there is going to be a visitation to one community that official would be able to deal with all three issues within the department.

I don't have a whole lot of questions but I find it good to hear those kind of comments, but in these main estimates or in respect to the paper work my communities five year plan that were dealt with by the GNWT and now with the Nunavut Government, when they were given to the Nunavut Government I want to show you something in one of the report.

When our community plans for five year Capital plan, we know when we saw the amounts have been changed from when these were transferred to Nunavut Government, and I'm not too pleased with the way that was done, but I know that we have to be physically responsible, but if we are to do that, if we are to look at a Capital Plan whether these can be deferred till next year or to see a larger amount allotted for the next year that could be done, than our Capital plans for the year, I would not have too many regrets about.

This year if these were to be deferred until next year, because it could be built or constructed in the next year if it were done that way, again bearing in mind fiscal reality we have to look at the capital plans I think that would help the problem.

If we are to proceed smoothly, if we are to have more benefits for the community those of us from Nunavut I know we're going to have to proceed with that. But I think it's clear that, because of the limited funding we cannot get everything on our wish list because we have agreed for this first year that we need a balanced budget because that's been our goal all along.

The Nunavut government shouldn't be looked at as an opposition but should be in co-operation between the two and I think that the government could run a lot smoother, if we work on the plans together or if there's going to be any projects changed or anything different than I think that the government should take the initiative and talk to the Municipalities, so that they'll know exactly why the proposed projects were taken out of the 5 year capital plan or something different done.

If a lot more of these 70%'s are given out to homeowners, doesn't that restrict the amount of housing that we can put on the open market, and say if 40% of the purchase price of a house was given to residents of Nunavut that have been here for 5 - 10 years, whatever the criteria, wouldn't that stimulate twice as much, or wouldn't that stimulate more housing for people in need?

I think it is a good program my experience with community empowerment while I sat on the Hamlet Council for five or six years was, yes it gave more decision making to the Municipalities and that is a step in the right direction.

We have in Baker Lake, 120 full time employees, and one non-aboriginal employee, so through the training programs that MACA provided to that community, the community of Baker Lake has really, really taken upon itself to train local people to fill all the positions.

Getting back to housing again, there is one issue that was brought up in my community and I am sure every community in Nunavut has to deal with it every day, is the serious state, and I know it is your issue but also probably a couple of other departments issue, is the serious state of elders' housing, in a lot of the Keewatin communities if not Nunavut communities.

We talk about public housing and the shortage of it, we are almost at the point now where we are at elder neglect in regards to houses.

-----
We will take the issue of elders' houses as advice, but I agree that the communities should have a role in determining elders' facilities. The Government of NWT went into this program without necessarily asking the communities, which communities might want elders houses, and as a result I know of one community where the elders four-plex was not necessarily a welcome thing whereas it is in others.

-----
One of the things in Nunavut that there has been an attempt to break down stove piping, where department A has all technical staff, department B has all technical staff, department C has all the same type of positions, all working to provide service to a client or a specific community.

-----
What we are looking at trying to do is to maximize efficiency, to recognize that if we look at sharing some of that responsibility, and it is critical that we find the mechanism in doing that, that the clients, the people of Nunavut that we serve are getting a high level of service, easily with less red tape.

-----
So when I talk stove piping, rather that within the department, even if we just look at this department, rather than building three different branches, which you see on the org chart, hopefully by the time the dust settles, those, even though there would still be responsibility for housing, responsibility for transportation, responsibility for community government, there will be a melding of those into one department recognising that we would still have the independent Nunavut Housing Corporation to manage and deal with the contracts and the dollars that come from CMHC.

To me looking at it having been involved with the government and always also in the past looking at it from outside no matter where I lived there's always been a cry of not having the resources for the man power for the staff at the regional level as those are the people that are doing the hands on delivery of the programs and services of the departments.

Thank you Mr. Chairman. I cannot really say exactly why it happened this way, but I can say that at the start up of the new government of Nunavut, there is a need to really set up well in the Headquarter in order to ensure that the operation of the government flows through to the Regions.

Mr. Chairman is the Minister stating that this is more of one time cost that going to disappear over time or some of these positions that are being staffed at the headquarters level or are they just short term positions or are they going to be positions needed to be there for the long haul and as far as the regional functions go, looking at this budget is for the whole year and that's including the complete regional function for the department or is it just a partial I guess that's my next question.

Regarding the assistant deputy ministers, for example, when Glenn McLean asked the question yesterday whether they would be travelling to the communities, our Assistant Deputy Ministers, we have instructed them to make more community visits and if they undertake that, our assistant deputy minister would be based out of Rankin Inlet.

At this time the Nunavut government with the model of decentralization, it's clear now that with the telephones and the information highway with that kind of technology you can communicate wherever you are and you can have an office wherever you have a connection and again we're looking at lessening the costs when we're looking at those options.

I guess that we touched on and mentioned a position here that is a headquarters position that is now being moved to Rankin because it has been deemed cheaper to do so.

-----
Mr. Chairman. Yes there were ERS services operating at the airport and they were part of the GNWT deficit recovery, I guess.
*************** 
tamanna nuqqaqtitaummat aivagutaulauqsimajuq maanimiutarnut pitaqainnaqujatsutik, ilainnaraluangiunniit nunavut gavamataarasuarniinnangani, qaujimajugatta nunavutmi gavamataatuarutta, gavamaqarvitsauninganut niruaqtaumagiijummat taitsumani, iqaluit gavamaqarvitsauninga, tuavirnaqtuliriutiit utingngivviqalaungngittut.
-----
They were eliminated there was strong argument on this side of the division to keep those there, or at least just parts of them until Nunavut came along, because we knew that as soon as Nunavut came along, because the capital vote had already been taken, Iqaluit would be the capital, and there would be a requirement to return them.
*************** 
alluriaqattanikkut pivallianiaqtavut pitatsipallialugu gavamaqarviuningatigut aturlugit kiinaujait pijauqattaniaqtut ingirrajuulirijikkunnik kanatami.
-----
What we are looking at is bringing them on in a phased approach and offset as much of the capital outlay with funding from Transport Canada.
***************

-----
They haven't given us sufficient funding.
***************

Why did the GNWT give us very little?

There was one community that came over and told us that we were supposed to give them some money and it was deferred for another year.
***************

So they were proposing to do whatever project they wanted to do this year and then get reimbursed the following year.

-----
If the community wants to take the initiative and go ahead with the project they can do so on the understanding that they will be reimbursed the following year. It is only 2 thousand we are talking about here and I can only tell the member that once these are approved we can always shuffle things around a little.

-----
So, Mr. Speaker, I reiterate, that our education system has to ensure students leave our school system with a stronger sense of Inuit identity and respect for others. This is what the Inuuqatigiit Curriculum is standing on.

But, Mr. Speaker, I would like to state in the Legislative Assembly, this is just an example that I will use, Mr. Speaker, I heard that during one of the Ministers' statements, the Minister of Public Works, when she was referring to something, she stated she would respond to the bad gas experienced by Gjoa Haven, which is in my constituency.

With respect to that issue Mr. Speaker, I want to state that within this Legislative Assembly, that the Inuit of Nunavut, their knowledge, their culture, their values and customs, we stated that they were to be our base.

I'm not referring to the issue that we dealt with in last 3 days, but in general sense and I'm not talking about the time frames of with in a week or 2 weeks or a month, but I'm asking the Premier, if you would make a commitment review the practice that we used on contracts and the reason that I bring this forward is that I believe that, there are number of people communities, contractors, construction associations do have some concerns as to fairness to make sure, so that everybody, every contractor be it small or large have an opportunity to bid on contracts and services .

We seem to be running around last couple of years, who's responsible or where does a Municipality go to access funding to clean up all these old Federal Government dumps and contaminated soil and drums and fuel spills and stuff like that, because I know that Territorial Government or the Nunavut Government is not directly responsible.

No. We will not produce more finances but with regard to the community of Kimmirut, their priorities and their allotted capital plan for this year are not the same;
*************** 
qujannamiik mista.
-----
therefore, the budget if its going to be moved to another project in respect to what the residents of Kimmirut want, if we did agree to that, the Financial Management Board and Cabinet can attempt to do so because I cannot do it alone. I alone, cannot change the priority and the capital allotted for that year because it's already approved .As I stated before the priority that Kimmirut wants, again I'm using an example, there is a health related issue.
*************** 
issivautaq.
-----
The residents of Kimmirut feel they can wait another year for a certain project and they want to make another project their priority, but at this time that's not finalized because they have not reached agreement with the Health and Social Services Department. If we were to agree I would have to go to the Financial Management Board and state that we would like to move the capital plan from one to another.

The municipality went to the bank, borrowed money to develop that, and I had a letter of commitment in a form of a contract for the government's share this year to offset the difference in the cost between what an average lot cost, for development that is, and what these lots, because they were utilidor lots cost.

What they tried to do was equalize the payments that individuals would make to lease a lot within the Territories and beyond that the policy allowed for the Minister of Community Affairs to pay the difference between what the average lot was in the territories versus what the lots cost.

The Minister's right that we haven't had an opportunity to review that policy, but under the existing policy of the GNWT, any community could have looked at utilidor services and over the years that I've been with the government is this region and other communities, Cape Dorset being one of them, did look at buried pipe utilidor services but you have to take into consideration the distance from the water point to the cost of buried pipe and in those smaller communities the price ruled out going with buried pipe or utilidor type services.

Mr. Chairman, when a community has a cost and if they want to go ahead with their own funding so that it can go ahead the following year or if they have surplus funds and they want to start it in a given year even though we would pay for it if it wasn't started this year, but if the Hamlet wanted to start it on their own we can do it so that we pay them the following year.

-----
There are a few areas that we have to look at individually and some of this million dollars would be used where there has been a cut, to bring it back to a level where we are properly maintaining the unit, because if we don't maintain the units then the costs become even greater because the capital costs of repairing and replacing them is more than putting good maintenance into them.

This years' allotment through the GNWT, through an agreement the 250 thousand amount was agreed to by the GNWT, we had an agreement with the GNWT to construct the community break water, that was the amount agreed to but in between the transition from the GNWT to the Government of Nunavut, the figure was broken down to 50 thousand and that caused concerns and problems.

So it's seems like we've been misled maybe the letter has misled us, I don't think it was an intentional misleading statement but if we looked at the first part which the government of Nunavut has given to them.

-----
Mr. Chairman, there were several communities that were in the same area as Clyde River, where in the five year plan there were projects that were planned for either docks or access roads, and those are put into the annual plan and each year there is a contribution agreement that is entered into, or a project agreement for specific dollars to flow that year.

-----
When we applied the criteria that we had to, in doing the budget, the 250 thousand dollars for this year, because there wasn't a signed contract in place, although there was this five year plan where they were hoping if they could identify the dollars that over the next five years they would build this wharf.
*************** 
taanna, surlu asingititun nunaliujuit, atiliutaulauqsimangimman.

That, like in other communities, hadn't been signed off.

-----
What this money is simply doing is finishing off work that was started in the contract year last year and so in the initial budget it looked like 50 thousand needed to finish it off.
*************** 
iqqanaijasataqakaniqtuq amma 125 tausan arraaguup aippaanuqtuit, suli 44 sin kiinaujait.

There is actually more work to be done and there is 125 thousand that came as carry-over, which again is only the 44 cent dollars.
*************** 
marruatisimajariaqalauqtuit taakkua amisuuniujuit kisiani pilauqtugut kisiani, agguqtauninginnut piqutigijaujuit amma akiliksaujuit, 44 siatmit.

So there should have been twice that amount but we only got, through the division of assets and liabilities, 44 cent dollars.

So that is where that amount comes from. We need to, with not only Clyde River, but with a number of the communities, look at those type of projects and find a mechanism to have a clear way of dealing with them so that there is some longer term commitment, so that the projects do get finished.

This seems natural given the sensitivity and importance of some of these issues, however, leadership is needed and Nunavummiut need to be involved, as some of these early decisions will have a large impact on how we all use, promote and preserve the Inuktitut language in Nunavut.

Members were advised that the department of Culture, Language, Elders & Youth now has responsibility for the Status of Women and that the funding which has been budgeted under EIA has been transferred to Culture, Language, Elders & Youth for this function, including 0.6 PY and 550 thousand dollars for grants and contributions.

Members noted that in Footprints, this position was called an equality advisor under the department of the Executive and Intergovernmental Affairs and asked for an explanation of why this had been transferred from EIA to Culture, Language, Elders & Youth and why Culture, Language, Elders & Youth has now hired a senior advisor on women's issues instead of an equality advisor as recommended in Footprints.

-----
In the mean time we still have to deal with it, we have problems with residents not able to buy guns, for example if a hunter were to lose his gun and he's not registered, he doesn't have certification, he may not be able to get another gun because of that.
***************

As a result he can't hunt, he can't bring food home.

So given that fact we still have to deal in some way that there has to be some sort of certification, registration being done.

My question is will the Minister look at having his individuals that work in wildlife, if they can assist in the paper work, at least in the mean time we have something in place to assist the local hunters.

For example some programs can be made available in Nunavut or our partners in Northwest Territories for example Fort Smith, but other programs that are not available will have to be taken in the South or else where, so this really depends on the program that has been requested.

For the Department of Culture, Language and Elders and Youth while we are doing his department I'm sure a few more comments will come up, but first of all, I would like to say while we are dealing with the department I know that the introduction is very important because it seems like they're talking about elders in your introduction and artifacts.

Such as teaching Inuktitut language and culture, I have worked on it for seven years and I know how it goes I'm quite experienced in this issue where elders and youth work together.
***************

I realize that once elders and youth got together I realized that this was very important.

I feel that I'm looking at the amount of budget 6 million, I know it's inadequate for the whole of Nunavut.

In order to get good use however, there is I know that I have worked with the students during the summer time trying to teach them cultural issues such as taking them out on the land during the summer and teaching them culture and tradition of Inuit.
***************

Letting them tell stories and legends and we have been documenting the oral legends then that's when I realized this issue is very, very, important to us perhaps you could focus you're work on these issue too.
***************

I feel that if we could include all these issues within Nunavut Government.

There should also be English only instruction in the schools because it speeds up the learning process of the students being taught in one language only of instruction and I'm very glad the Minister of Education is here to hear my remarks and I'm sure that we'll be working on it sometime in the future.

Culture, Language, Elders & Youth, when we are dealing with culture, younger people have to grab that knowledge, I think that should be the goal of Culture, Language, Elders & Youth.

If you are going to be raising the funding, because our goal is to strengthen our language and our culture, if we are trying to have our traditional language promoted, 86 thousand dollars is very limited funds.

I hope to make myself very clear with my statements, there has been various studies done by Scientists using the present technology and there has been a lot of studies done and only time that they come up here the Scientist come up here when it's warming up outside like in the spring and they do studies on the environment and the weather.

Because they only come into spring they never get the true picture or what happens out there with the environment the land and so on the Inuit have lost the knowledge about the environment, the weather and the land and everything.

Thank you Chairperson, my understanding is that Cabinet directed Culture, Language, Elders & Youth this morning to review the contributions and grants policy and return to cabinet by June 30th so with that direction from cabinet Culture, Language, Elders & Youth will immediately begin and in fact it already has gone to review it's entire grants at 1.8 million and rearrange them to fit the needs of Nunavut that will probably include the youth/elders, language issues and the works.

qimirruarunnakannilauqtillungit titirarsimajut, uqaqatiqalauqtunga maligalirijinit, pijariiqsimaliqpuq kamagijarialik aqqiijjut.
-----
Having now had the opportunity to review the written record, and after consultation with legal counsel, I am prepared to issue a full ruling.
*************** 
tanna kamagijariali apiqqutiqaqtuq maligaqtigut angirutausimajuq.
-----
The issue in question here is the sub judice convention.
*************** 
iqqaitigiarumallugi maligaliuqtiit, tanna angirutausimajuq takussauvuq tukisitittiarumallugi ma&igaliuqtit uqausiqaqunnagit, apiriqunnagit uvvalunnit uqausiqaqunnagit atturniqallarittumit uvalunnit takujaugunnaqtumi kajungiqsaigajaqtumi iqqaqtuilirijinit.
-----
To remind Members, this convention exists in order to ensure that legislators refrain from engaging in discussions, posing questions or making statements that directly interfere with, or which could be seen as attempting to influence the working of the Courts.
*************** 
kisianittau, tanna angirutausimajuq ajjigiigiaqaqpuq;
-----
However, the application of this convention must be balanced;
*************** 
iqqaqtulirijikkut atuqtaunianngimmata, tavvasainnarlu maligaliuqtiit maliugaliurvimmi atuttiarunnaqullugi pijunnautingani uqarumajangani uqarunnarlutik.
-----
so as to ensure that the workings of the courts are not interfered with, while at the same time allowing Members of the Legislative Assembly to exercise their right to freedom of speech.
*************** 
kamagijariaqaqtunit attuiniqallarittunit kinatuinnarmi pirajassimajuni, angirutausimajuq utullarinniaqquq.
-----
In matters that directly affect specific individuals in criminal cases, the convention is strictly applied.
*************** 
asinginni pirajassimajuni, tukilialuanngittunit takussaujuqaqquq maligaliuqtinut takussautittiniarluti inuit tusaumagunnaqtanginnut.
-----
In other types of cases, more leeway exists for Members to inquire into matters of public interest.
***************

-----
In short, Members may ask questions of a general nature about the Government's policy with respect to this case, so long as they are not formulated in such a fashion as to breach the governing principle of the convention that the question or the answer must not constitute improper interference.
*************** 
iqqaitigiarumavakka maligaliuqtiit, kisianittau ministaujuit kiugumaniaqtusaulutik tassuminga kamagijarialimmi, kiugumanginniqarunnatiaqquq, ammalu taimaimmat qanuittutuinnarmu apiqqusimu.
-----
I would remind Members, however, that while Ministers may choose to answer questions on this issue, they are perfectly entitled to decline to answer, as indeed they are with any question.

As I look at the policy, I believe that if someone doesn't own their own home, if someone isn't already in their own home, they're eligible for staff housing according to the policy.

If that isn't the case I would like to ask the Minister if he could provide, it doesn't have to be right now but at some future point in the near future, as to what situations an individual would not be eligible for staff housing outside of this policy.

Mr. Speaker, I guess that I am really concerned that employees of the government that live in Iqaluit are either forced to live in public housing or are currently in staff units that may not be the most desirable. We have all seen the mass production of new units in the community and, Mr. Speaker, I am just wondering, I don't think that it is fair for employees, whether they are from Iqaluit, or have recently moved here, that they have to sit back and live in unfavourable conditions while these new units are sitting there and only being offered to individuals that may be coming from outside the Territory.

Mr. Speaker, I believe that was more a statement than a question, but I would say that is why we are trying to review the existing policies and streamline it, co-ordinate it, so there is some consistency and some fairness for the treatment of all our employees in respect of the allocation of staff housing.

She was very pleased to go to Igloolik, and indeed, the Hamlet, the Mayor are welcoming her, when I toured the health facilities in Igloolik they were making arrangements for a room so that they could have a clinic there for the doctor to use when she moved to Igloolik.

The problem here Mr. Speaker, is that the Health Board has given public perception to the people of Igloolik that there is an expectation on behalf of the people of Igloolik, and indeed Hall Beach, possibly Arctic Bay, Nanisivik, where the doctor would be able to service those communities, that she was going there and now the Health Board has decided that maybe because of the operational requirements that she should go to another community.

In the following weeks, I was with the Minister in Igloolik, with the Honourable member in Igloolik, and he stated during a meeting at the community hall that the residents, there were quite a few of the public who came to the meeting, the Minister stated that the people of Igloolik would get a doctor in the spring.

On the rate increase, Mr. Speaker, based on our new community rate, basis for power corporation, based on the community rate applications that have been brought forward, there will be an increase in the rate charge per kilowatt hour in Clyde River for the development and the construction of this new plant, as there is in every other community.

That figure is anywhere between 30 - 40% increase and again, we have to remember that we have the Public Utilities Board, which would bring the concern forward to look at how you would phase in that type of increase.

In respect to the electrical increase of 30 - 40% , that to me is a very big concern and to the residents of Clyde River, particularly for the reasons that only 28% of all our community are employed full time, 71% of the residents do not have any employment and this is going to have a big effect on the residents of our community.

Mr. Speaker, I think, for the record Mr. Speaker, I should make it clear that the current subsidy programs that are in place with the power corporation such as social housing and the Territorial Power Support Program are not expected to change and will shield most households, indeed from many type of increases that would come from the rate increase.

I know that if it is going to effect the commercial buildings such as the government offices, according to what I have heard from the Hamlet Council, I know that the Hamlet Council is in a deficit stages and if we look at the new fiscal year, if we increase the rate it will increase by 50 thousand dollars.

A most compelling issue for the Members of the Standing Committee, is the need for Inuit nurses in Nunavut.

To the Members, the heavy workload on a few community nurses, particularly where the full complement of nurses are not available [vacancy rates range from 22 to 42%] is more than a concern.

It is a crisis in the communities.

-----
The lack of Inuit nurses also means that Inuit cannot receive health care in their own language, opportunities for health promotion and prevention are missed, Inuit traditional knowledge cannot be fully incorporated into our health delivery system and a lack of stability in many communities.

As noted above in our meetings with Education, Standing Committee Members believe that Nunavut students must be encouraged to move into the areas in which there are jobs - there are several hundred nursing and health related positions, all of which are well-paid professional positions in all of our communities.

The Standing Committee also encouraged the Minister to travel to Ottawa to try to obtain more funding for our health care system and to invite federal officials to the North to see for themselves, the impact on our communities, of too few health dollars and too few nurses and doctors.

And other things I would like to bring up is, over the years, we all complain about health care and the lack of it and social workers things like that, but the biggest more biggest issues that come up in my community and it's probably a tragedy is the early detection of cancer.

There's no way that the any of the cancer affect especially my community can be detected early enough that we can save these individuals and there's quite a few tragedies in the last 5 or 6 years in my community where it was detected too late.

-----
I'm not blaming this on health care professional, when it gets to a certain situation where it's terminal and can't be prevented than it's just agonizing, so I'm sure the minister will be trying to work around that situation, where you know ,cancers various of forms of lung cancer and other cancers can be detected earlier and treated.

In my election campaign when I went door to door and talking with the various people in my community, there was a genuine concern there that there's not enough traditional knowledge and older Inuit people being used for family counselling, suicide prevention, and just all around counselling, because in most communities there's a government building or a nursing station people that are in just stress and have to go to a public building and make appointments to see people.

And if the plan isn't repatriate these dollars for health care facilities, where's the money going to come from I certainly hope it's not going to come from the decentralization budgets that were negotiated couple of years ago.

Another concern, comment is the cost of prescription drugs in Nunavut I think it's three times national average, I could be incorrect there, but that's a price I got and availability of them, I know in my community I was called by a health care professional saying that there's a shortage of pharmaceutical drugs for the community.

First of all I'll just touch base on some of them, Mr. Chairperson the member have talked about cancer and indeed we all know the concerns with cancer scenes, the cancer on the rise or increase in Nunavut.

Mr. Chairperson, Mr. O'Brien brings up a couple of very important and indeed controversial areas over that last several years, and indeed in this house over the last couple of weeks and how to touch base on them and hopefully provide an update.

-----
I've only been in the department of health as minister as everyone knows as April 1st officially and the first things that I requested to the department was to get a current and applicable recruitment and retention program in place with the department of health for Nunavut.
*************** 
uqausiqaqqaugatta tavvani katimavimmi amigaqsaniqput annianirmi qaujimajummarinni taimainginnangittuq nunavummut.

As we've discussed in this House before the shortage of medical professionals is not a unique to Nunavut.

Indeed it's pandemic in Canada, indeed in North America, we see cases of other jurisdiction in Canada hiring nurses in Ontario and hiring out nurses in British Columbia indeed the States, United States come into Canada to hire nurses.

-----
As I've mention before 2 weeks ago, 3 weeks ago Mike Harris and the Premier of Ontario announced the additional 250 million re-basing of the health budget in Ontario to hiring of 10 thousand nurses, so were competing against other jurisdictions for a small highly qualified and trained medical professionals.

-----
As a department we are working on our recruitment and retention program for our nursing staff and I want to make it clear in this formal today that we are acutely aware of the dedication and the long hours of worked being put in by our nurses especially in the smaller centres where there they only have staff on the ground.

I, as a minister, will do what I can with in the department, with in the existing budgets, in co-operation with Mr. Ng , Minister of Finance to help the in some ways of recruiting and retaining those staff members.

So I don't have the plan in from of me right now, something that were working on and hopefully we'll be able to bring it forward in the fall to Standing Committee on Health of this house and discuss it with at that time and make some announcement.

On the housing policy over the last couple of days in this house Mr. Ng has spoken to the housing policy that is in the place and indeed we want to look at a policy that their for all staff and look at the rates and so on.

We realize that after the government of Northwest Territory sold off all staff house units in the communities, a lot of private entrepreneurs have taken control of those houses indeed some the rents being charged right now reflect that.

-----
I think everyone is confident of that reality and one of the things we want to try to do is to look at how we can, make the housing situation for medical professionals in my department and also for the government employees at large, better and more conducive for those working with the government of Nunavut .

-----
I guess I should also add that when I was in Igloolik we do have some NCC units on the ground maybe we can access for some of these medical professionals in the short term but we do need to come up with the comprehensive program which would be included in the recruitment and retention program for the medical professionals at the local level.

Over the several days as Minister of Health and when you're trying to answer questions on operational issues, the operational issues like control of the staffing of local at the regional, at the community level, general operating programs and services are carried out by the three regional Health and Social Services Boards.

As the Minister of Health I have to go then to the Health Board, and say was the status or what is the situation in this community and then let the Health Board staff up in positions there.

The Minister of Health has delegated the operational issues of the day for health to our three regional health boards and the department oversees the policy and direction and something that was done by the board for example that circumvented policy then we would not allow it and step in.

Our concern would be is indeed the people of Sanikiluaq sometimes they had been going into the Baffin Region facility, other times they had been going to the facility in Manitoba and right now in the community of Sanikiluaq is a part of the Keewatin Region for health care services.

If we could get the mothers to stop putting tang in bottles and so on, using kool aid, and to look at chocolates and sweets and so on that is causing this major problem that we have with tooth decay, we wouldn't get to the point where we are having to do major extractions.

For example, if a child at a very early age, and we know that when teeth are coming in that there is a sequence that teeth come in, and if they are taken out, if the child loses their first teeth then there is a major problem, because the teeth following the teeth that have been abnormally extracted because of decay, usually come in crooked, in the wrong place and so on.

-----
I think the key here, Mr. Chairperson, is to look at the preventative side to make sure that teeth aren't decaying, that children have a chance to go forward with a full set of teeth, not to have to worry about decay because at that early age of course they have no control over what we are giving them.

You are correct that they are using the hotel, and indeed later this month I will be visiting the Larga Home in Ottawa, there is a proposal by Larga Group through Nunasi Corporation to use that facility for unilingual people where they would have interpreters around the clock and have Inuit foods available and so on.

That is not acceptable and we agree as a department and as residents of Nunavut, as the Minister of the Department of Health that if that is the case that an elderly person is left behind at the airport or there are no translators and no one to show them where to go then it is not acceptable.

On this situation regarding trimethane as introduced by the member from Arviat, Inuit Qaujimajatuqangit, on looking at toxic substances and so on has incorporated like we are doing right how with other departments for example under RWED, Sustainable Development is looking at how to incorporate Inuit Qaujimajatuqangit in those types of areas, like PCB's. So that has been taken into context and indeed we are looking at ways of distributing it through the department.

Mr. Chairman, I wasn't referring so much to the work load that the staff is currently under, I know that it is tremendous, what I am referring to is seeking staff input into how they see the department going and asking for their input into trying to develop, and seek their ideas, on how to achieve those goals.

-----
When we made a decision to transfer the services from Montreal to Ottawa, one of the fundamental differences was we wanted the Ottawa providers to provide a comprehensive service.
*************** 
anniajuq qangatasuumiingaatuaqqat manturiami kamagijaulisuunguvu pijiqtiutiini pitaqaqtittiju.
-----
So as soon as the patient gets off the plane in Montreal they are then the responsibility of the service provider.

-----
So they provide the boarding, they provide the translation services, they provide the transportation and they provide the health care.
***************

I think that there is a fundamental difference there that the people on the Baffin Regional Health Board wanted to see.

-----
One of the concepts that they discussed in making this decision was that they wanted people to be, the patients that go down to Ottawa, to be more responsible for some of their own care when they are in Ottawa, as opposed to in Montreal, where everything was provided for them and many of them felt that they were being babied in that approach.
***************

So one of the differences was is that it is not supposed to replicate the Montreal service. Thank you.

Maybe in view of the Inuit in Nunavut, whether it's better for them or not, I think more people respond negatively to the current situation and having read many of the views people had, for example when you read them in Nunatsiaq News, some people would comment on how things could be improved.

Up to that time the Canadian Government built and maintained all facilities in Nunavut.

They're bringing those buildings up to snuff but the need is there for example in Pond Inlet, for example in Igloolik, when I was there a couple of weeks ago they got five nurses sharing one kitchen. That's not acceptable.

So right now one of the things the department's doing in conjunction with the Department of Public Works and Services is looking at the facilities we have in Nunavut to find out where we can use our small limited capital dollars to make the renovations and code violations and so on, that we need to do in our facilities.

Maybe the words are a bit misleading when we say children's programs. It just a type of it just a word that we're using to explain the process here for that line item.
***************

-----
But if I could explain it maybe by saying that for example, if under adoption services you have a child that's taken from a family and put into an adoptive home and there was an intervention that's where this money would come from.
***************

-----
Three point two million dollars in actuality is divided among the three regions of Nunavut the Kitikmeot, the Baffin, and the Keewatin so you take the three divided by three and a million dollars on average for each of the regions.

-----
And then that money is used for the health boards when they have to intervene within a family for the child that's being misused or abused or whatever for intervention services and to look at other types of things that are under care.

-----
For example, we have children who are foster children where their parents died and they are taken care by the government for example so the money would be in there for them maybe for their mental health and so on.

I think we have to explain what this is for, according to your response it's not for actual children themselves, the upper one is for the children but under children's programs, I think that the headings should change.

***************

So I don't know if that explains it, there's no mystery here as David is correct, the use of verbiage the words that are used to explain, maybe they are not clear as it could be or as concise.

What I can assure to the member, what I can commit to the member, is that if he's experiencing any abnormal rashes, I would be more than happy Mr. Chairperson, take him with my van parked outside to the Regional Health Board to the hospital here and introduce him to some of the fine medical professionals and we have on hand to help with that embarrassing but yet not unique rash problem.

The Standing Committee reviewed the Departments commitments for capital expenditures during this fiscal year very briefly, as Members did not receive the details or Inuktitut versions in time for our pre-meeting preparation.
***************

However, Members thank the Department for providing Inuktitut information at the time of the presentation.

-----
It is the Committee's understanding that for the most part, the selection of these "Priority A" capital projects was primarily based on the fact that under the GNWT, contracts were entered into or other steps had been taken in furtherance of these projects, or they were required because of safety or other legal requirements.

The Standing Committee was frustrated at not being able to play more of a role in reviewing these capital proposals and had questions about priorities.

For example, how a $250,000 link between two buildings in one community could have priority over additional space needs for classrooms in another community.

Members observed that there are no capital projects planned for Kivalliq this year, and concerns were expressed about outstanding safety and health issues affecting schools in Clyde River and Gjoa Haven.

Members welcomed a commitment from the Minister to involve them in the development of the capital plan in future and his statement that information would be shared with MLA's in order to have an open dialogue.
***************

The Committee would also like to encourage the Department to conduct an audit of what facilities are in each community.

Members would also like details as to what specific facilities there are in each school - for example, number of classrooms, size of gymnasium, library, specialized rooms or equipment, etc.
***************

-----
A question that needs to be answered is:
*************** 
qanutugi pitaqariaqaqqa ilinniarviqutini atausirmu nunalimmu ilinniavinni ilinniaqtuqutinginnu?.
-----
What is the minimum threshold that each community should have in facilities for their students?

-----
While some of these requirements may depend on the number of children in a community, Members want to ensure that all smaller communities have basic facilities, before any additional facilities are put into the larger regional centres.
***************

The Department also noted that forced growth and demographic projections in some communities will influence the needs of some communities, and the Standing Committee would like to receive more information about this, as it is available.

-----
I move that as a first priority, if additional resources can be found, the programs identified by the Department of Education for enhanced Inuit leadership in the schools programs be supported by the Government of Nunavut this fiscal year, particularly the one-year specialization for existing teachers to be able to teach in the higher grades, principle certification, additional community teacher education programs, and support to new teachers.

uqaqti, taanna nalunangngittuq saqqiiniarmat nutaanik pinasuaratsaniaqtunik nunavutmi isumanaqturijaulaungngittunik kingunittinni.

Mr. Speaker, I believe that this will help create new possibilities within the Nunavut area which may not have been considered viable previously.

maligaralaarijaulauqtuni vissasqarunnatitsinirmut nunavutmiut piviqaqtitautsiaqpalaungngimmata namminiq visnasqaqtutuqauliqtunut jalunaivmi ammalu ualinirmi.

Under the original Business Incentive Policy there were instances where Nunavut businesses were unable to compete directly with the well established businesses in both Yellowknife and the Western part of the Territories.

It is my belief that the Nunavut Business Incentive Policy will help level the playing field and create potential in such areas as small scale manufacturing and industry.

There will be opportunities for Nunavut businesses to fill the gaps which were once filled by businesses from the rest of the Northwest Territories where operating costs were, in some cases, much lower.
***************

Mr. Speaker, this creates additional opportunities in our communities which may not have been previously viable.

-----
The principle function of this policy was to enable northern firms to compete on an equal footing with southern firms in bidding for goods and services in the North.
*************** 
namminiq visnasqarasuarluni akitujualuuninga ukiuqtaqtumi pitaqariaqaqtitsimmat.

The high cost of maintaining a business in the North made this a necessity.

Mr. Speaker, when sports hunting became possible, one of the regulations was that all sports hunting of polar bears would be conducted using only a dogteam.

As the Inuit hunters started rebuilding dog teams one of the unexpected results was old Inuktitut terms, not in use for a long time, had to be revived.

This term, ikupingniq, has not been used in a while and the majority of the younger generation is not aware of its meaning.

As far as the numbers being finalized in the fall, Mr. Speaker, based on the current numbers with the new school there will be a requirement for, there will need to be two additional buses, dealing with the numbers that we have existing, numbers that we know already.

Mr. Speaker, I am not asking the Minister to undermine the process that is underway, but it is my understanding that the DEA, the Baffin Divisional Education Council, has gone through all of this process, they have determined that the only way that they can meet their bussing requirements that are going to be necessary next year, will be with two additional buses.

In my home community of Arviat we have probably one of the fastest growing communities in Nunavut, with approximately 80 - 90 babies being born each year, a population of approximately 1800 people, we have an additional 62 jobs that are associated with the decentralized model that are coming into our community and 27 of those jobs are in Education.

The trades programs such as training for carpentry, plumbing, electrical or mechanical training or for teacher training programs if there are many interested people in Nunavut we would automatically have to start considering if we need that kind of training centre in Nunavut and for the communities that did not receive any decentralization like the smaller communities.

If they requested we would consider that also but I don't want to say that Department of Education alone cannot resolve this and the Government themselves cannot resolve this we would have to work together and review this and to review which community would be the best appropriate community to have that kind of a centre.

From there the money can be reallocated or re-profiled within the DEC's or reallocated to other schools. So if they are high in one area, they can move money from there to another area where they are low.

-----
So there are not set amounts for set things, they can move it around, re-profile it, they can move it over. The Department does not take money back from DEC's, it allows them to move money around so if they are high in one area it is not taken back it is allowed to be move over.

I was trying to say that in the past the Education Authorities in the communities used to pay their employees within the community but in the past that authority was taken away from them to the Educational Board in Iqaluit.

But grade 12 levels are now being offered in the communities, and even though these people have graduated from high school and we are glad to see this, even though that is the case it becomes obvious that they need to get more education and many of them are unable to get employment even after getting their grade 12.

Those people who graduate grade 12, we are very proud of them today, but the Inuktitut training is still important and when you are experienced outside of the community education there has to be funding outside of that education to incorporate traditional knowledge and on the land survival skills as part of the curriculum.

I don't really want to respond to that but I would like to assure the member that when we were given this amount of money there was hardly any money for cultural inclusion programs .There was no curriculum's set up for that time slot that the schools were funded for.

I think that we need to look at the curriculum in the schools how we are going to fit in IQ this use to be a called a inclusion program but nobody really knew what was going to be included in our program, but we are aware of that. The younger generation for example are like commons age group for example people like Elisapee A.

When the GNWT started putting higher grades in the communities, if you still don't have grade 12 in your community, we will want to know which communities are and we'll want to know how many are in grade 12 or grade 10 so that in Pelly Bay they only have up to grade 9.

I'd like to take a moment to touch on concerns, I guess a grave concern that I have and not pointing any fingers or anything like that or any of the staff, any of the teaching staff we have in Nunavut.
***************

-----
That have as a result, what's happening as a result of those cut backs is the fact that our children, the children that we need trained adequately to do the jobs that were going to want them to do in the future, are not being given a level standard of education that they deserve or that they need.

-----
There is a large concern out there that just for education system, it is not up to standard in Nunavut, currently prior to that in Northwest Territories, so it's not a new topic, it's a huge task that you guys have to deal with. It's something that , I think it should be the most important priority for this government is to look after our future and the future in our kids and as in basic education that they get in order to be able to go on, to university, to college and be able to come back and do the jobs that were going to need them and want them to do in the future.

Mr. Chairperson, some of the things that really alarmed me is like I mention earlier, the fact that Nunavut has the highest student teacher ratio, now I believe I can be corrected if I'm wrong is that the majority where that is in the elementary level.

If you were to take a snap shot or the strictly the high school I would imagine that there's a drastic cut in the number of students, that flow from in to the primary into the high school.

-----
To me there's got to be a reason for that and from the discussions that I have had with people, over the last number of years. The kids that are in the elementary system are being moved ahead just out of courtesy to move them up instead of keeping them all in there so that the level, they're not getting education, they can be pass on to the next grade in the elementary levels.

Mr. Chairperson I know , I was made aware of individual as an example of the system and again no faults in my whole thing and I'm not pointing out to any body, but just to try and point out the need is that I know I heard of an individual that graduated from high school here in Iqaluit that was a literate.

-----
You know not everyone's cut out to be a academic person, there are a lot of people that are very talented with their hands, working in trades, once those programs were eliminated out of the schools, that segment of our populations our youth have no longer been given the opportunity to have the exposure to those to experience in school.

What happens is those are the people that there not handling the academics stream , they drop out and they become a burden on the social system where in the way it use to be we had program funding and people had exposure to that those people can go through and have in the past become trades people in those different areas.

In education there is no curriculum development any of the teachers from my understanding is they develop their own curriculum, there's no high school curriculum development in Inuktitut, I don't even believe there's very much done in the past grade 4, grade 5 that it is used in the schools.

-----
Mr. Chairperson , I believe if this government this department of education is serious about making Inuktitut our working language in Nunavut it needs to prepare our youth to be able to do that and that means developing curriculum that is at the same levels, at the same standard as an English and I think that English needs to be brought up so that student should be able to go from school in any community in Nunavut to equivalence anywhere in Canada and be at the same level.

The smaller communities are using more Inuktitut dialect but looking at it from the other side, one of my children had reach grade 11 and I live with them and I know them, and I know that their level of education is not up to par, although they are in grade 11, but looking at that they have been taught their education level is not grade 12.

What I'm trying to say is Mr. Chairperson, I'm not trying to put down any teacher in my home community but looking at the students in my community the education system needs to be improved especially on the English part of it so that the students and a trainee or education can be up to par with other provincial.

I would like to see is that we need to educate our children on how to survive out on the land as a daily, we should be teaching the students the daily survival skills, there's many students out there who do not want to be in school, we should make a land skills available, we should make that kind of training available and get a person who can teaches land survival skills with a certificate.

That is partly the answer that I was looking for but the main focus of my question was, is there any testing being done now with students from grade 1 to 9. Because if it is only being done after you get to grade 10, 11, 12 it is probably too late.

I really don't have a clue. It has been mentioned to me by different individual people, it has been mentioned to me in my personal life before, but there is no survey or I don't even know if we could get that information voluntarily unless, like Mr. O'Brien said can you do a preliminary or touch base survey to find out where we are.

-----
In regards to social passing, if we pass kids through the system and they don't get a solid reading, writing and arithmetic level in grade 1, 2, 3 and 4, 5 and they are just pushed through for the numbers because you have so many coming in that we're pushing them through the system, when they get up to the level where they have to start writing departmentals .

If they don't have solid skills and problem solving abilities, when the get into grade 9, 10, 11, that's where our dropout rates start.

-----
By then they are into their late teens, 17,18,19 years old and they are at a frustrated age level where they can't pass any of these courses, what I found in my community since we got grade 12, because we all pushed for it, because we wanted our kids to be close to us going to high school, so we could influence them and we didn't want to send them off up to a foreign community.

-----
Because we didn't have enough influence on them, so the situation that we are running into is that we have schools in the Keewatin where kids are only going two to three days a week and two or three periods a week.

To me if you don't develop skills for getting out of bed every morning, going to a school and studying hard, then I think that is going to contribute to the dropout rate.

-----
I know that it is early in our mandate and I don't want to put this pressure on the Minister but is there some way we can get around to maybe making the schools to a point where kids go from 9 to 4 on a regular basis, rather than this helter skelter two or three times a week or two or three times a day sort of thing.

I think that what happens is that the parents bring up their children up to age 5 and then they start going to school and they wean them from the relationship and they really don't know what level or how good they are in the school. Are they the top of the class, are they the middle of the class, where are they.

Mr. Chairman, the current system provides for a priority 1 student which is someone who needs someone with them at all times of the day in order to be facilitated and be in the school and also there are priority 2 students who need extra help, they don't need someone there with them all of the time but the do require extra support throughout the day.

From my understanding Mr. Chairman, and Mr. Rose can correct me if I am wrong, all the schools are operating under budgets that have been continuously cut over the last number of years, and as a result of the cuts in funding that the Boards have received on top of the growth that is here, they don't have the money to move around into these extra areas.

An individual went to the store to buy some corn on the cob and he saw the price $1.87 and thought that was for the whole package but then he found out that the $1.87 was for one corn on the cob.

We know that it is fine for people working and making a good salary, they can afford to pay for the groceries, but we have many people on social assistance that can't pay that $1.87 for corn.

Yet this traditional economy is strong here in Nunavut, Mr. Chairman.

This means Mr. Chairman, that we recognize that the development of our economy is dependent on the land, on the continuing good health of the natural environment that has sustained our people for thousands of years.

When these three elements are in balance - the protection of our land, economic development, and the full participation of our people - then I believe that economic development can be sustainable, that it can be long-lasting, and, Mr. Chairman, that it will lead us to our goal:

We are all affected by economic activities in Nunavut but, in today's world, we are perhaps most concerned about the economy when we reach working age.

Our working age population in Nunavut, or the number of persons aged between fifteen and sixty-four years of age, is estimated to be a total of 16,433 people in this year, 1999.
***************

During this government's term of office, it is projected that the number of people of working age in Nunavut will increase by at least 13%.

As many commentators, particularly in the media, have pointed out, it will be a great challenge for this Government to assure that people of working age in Nunavut have an opportunity to assume a productive role in his or her community.

There are several reasons why I am confident that we can achieve this goal.

Mr. Chairman, there are some very positive trends in Nunavut that warrant mentioning.

Few people are aware, for example, that between 1991and 1996, there was a greater percentage increase in jobs in Nunavut, than in any other part of Canada, or in the country as a whole.
*************** 
tamannalu kajusiinnarniarasugivavut gavamaunilimaattinni.

We expect this trend to continue throughout the term of this government.
***************

We all know that employment depends on achieving higher levels of education.

In the ten years between 1986 and 1996 the percentage of our adult population who left school before grade 9 has fallen from fifty-three to thirty-one per cent.
*************** 
tavvanittainnaq innait isulittijut ilinniavinnut quttiniqaanut paippaaqtaaqtut marrugiarniqaqsimavut.

At the same time, the percentage of our adult population who graduated and obtained a post-secondary certificate, diploma, or degree, has almost doubled.
***************

I do not want to force this Committee to listen to a long list of statistics, Mr. Chairman.

And we all know that statistics can be misleading.

But it is important that we recognize that positive changes are taking place in our working age population, and that we expect these changes to continue, and to continue to improve.
***************

Our economy is a dynamic mixture of the traditional economy, based on the production of food, clothing and craft, and new resource opportunities in tourism, the fishery, and minerals.
***************

Mr. Chairman, government plays a large a role in our economy.

Many of the employment opportunities available in Nunavut are with government.

-----
This has caused frustration in the past for many of our people, who have had little to say about what type of employment is available in government, and, in many cases, have been excluded from government jobs because of the special qualifications required.
***************

All of us here, Mr. Chairman, can assure that there will be more and more opportunities for our people to take the jobs in our Government, and to find those jobs closer to their homes, in our communities.

More than a year ago, the federal Minister of Finance, the Honourable Paul Martin, made a commitment to work "with territorial governments and other northern partners to develop a modern economic development strategy that recognizes the dynamics of the North and the need to establish more diversified economies." Now that the Government of Nunavut is in place, we can act on the development of this strategy.

With the creation of Nunavut, and the settlement of our Land Claim, we have jurisdiction over our land and some of our resources.

Because I think if we got past those barriers of trying to sell products to them, I think our products in Nunavut would be well received because of the cleanliness of them and the natural process of them. Down south anything that's grown without chemicals or things like that or any animals that are harvested that aren't full of steroids and stuff like that, I'm just trying to find the word.

if there is any way we could track that I think it would astound us on how many dollars from northerners goes south and sit in bank accounts, and if there is some way that we can get them to invest in the north, it would attribute to our own local economy whether its partnerships or investments groups, or just trying to keep dollars in the territory that are going south and getting people to reinvest it back in rather than put them in GICs.

I don't think seasonal jobs should be put in Nunavut to make us look like we have low unemployment rate and I'm telling you this now, anywhere else in this country called Canada that we're suppose to be very proud to live in, if they had an unemployment rate 50% in any jurisdiction in Canada it would be called a national disaster.

And I'm very happy to hear that but in our community, in my riding in Igloolik and Hall Beach and I'm sure it's the same with the other communities, that during the summer, we have a lot of fish that come down river and we try and catch as much as we can for commercial purposes.

I think that if the government can commit to some type of incentive for someone to manufacture products in Nunavut, that would mean you are only bringing in raw materials into Nunavut, you would be using local employment to turn those raw materials to turn those into products that could be used in construction, in anything.

Mr. Chairman, in adopting the BIP on an interim basis for Nunavut, they looked at the policy and the GNWT had added to the BIP policy two or three directives.

One of the reasons for re-examining the Northern Manufacturers' directive as the Minister was saying, is there is only one manufacturer in Nunavut, so the question was raised, should we be having a directive that benefits only one company only.

I just wondered, as was mentioned earlier, with the business incentive policy, is it run through Sustainable Development or is it run through Public Works, and if that type of program is run through Sustainable Development, in the way of a subsidy type program, why would the manufacturer's one go over to Public Works and not be dealt with in the same area.

With regards to the question regarding loans in this years' operating budget. In terms of loans the primary vehicle for the department in terms of delivery of loans is the Business Credit Corporation, which is a revolving fund that is established, which is replenished each year to support lending activity.

I guess I should have asked, I would imagine that the outstanding balances from the past Business Credit Corporation would be factored into the division of assets and liabilities within the region.

-----
So I don't know if this is the right place, is there in the outstanding loans out there that are being transferred over to us, what is the amount and what is the delinquency, I guess there are people that are just not paying back those loans, because as Mr. Martin indicated it is a revolving fund, and we can't continually replenish it from government dollars and the dollars from those loans have to be paid back.

With those two gold mines comes approximately 500 jobs. 500 jobs times an average of 80 thousand dollars a year works out to quite a few dollars.

What I am alluding to here is that there doesn't seem to be any money out there, or very little of it identified, that if a couple of gold mines in the Keewatin region start up in the next couple of years, and most of those jobs are going to be at the mine site, 200 in Baker and 300 in Rankin.

But as you know there has been initiatives in the past, what they called community mobilization, where both levels of government and industry put in money for exactly what you are describing, providing training leading up to the opening of the mine.

In regards to that, if this is not identified shortly, that means that the workforce will come from southern Canada and the benefits of the mine, the paycheques will go south, the taxes will go south, and there won't really be that much impact other than a few royalties and things like that.

Given the importance of mining and the impact it would have on the residents of Nunavut, I believe it is going to be our salvation as far as jobs, it doesn't seem like a lot of money. It is probably more than we had before but would the Minister consider increasing this amount, so that more financial assistance could be provided to the prospector's in reference to grub stakes.

Mr. Speaker there was a plan that the doctor, if the doctor went to Igloolik the doctor would be able to cover off logistically Hall Beach and indeed there might have been an arrangement to cover off Arctic Bay and also Nanisivik that's also my understanding.

Mr. Speaker the member makes a good point, I guess the concern from the Baffin Regional Health and Social Services has been the difficulty of covering off more communities if the doctor is placed in Igloolik, that's what they've explained to me with the decision in maybe not to move the doctor to Igloolik.

Mr. Speaker I guess I don't know the frequency of staff applying for units that become available when they're already in government of Nunavut staff housing, but I guess I would have to go back to saying it would be based on specific needs. If they need a new unit for specific reasons then certainly that would be one of the factors in the assessment made by the allocation committee.

When the Minister is trying to help the smaller communities in the banking services, perhaps the officials of the banks can consult and visit the communities who wish to start small businesses of some sort, because we need the services.

-----
I would like to make some comments. In the 1970's the Government of the NWT signed an agreement to do a census.
*************** 
atiqput ilijaulauqsimangmata ammalu atiqpu ilitarijaullutik atirusivut piqasiutiglugu, piluaqtumik kanatami taaksiijaijikkunnut.

Our names were put in there and were recognized with our last names, especially by Revenue Canada.
***************

-----
But the way our last names were written, they were misspelled. Also the birth dates are wrong in Project Surname.
***************

-----
Mr. Speaker, naming people is very important in any way of life.
*************** 
kisiani atit titiraqtauttiariaqaqtut taimanna sivulirilauqtavut attiijijutiqaqpalaurmata tukiqaqtunik.
-----
The writing of names should be done properly. Our ancestors had names with meanings.
***************

-----
When a loved one dies they name their children after them so they can remain close to the memory of their loved ones.

-----
For that reason Mr. Speaker, in the beginning of our government, we should correct this situation and have the proper surnames written down and that is what I would like to see.
***************

-----
I will use myself as an example, Mr. Speaker.
*************** 
atira titiraqtaukammaksimangmimmat, anaanama attilaurmanga pukirnangmik, pukiq tukiqarmat tuktuup kingulliingik.
-----
My name is misspelled, my mom had named me Puqiqnak, puqik meaning the back leg of a caribou.
*************** 
taimanngat atirusiqsuilirmata, atira asijjiqsimaliqtuq maligtugu titiraqtausimaninga (Pokirk), ammalu taaksuma titiraqsimaninga maligtugu tukiqanngittuq inuktitut.
-----
When project surname was there, my name was changed to Pokirk, and that work doesn't mean anything.
*************** 
taimanna mikillitittingmat inuuninnik, atiralu titirakammaksimatillugu inuusirnik mikillitittingma.
-----
So it puts me down as an Inuk person, because my name is misspelled.
***************

-----
Mr. Speaker, our names have meaning, and they have to be written down properly. I rise today so that our names can be spelled correctly in Nunavut and so that the birth dates can be corrected.

An example of the problems with the census, I have a sister who is older than I am by two years, but in our birth dates it says that we have the same birth date on the same year.

I think we have to start considering whether we have enough money to build a new Assembly. We did not state how long this House would be used, perhaps for fifteen or twenty years and after that we could make a decision over whether we should build a new home for the Legislative Assembly.

I have been a hunter from the time that I was a child.

With the outboard motors that we use today the propellers are sold separately.

-----
For the hunters this creates a problem. They might buy the whole outboard motor but the propeller is sold separately and because of that the hunters lose out on income that they might be earning because they're waiting for the propellers.
*************** 
tamakkua qiannguujuut asingilluunniit atuqtut atangiumariaqarasugigaluarakkit ajurnasiarmat ilaksaqtaarasugiaksaq nunaliqutittinnit.
-----
I believe that outboard motors or any equipment should come whole because it's very hard to buy parts in our communities.

-----
I think that you are very well aware that if we need parts we have to order them and it takes a while so I'm suggesting that the Minister of Transportation write a letter to those retail outlets or to the manufacturers and tell them that they should send us whole motors instead of having to buy parts separately.

What the Department of Health has done Mr. Speaker, and I think it's been very proactive, is we have brought on a Suicide Specialist within the department who has been working on training manuals in the last several months to help us deliver proactive courses in communities on suicide prevention. And that's the key here Mr. Speaker, it has to happen at the community level and it has to happen at the family level.

Mr. Speaker, my question again to the minister is if he does not know whether there is a Mental Health Specialist, or somebody with those skills in the community, if he would endeavour to find out and if not, to make sure that in the time to come down the road, that there is somebody put into place to deal with these problems.

-----
We've got to compete against other jurisdictions to find those professionals. So the commitment that I can make right now to the member is that the Government of Nunavut, the Department of Health and Social Services of Nunavut will look into the request just now made by the member in this House and follow up with it with the member and with the staff that we have actually at the local level in Arviat and again at the regional level out of our Rankin office.

The minister for the power corporation doesn't plan to set up the office of the new Nunavut Power Corporation anywhere because the Government of Nunavut hasn't decided yet as to what role the power corporation, the present NTPC will have or indeed if we'll be having our own stand alone power corporation in the future.

We have expended the funding for most of the communities.

As I indicated in my response to the honourable member Mr. Tootoo, the Government of Nunavut Financial Management Board recommended that there be a functional review of the programs that were approved by the GNWT to make sure that those three health facilities fit the needs of the Government of Nunavut Department of Health.

Mr. Speaker, there has been an agreement between the GNWT and the three birthright development corporations prior to April 1, 1999, in which the preliminary design work for the three facilities was undertaken by the three birthright development corporations with an agreement that if the facilities were not to go ahead for construction for whatever reasons or as a result of the decisions of a future government, the Nunavut Government that came into existence, they would be reimbursed for those costs.

The minister answered the first part of my question but is there going to be a timeline on when we can probably see this mineral accord and when it can be signed, because I think we all recognize that the sooner we sign it the more benefits are going to stay in our territory once the mining industry is in the stages of development and producing.

I don't like to feel like I'm pressuring the minister on this mineral accord, but it would certainly appeal to me and probably to other members of the House if this accord could be signed off or could be finished before the mandate of the federal government is over which might not be too long from now.

-----
Mr. Speaker, that's indeed an excellent question because as the member knows, the health facility, the hospital for Iqaluit, we're looking at maybe three, four, five years down the road by the time we move through the program functional review, get the architectural design, the drawings, do the site work, and so on.

At that time Mr. Speaker, we'll be graduating our first Nunavut nurses, the first Nunavut Nursing Program on the ground in Nunavut, and I think the members of this House ought to pat themselves on the back for their support of education and health in delivering that program.

-----
It's hard for me, Mr. Speaker, to look into the future and say what the requirements and staffing needs are going to be and am I going to have difficulty, the economic situation changes as I just said and we are going to be bringing on our own Nunavut nurses.

So all these issues, all these points, and all these circumstances, all these logistics will be in place and it's difficult for me at this time to answer the question by saying that we may or may not have a problem four years down the road in recruitment and retention for a new facility.

One, there's some really exciting news that the members will be getting briefed on this afternoon after the House sits, in the Health and Social Services Department up-date on recruitment and retention issues.

Suffice it to say Mr. Speaker, we can't look at when and where, it's hypothetical to say what the problems are going to be, if there's going to be a problem two years down the road for recruitment.

During this session, I want to expand on that briefing by updating you and the House on more of the exciting and sometimes difficult initiatives that are underway in my department.

As you know, we have been very busy over the past six months implementing the decision to integrate the Regional Health Boards into one department.

Mr. Speaker, the process of integration has been a large and challenging task for the boards and for the department and I want to commend all the staff for their hard work and commitment to excellence.

The process of integrating the boards could not have been as productive as it has been if it weren't for the patience, ideas and support of the Chairs and CEOs of the regional boards.

Mr. Speaker, over the past six months the department and regional staff have set up an internal working group called the Nunavut Illuarsajiit Action Team to identify practical solutions and ideas to improve recruitment and retention of nurses and social workers in Nunavut.

As you can see, Mr. Speaker, we are working on many initiatives, but for us to be successful, we need to build our capacity in the communities and to deal with the financial pressures facing us.

Mr. Speaker, the budget that is given to the department, the last figure that we had in the Main Estimates, is 133 million dollars.

Of course these are not adequate, because from this pie when we disseminate those funds, then we no longer have control because they still have to pay for the teachers and the O&M and everything that goes with it.

When we had our meeting in April, I asked this same question regarding the larger communities with larger populations.
*************** 
iiprumi apirilauqsimagama iqqanaijainnaqtumit iqqanaijaqtiqarutta innatuqait katujjiqatigiinginnut akituluarajarma.

My comment in April was that if we had a full time position for the elders societies it would cost too much.
***************

So I made the suggestion that perhaps the larger communities elders' societies could get a secretarial support position on a half time basis.

That was just in relation to the larger communities where they have elders' societies and if it's possible to get a half time position to give administrative support for these societies.

The reason I am saying this is that we need to retain the elders knowledge and to have everything written down so that we don't forget our culture and our language.

Given the concerns that have been raised by many members in the House on the lack of social housing and the urgent need for both a short and long term solution on this issue, is the minister aware of the rent supplement program that was in existence under the old GNWT and still is, whereby the private sector provided housing to the Corporation for people who were unable to pay for, or to find suitable housing?

What I am trying to say is that I have, over this past couple of weeks, had the department on conference calls with every single community, with every Mayor, every region of Nunavut has been contacted to see exactly what we have on the ground after April 1st, do we have a sub-committee of Health on the ground right now and where we don't have one we have talked to the Mayors to see if they would be interested in setting up a sub-committee of Health for the Hamlet. Now that way Mr. Speaker, you would have elected officials dealing with health issues as part of the restructuring that we are trying to do with health, indeed Mr. Speaker, it's part of the fundamental shift that we are trying to do in health care and the delivery of health care in Nunavut.

But, to be serious, the 8.9 million dollar deficit as of March 31st of this year, was announced because the three Health Boards tabled their audited statements.

It would indicate that the debt, the 8.9 million dollars, that has been discussed publicly, was previous to the Nunavut Government being set up.

-----
It looks like, as we are tracking this through, around '93, '94, '95, '96 fiscal years, the expenditures on Health in Nunavut, specifically in Nunavut, did not keep up with the amount of money that was being transferred to the three Regional Health Boards.

What we are trying to do right now is to analyze this debt to see what caused it and there are different causes for it, Mr. Speaker, and I think what the member is trying to say is what are the causes, was it the expenses that we have in medical travel, is it the morbidity, people are getting sicker, we are seeing more instances of diseases that we did not see Mr. Speaker, five years ago.

So these types of problems come forward and we need to look at how we are going to re-base our budget, how we are going to deal with the deficit situation, so that not only can we enhance the delivery, but we can enhance the delivery of Health and Social Services at the community level.

Mr. Speaker, I can only answer as to what has happened after April 1st, as before that it was another government as you know and the debt that we have now on the books from the department of Health and Social Services, the 8.9 million dollars, I can speak directly to that.

-----
The debt that was there previous to April 1st was another government, we inherited that debt and the way the formula financing agreement is set up between the GNWT and the Government of Nunavut, the assets and liabilities negotiations are ongoing, and this does not fall within that framework.

There was an agreement reached with the Office of the Interim Commissioner, and the GNWT and the Federal Government, that those debts incurred by the Health Boards, and indeed, the Education Boards, prior to March 31st was assumed by each incoming government.

Mr. Speaker since Iqaluit is the capital of Nunavut, and all eyes are on Nunavut, especially by tourists and dignitaries that visit Iqaluit, we have many staff that are in Nunavut that support the residents of Nunavut and they are very important to the communities and these employment opportunities are beneficial.

That would mean that the staff in Arviat would have to operate pretty much on their own without... they would have the headquarters but their boss would be here and I find that somewhat confusing and I don't see it making a lot of sense.

Mr. Speaker, the intent would be twofold:

-----
first, so the residents of Nunavut would know exactly what the Government of Nunavut spends its resources on, where it gets its resources, so, in a broader sense, outlining the government's budgets and secondarily, just as important, is receiving input from members of the public throughout Nunavut, from a Nunavut legislative political perspective, having the teams of ministers and MLAs receive feedback first hand from community groups, organizations, hamlets, individuals, on exactly what are the priorities they see the Nunavut government trying to focus on.

-----
Mr. Speaker, this information that we'll gather, is it fair to say that it will be used or can be used in this year's budget process, because whether it's capital or programs, there's dollars related to it, so one will take away from the other.
***************

-----
I guess my concern is that I don't want to create false hopes and go to the communities and we get a list of projects and program changes which may cost dollars, and then not be able to do it because we already have a set agenda, we have projects in the mix for this year and for the next four or five years.

Mr. Speaker, yes, it would have some impact on this year's budget development both from a program and capital perspective but I think the honourable member raises a good point on the issue of expectations.

-----
We have to be really cognisant of the fact that there is a limited amount of dollars that we have out there. There's programs and services that we provide now and I think what all people will have to recognize is that if we're going to make any kind of dramatic change in any of our programs that we have now, to target some of the priorities that might be identified as first, second or third priorities for our constituencies, that it would mean a shift of resources from some programs that we have now, so there would be an impact on the present Government of Nunavut budget.

But I think what's important, Mr. Speaker, from this exercise, the public at large understands the dilemna, the circumstances that we are confined by in development of our budgets and that by the same token, we realize, from the comments and input we receive from throughout Nunavut that we have to, at some point, make decisions about what priorities are, based on what the constituency at large are saying.

My concern would be how does the minister's department plan to go about this because there are probably many individuals out there that your department are not aware of that have problems with the spelling of their last name. So what is your intention as to a consultation process to make sure that everybody who has a problem with this, with their last name being spelled improperly, how they'll be notified of the procedures to correct this.

What we've done, for instance in Cambridge Bay, is we did a survey of all our employees that travel between Cambridge Bay and Iqaluit as one example, and there was a lot of traffic during the course of a single month.

-----
So what we have done is we made those studies available to the airlines, to show the amount of traffic that's taking place between Iqaluit and Cambridge Bay and I undertook as well to help out the member for Igloolik, through their Mayor, to do a similar study. So if there are further requests made we are open, through my office, through the Bureau of Statistics, to collect further data that can be made available to the airlines.

So there's going to be more traffic between certain areas and I wonder if the minister responsible has taken that and given it to the statistician to see if there could be an increased traffic flow in those areas.

-----
The benefits of more traffic between Cambridge, Gjoa, Pelly and Spence, it would probably be a cost savings to the government, rather than them having to go to Yellowknife, sit there in hotel rooms for a couple of days, and this is not only MLAs but the government employees.

Mr. Speaker, last week I answered a question about potential excess funds that may be available to this government and I cited some of the potential areas where we might have to expend some of those funds. I implied at the time that there was a Supreme Court ruling on the federal pay equity issue.

-----
The impact on us Mr. Speaker, in respect of the award that was allowed for that federal case, there are some precedents that will be set that will impact on the GNWT of which we are a party in respect to the pay equity dispute, because of some of our employees that are on the Nunavut side or that were residents of Nunavut at the time, over the years while the pay was accumulated.

Mr. Speaker the member is correct, when the GNWT first analyzed this there was a potential impact to the Government of the NWT at the time, it was potentially in the range of 80 million dollars from what I understand.

-----
Since then of course the GNWT undertook individual offers to past and current employees for sign off on the pay equity amounts that might have been coming to individual employees, and it was my understanding that anywhere in the area of 80 to 85% of those employees have signed off.
***************

-----
So there is a question on the release of those past employees signing off whether or not there will be any further liabilities if there were to be a subsequent tribunal or court ruling in respect to the pay equity issue.

We have, it's my understanding that the Government of Nunavut in the division of assets and liabilities, has approximately 12 million dollars set aside as potential ongoing pay outs for the pay equity disputes, but that is a figure that I will make sure that I confirm to the honourable member.

Yes it's in the original five year plan that we got from the GNWT but if you can recall, I think it was in the June session, that if it's a safety issue or if it's a health issue or if it has a risk or if it's a contract that has already been awarded, only these projects would go through. If it's not within those categories then it would be deferred to another year.

Mr. Chairman, I don't believe so because that regulation for livery licenses, taxi licenses is under the jurisdiction of transportation and some municipal bylaws that effect it as well, but it wouldn't in respect to any aspect of the Workers' Compensation Act unless there was an accident in which a taxi driver were injured during work from his occupation and that's when any claim that he or she might put forward would be dealt with by the workers' compensation board.

-----
Where the basic Workers' Compensation Act is that the coverage is provided to protect employees and protect employers from that possibility but by the same token, individuals that have been injured while at work would get adequate compensation as a result of the premiums that are paid to the Workers' Compensation Board.

What happens in other jurisdictions in reference to this clause or this amendment and if you could give an example to the members of how this would apply if somebody were to get hurt on the job that would want to sue their employer but at the same time they're also getting compensated through workers' compensation so it would almost be like double dipping.

-----
The way the legislation used to read in the NWT was quite distinct in Canada and that legislation would have allowed us as the Workers' Compensation Board, on behalf of Mr. McLean who has been injured in a collision between these two vehicles, to sue the owner and the driver of the other vehicle but not the owner and the other worker of the vehicle in which Mr. McLean was riding.

-----
The GNWT Board passed an amendment by way of a private member's bill in November 1998, which allowed Mr. McLean as the injured worker and us acting on his behalf to sue not only the driver and the owner of the other vehicle involved in the accident but also the owner and the other driver in the vehicle in which Mr. McLean was riding.

-----
As the minister indicated, this would be contrary to the principles on which workers' compensation operates and that principle is that the employer pays assessments to the board so he can avoid being sued by his workers.

In paying those assessments, he also protects any other workers who work for him from liability as a result of that accident involving his worker.

-----
So the change went much further than is desirable and what we're asking this assembly to do now is to amend the act so that in my example, Mr. McLean who's the injured worker and the Workers' Compensation Board acting on his behalf could sue the driver and the operator of the other vehicle but not the owner of the vehicle in which he was involved in the accident and the driver of the vehicle sitting along side him. If that's acceptable Mr. Chairman.

-----
And the purpose, just to simplify matters, the reason why employers buy into and pay fees for workers' compensation is to protect themselves and if we were to allow injured workers to also sue the driver or employer, that would defeat the whole intent of workers' compensation. This is just to make sure that the various companies that pay into it are getting a fair deal and they're not getting sued because the workers' compensation package is going to pay for the injuries and whatever is necessary to assist that person that got injured to get them back to health and also whatever monies are necessary to pay out for the accident.

We did sign off on a two year deal with the Royal Bank, but obviously there are other banking institutions that are interested in our business and once again, when the proposal calls for banking services for the government comes up for competition that certainly will be a key criteria for the evaluation of any proposals.

The first response you made was that we might not inherit the deficits and the next one I heard is that once there is a dissolution of these boards we would inherit the deficit and now I hear that FMB has not looked into this issue. Are you just responding to our questions without reviewing it further or doing a review on it.

I believe I said yesterday and I'll confirm today that yes on April 1st, or March 31st, whenever the actual dissolution date of the Health Boards is, the Government of Nunavut, Department of Health, will assume the ongoing deficits that are carried over from the Health Boards as we are taking over their assets and liabilities.

Mr. Speaker, the GNWT passed the Access to Information and Protection to Privacy Act in 1994.

-----
The Act came into force on December 31, 1996.
***************

The Act was then inherited by the Nunavut Government on April 1st of this year.

-----
When the GNWT passed this Act in 1994, they included a provision under Section 4 which made privacy clauses in other Acts prevail over the Access to Information and Protection of Privacy Act until December 31st 1999. On December 31st of this year, Section 4, Clause 1 ends and Section 4, Clause 2 comes into effect.

-----
Clause 2 states that the Access to Information and Protection of Privacy Act will prevail over all other Acts unless specific amendments are made to state otherwise. The GNWT took three years to determine which Acts require changes to the Access to Information and Protection of Privacy Act.
***************

In this case it is my understanding, because it is a land debenture using the Town of Iqaluit scenario, it's generally because of their capital projects with long repayment periods, generally a 20 year time-frame for repayment.

And one has to remember that these are interest-bearing loans as well because it is not interest free. By and large when the capital projects are completed they're flexible enough that they can advance payments and repay it outside of the minimum terms outlined for repayment.

They were in a crunch of not being able to secure reasonable private commercial lending to deal with trying to develop a subdivision to meet their housing needs because of the fact, we know, I think all members know in their personal situation of trying to find reasonable accommodation, that there's very limited accommodation here in the capital because of the growth that's taking place right now.

It takes some of the pressure off public housing as well, because some of the individuals that might get Government of Nunavut jobs might have the availability of private housing or to move out of public housing if they were to get new jobs as a result of all the economic activity that's taken place here.

-----
These are serious questions and I have some concern with the logic behind the 10 million dollar ceiling itself and whether the money be spent in Iqaluit or Cambridge Bay, it really wouldn't make a difference to me. To me the issue is that we have needs and you say it's not a grant or a freebee.
*************** 
pimmariugivarali pijariaqaqtuqaratta uqaqtutillu tunirrusiagunngimmat akiqanngittuujjaangimmalluunniit.

I understand that, but it's still 10 million real dollars that comes out of the pot of money. We have 10 million dollars to be divided up in three or four different areas but there's only one pot of money.
*************** 
tamanna tukisiajara, kisianili suli $10 miliaummata kiinaujallariit nuitaujut kiinaujaqarvingmik.

If it were 10 million dollars that is not in the pot for example, to spend on housing, and it's hard not to bring these different issues or areas into the fold but they're there, they exist.
*************** 
$10 miliaqaqpugut agguqtauniuqtuni pingasunut tisamanullukiaq kisiani atausiummat kiinaujaqarvik.

And again going back to my earlier comment, I feel that it could be better spent elsewhere. That money's going to be tied up for 10 or 15 or 20 years so it's money we can't spend.

They certainly are not at the level of Iqaluit unfortunately but my point is I just feel that's a large sum of money to be taken out of the pot at this point in time when we're in such difficult financial state.

-----
I know that for a fact and this a standard government procedure for our municipalities primarily because, except for the Town of Iqaluit, none of them are tax based and that restricts quite frankly some of their borrowing abilities from conventional commercial institutions because of not being tax based municipalities.

-----
So Mr. Chairman, it could be for land based development, it could be for municipal needs because of deficits or financial difficulties that the municipality is encountering, such as Clyde River, but I think that the onus is on this government to support our municipalities needs in trying to assist them and that is what the intent of this legislation is Mr. Chairman.

-----
I can say that if we were to have the money all lent out and there were additional needs for the Government of Nunavut, for whatever reasons and I won't get into the specifics again, the Government of Nunavut has significantly stronger borrowing powers than a smaller municipality so it more than offsets what may be out there in respect to loans to municipalities.

Mr. Chairman, my final comment and question would be, given the fact that this document, the Loan Authorization Act has not been passed, we're discussing it now, it also annoys me I guess, to hear that we've already committed 5 million dollars of it or 5.2 before it even being passed.

When the legislation came forward as you all know, from the Government of the Northwest Territories to Nunavut, there was an assumption made that the Authorization Act was one of them.

-----
We found out subsequently, after our session in this past spring, that wasn't the case, that we required legislation on a yearly basis because this is a loaning authority and it has to come back on a yearly basis for approval to this House. So that was an oversight and that's why we're here today.
***************

But by the same token, we knew that these municipalities required assistance, so we made that decision to go ahead, recognizing that we would have to bring in the legislation subsequent to that.

-----
Now, obviously, I can't dictate what the committee wants to do. If they were to decide for whatever reason not to pass this legislation it would impact on all our municipalities, not just the ones that we've made commitments to, then as a government we would have to revisit it and see what remedies we would be able to put in place to assist those municipalities where we've made commitments and to assist those municipalities that will be coming this fiscal year for additional needs.

Obviously if a municipality, a taxed based municipality such as Iqaluit, were to get to the point where it was thought that the possibilities of repayment were to be jeopardised, where we're assuming too much liabilities, too much long term debt, then that would be one of the factors that would have to be taken into consideration at that time.

Mr. Chairman as I have indicated, once the repayment schedules have been worked out there is a lot of flexibility in the loaning or the lending of funds to municipalities and like I indicated earlier we are trying to support them.

-----
If a municipality gets a loan and they get another loan on top of it they would have to repay the first loan and if they get another they also have to pay for that, the previous deficit and also the loan. So in my community we were in a deficit situation and on top of that we got a loan.
***************

I am sure that the interest rate is lower than the commercial banks but then again, they might have a loan at the bank and they have to make those payments and they have to pay that loan to the Nunavut Government.

The first recommendation was to have a lawyer appointed by the minister on the nomination of the Law Society of Nunavut and for each region one person appointed by the Minister on the nomination of the regional committees, when the regional committees exist.

We did discuss this but I didn't include that because the regions will be represented through the regional committees who will each be nominating a representative for appointment and Nunavut's practice of widely consulting and advertising for appointments to boards and agencies will ensure that the appointments of these additional board members would fairly represent Nunavut.

I have had an opportunity, not only Mr. Speaker, to go through the Rotel, as you have, but also an opportunity to go through the Larga Home which is owned by the Qikiqtaaluk Corporation, the Inuit of Baffin.

Mr. Speaker we are working on that right now and as we are speaking today, my deputy minister of health and social services, Mr. Ken MacRury, is actually meeting with the OHSNI group to see if we can facilitate some kind of an understanding where we could facilitate people who are older, our elders for example, unilingual people to the Inuit specific home in Ottawa.

I again reiterate and state Mr. Speaker, I cannot talk about what someone said on the radio station, radio broadcasts or interviews are not before this House but I can say if the member has specific indications of someone being treated poorly, or any member of this House, or any member of the general public, then I would like to see it in writing and bring it forward, because it isn't acceptable.

What we have tried to do in the Rotel in Ottawa, is to try and clamp down on that type of behaviour and if someone is an escort, as the member was talking about, in most cases, 90% of the cases where I am aware of, it is not the patient, it is usually the escort that is with the patient that has the problem with alcohol.

-----
Quite frankly what it is, is that the numbers that we have been given, 53% of the staffing levels now of the Government of Nunavut, that is not inclusive of the boards and agencies, when you factor that in, the actual government staffing levels are 73%.

If you used the Government of Nunavut 53% one has to realize that is 53% staffing of the permanent positions that were budgeted, that we approved in this House.

But that does not take into consideration, Mr. Speaker, the casual staffing, the contracting back, the consultants that are hired in the interim to address shortfalls in the staffing levels.

In order to continue to provide services when we don't have all the permanent staffing on hand, that's how the departments are dealing with the provision of services.

-----
The second reason being, Mr. Speaker, when they develop budgets, they recognized that all the departments wouldn't be fully staffed on April 1st, I think we all recognized that as we are progressing through the year trying to staff all the departments, and they are trying to reach their full staffing complements.

-----
Because of that at the same time, some of our staffing costs in the budget were what they called back end loaded, when they realize that the staffing levels increase over the course of the year that more staffing budget requirements would take place, there would be more need for staffing funds for the latter part of the year.

-----
In Clyde River's Case, Mr. Speaker, the best information available to the Power Corporation, to NTPC itself is that power rates would rise anywhere between 35 - 40 % based on the new infrastructure that we're putting in place in Clyde River.
*************** 
taima utiriakkannilaurlanga tamanna unikkaarigiakkannirniarakku mista uqaqti.
-----
Now let me back up just a little bit to explain the situation Mr. Speaker.

-----
As the member knows and some members of the House, the GNWT and through the Public Utilities Board, went to community based rates for our power supplied to us and in that case when there's new infrastructure being installed in a community has to pay the infrastructure costs and I think that's what the member is trying to say.
***************

-----
The cost relationship with the increase with the new capital infrastructure in Clyde River is about 35 - 40 %. After saying that Mr. Speaker, the Government of Nunavut, we know indeed, that most people would realize that 35 or 40% increase is not bearable by the constituents, by the taxpayers, by the residents of Clyde River for that matter, for anywhere in Nunavut.
***************

-----
So what the Government of Nunavut is looking at doing and what the community of Clyde River can do as I explained when I was in Clyde this past summer, first of all, that generating station needs to be in Clyde River.
*************** 
ikummaqqutiqaqtittijariaqaratta kangiqtugaapingmi.

We need to be able to provide power, electrical power to Clyde.

-----
On the 35 - 40% increase as I explained when I was in Clyde this past summer, that the community, the Hamlet of Clyde has an opportunity through the Public Utilities Board when the rate increase occurs to be able to be intervene.

-----
Mr. Speaker, I'll try to be concise and try to articulate that the rate impact on the Community of Clyde for our best estimates right now could be and the operative word here is could be, 33-40%.

The rate will not be determined until a Nunavut Public Utilities Board has been formed and reviews a General Rate Application where the community of Clyde River under that General Rate Application would have intervenor status which would be paid for on any cost increase.

Then we would have an opportunity to have intervenor status on that application and as a government we realize that a 33 - 40 % increase is not acceptable.

And those issues and decisions they make over the coming weeks, we can then reflect better for the people of Clyde on this situation with the rate increase, on the community infrastructure and on the new power plant.

But in any case, it's several months down the road and before that occurs, Mr. Speaker, the people of Clyde River will have an opportunity to review and have a look at that.
***************

As you know Mr. Speaker, the biggest users of power in the communities is the government.

-----
So if the rates increase by 40% in Clyde River, who will pay that Mr. Speaker, it would be me and you and the members of this House and the constituents in the community at large, the people of Nunavut.

-----
So we are acutely aware of that and I want to reassure the people of Clyde River and the member that this government will do everything in it's power to make sure that that any rate increase is acceptable, nominal and indeed affordable to the people of Clyde River through the process that is in place.

Being that the Minister hasn't finalized her proposal yet, I would ask her if she would consider putting a name forward from the Keewatin Chamber of Commerce, as one of the representatives, given the fact that this policy effects all businesspeople and what we have on it is bureaucrats, with all due respect, and elected representatives.

The Business Incentive Policy that the Government of the Northwest Territories enacted was developed by the Keewatin Chamber of Commerce for the Northwest Territories.

-----
They lobbied the government of the Northwest Territories to enact a Business Incentive Policy. That's why we have a Business Incentive Policy, because the private sector, who are the stakeholders in this, lobbied and drew it up and worked with the government as equal partners to develop the BIP, and I'm just echoing what Mr. O'Brien said in regards to it.

-----
But the Business Incentive Policy was formed to protect businesses, and I have to reiterate that there should be somebody, preferably from the Keewatin Chamber of Commerce, and the present President is Ray Mercer, who was one of the driving forces behind the Business Incentive Policy in 1983 and 1984.

-----
I know the other chambers of commerce like the Kitikmeot and the Baffin and Iqaluit were sort of reaping the rewards of the Business Incentive Policy and I was reading the document again and it sort of says you're going to consult with the business leaders and things like that, but what scares me is that they won't be, and we're going to have a Business Incentive Policy that won't be reflective of the business community.

What worries me is that the Business Incentive Policy was a good document, but it was written in 1983 and 1984 and times have changed, where Article 24 has come along.

We need it, because you'll hear from people, and I've heard from people, being the past President of the Keewatin Chamber of Commerce, about Article 24 and the Business Incentive Policy and I've had to sit there and try to explain it to people and I couldn't.

-----
The Business Incentive Policy, like I said, was established to give northern businesses an advantage over southern businesses because large firms down south would bid on work in the north and they would bid low, lower than the northern company, because the northern companies, as we all know, have to own warehouses and keep staff in the north all the time.
***************

-----
During the construction season they had to maintain staff and a lot of staff in the construction industry up here are Inuit staff, and when companies down south bid on it, they would fly their staff up and work on contracts and have no training components involved.

That's why the Business Incentive Policy was enacted, to protect northern businesses and encourage them to grow.

So I'm kind of hoping that with this new Business Incentive Policy that cabinet is working on, and like it says here in the document, that some of the members are going to be encouraged to be on, will still protect northern businesses from southern businesses.

I don't know if the Minister understood what I said.

I would also like to thank the members of this committee for allowing me this opportunity to go into details about Bill 6, an act to Amend the Access to Information and Protection of Privacy Act.
***************

The GNWT passed the Access to Information and Protection of Privacy Act in 1994.
*************** 
maligaq atuliqtitaulauqsimavuq tisipiri 31, 1996mi.
-----
The act came into force on December 31, 1996.
*************** 
tamatumuuna nunattiap gavamanga upalungaijarunnaqsititaulauqpuq pijarialinnit malinnianirmut maligarmik nutaamik.
-----
This allowed the NWT Government two years to prepare for the requirements for compliance under the new legislation.
*************** 
maligaq kinguvviujjaulilauqsimajuq nunavut gavamanganut iipuriili 1mi arraaguttinni.
-----
The act was then inherited by the Nunavut Government on April 1 of this year.

maligaq tukiliarujjivuq inuit pijunnautinginnit kanngunaqtuqutinginnut ammalu inulimaat pijunnautinginnut atuinnaqarnirmik tukisigiarutinit gavamakkunnut tigumiaqtaujunit.

The act balances the peoples' rights to privacy with the publics' right to access information held by government.

-----
The act restricts what types of personal information the government can collect about Nunavummiut, and once collected what the government can do with that information.
*************** 
maligaq iliqqusiqaqtittigivuq nunavumiut tuksirarunnaqulgit tukisigiarutinit tigumiaqtaujunit gavamakkunnut nalunaiqtittiaqtunilu qanuittunit gavamakkut sakkuitittijariaqarmangaata tukisigiarutinit qanuittullu kanngunariaqarmangaata.
-----
The act also provides mechanisms for Nunavummiut to request information held by government and clearly determines what information government must release and what information must be kept confidential.
*************** 
ajjipalunginnit atuinnautitaunirmut kanngunarnimullu maligaqtaqauqpuq gavamaqarvilimaani kanatami.

Similar access and privacy regimes are legislated in every other jurisdiction in Canada.

-----
The Access to Information and Protection of Privacy Act inherited from the GNWT is now in place and the Nunavut Government is subject to all of it's rules and provisions in both the areas of protection of privacy and the right of access to information.
*************** 
maligaup ataani nunavumiut nalunarunniiqtitaujunnaqput namminiqutingit sapujjauniarmata nunavut gavamanganut ammalu atuinnaqarunnarmata tukisigiarutinit tigumiaqtaujunut gavamakkunnut pijunnaqtitaujunit maligaliatigut.
-----
Under the act Nunavummiut can be assured that their privacy will be upheld by the Nunavut Government and that they can access information held by government as provided for in the legislation.

-----
When the GNWT passed this act in 1994, they included a provision under section 4 which made privacy clauses in other acts prevail over the Access to Information and Protection of Privacy Act until December 31, 1999.
*************** 
tisipiri 31mi arraaguttinni siksian 4, uqalimaarvik 2 isulinniaqpuq siksian 4 uqalimaarvik 2 atulingaarniaqtuni.
-----
On December 31 of this year, section 4, clause 1 ends and section 4 clause 2 comes into effect.
***************

-----
Clause 2 states that the Access to Information and Protection of Privacy Act will prevail over all other acts unless specific amendments are made to state otherwise.
***************

-----
This allowed the GNWT legislature to consider all other privacy clauses in other legislation and determine if they are inconsistent with the Access to Information and Protection of Privacy Act.
*************** 
ajjigiinngittuuppata aaqqiilutit nalliat saalaksarajarmangaaq.

And if they were inconsistent to decide which one should prevail.

-----
The act amended ten acts to reconcile the differences in the privacy and access rules between those acts and the Access to Information and Protection of Privacy Act.

The GNWT took three years to determine which acts required changes to the Access to Information and Protection of Privacy Act.

-----
The Nunavut cabinet feels strongly that the assembly should not just automatically copy what was done in the GNWT but should carefully consider other ways in which Nunavut statutes should be amended before the Access to information and Protection of Privacy Act takes precedence over all the privacy clauses in the legislation.
***************

We believe that the assembly and the Nunavut Access and Privacy Commissioner who will be appointed by the assembly should be involved in these decisions.

Unfortunately as the act is now written these decisions must be made and the amendment enacted before December 31, 1999.

This does not give the public the right of access and the privacy commissioner or members of this assembly time to consider the matter.

-----
Mr. Chairman, it is for these reasons that our government is asking the assembly to pass Bill 6 an act to amend the Access to information and Protection of Privacy Act in this session.
***************

Bill 6 extends the December 31 deadline by one year.
***************

Mr. Chairman, one year is not a long time to undertake the legal and policy work needed to make the necessary amendments.

-----
However, Mr. Chairman, with the assistance of the new commissioner and with the input of the assembly and with the standing committees we believe that we can meet the December 31, 2000 deadline.
***************

-----
Mr. Chairman, I want to assure the members of this assembly and all the Nunavummiut that by extending this deadline we are not in any way taking away any rights to access or rights of privacy away from the people of Nunavut.
*************** 
imannali pinasugumavugut maligalimaat ullumitituulingaqallugit arraagulimaap ungataanuunngittuq.
-----
What we are proposing is to leave all legislation as it is today for a maximum of one year.

-----
Mr. Chairman, I feel strongly that any changes made to peoples' rights to access government information or the right to privacy of personal information must be carefully and fully considered by this assembly before they are put into effect.
***************

-----
Given that the assembly and our government have only had a few months to consider this matter, I do not believe that asking people of Nunavut for a one-year extension for this legislation inherited by the GNWT is an unreasonable request.
***************

I am not going to give you the full details of what he was like in Hall Beach, but in the summer, my older brother, myself and Jamesie, went Beluga Whale hunting quite far from my community.

-----
We were quite far away and we got a bearded seal and since we were far from my community, my older brother said that we could leave the meat, because we were going to be there for a long time and it would just rot.
*************** 
taimali jaimisi kiulauqsimangmat inungnut uqaujjauqattarakta niqinginnit qimaiqattaqujaunata, usijjiutililauqsimagakku umiaktinnut.

-----
Since those two couldn't agree and since I was the youngest one I didn't say anything, and then James started putting the meat in the canoe and my older brother took them out at the same time as James was putting them in.

This means for the people of my region and my community that they will not have to make a major change on October 31st.

But Mr. Speaker it distresses me that many of the communities in the Baffin are expressing much discontent about this as it effects them more deeply.

Mr. Speaker I am sure that if this were my community that had been effected, I would feel the same as the members from Clyde River and the other communities that have expressed concern about the change.

-----
It appears, Mr. Speaker, that the discontent is not so much with the principle of the initiative as it is with the timing of it and the sense that communities were not able to participate in a fuller discussion about what this means to their lives.

Mr. Speaker, if we are to have this change done in the spirit of unifying Nunavut, then we must do it in a manner which unifies and doesn't divide the people.

I should add that last week in this House, as the minister responsible for social workers and indeed, nurses and other health professionals in the communities, we talked about and said in response to his question at that time that we did not have staff housing, Government of Nunavut staff housing available in the community.

In this case, Mr. Speaker, the minister responsible for staff housing, Hon.

The situation is though, Mr. Speaker, is that we don't have a policy in place right now as a government where we subsidize privately owned accommodation for our Government of Nunavut employees and it is something that we have to look at and we also have to make sure of what the cost-benefit analysis may be in this situation.

What happened, Mr. Speaker, and the member knows this because he was with me, I was invited to go to the community of Igloolik by the member, I wanted to go up there and talk about the dissolution of the health boards.

***************

So they were aware of it, of the possibility of a doctor going to Igloolik , the possibility of putting a doctor in Igloolik.

-----
What had happened was, on the cost side, on the administrative analysis, was that the Baffin Regional Health and Social Services Board felt that by putting a doctor in Pond Inlet, instead of Igloolik, that doctor would be able to cover off more communities, with better transportation connections, at less cost.

-----
Given the financial situation of the health boards, it was very difficult for me to look at that and say, okay, I want to put a doctor in one community over another, when there was a cost difference especially when you looked at the logistics and administratively where the person, the doctor in question, could cover off more communities and more patients by being based in Pond Inlet.

In the case of the doctor that went to Pond Inlet, by the way, Mr. Speaker, that doctor wanted to go to a community because they had adopted some Inuit kids, and they wanted to make sure that they had a background in Inuktitut and indeed, Mr. Speaker, the member and myself had met with the doctor and she explained that to us.

Mr. Speaker, I realize that the internet is a very exciting field and it's a system that everybody should be connected to, whether you're in a small community or a bigger community, because you can learn so much and you can have so much access to the rest of the world. But right now, I don't have any plans in the near future to start connecting those communities, but it's something that I have already talked to my staff about.

***************

I'm not a mathematician, Speaker, or indeed, as Mr. Ng said, a statistician.

What I am is a person who understands what the question is the member is trying to bring up, if I'm correct, is why our rate is so high.
*************** 
tamannalu inugiatiguungavuq.
-----
And that's based on a ratio.
*************** 
imannailinasulaurlagu.
-----
And I'll try to explain it this way.
***************

-----
When you look across Canada, as a population, as a group of people, the ratio of people smoking, for example, in this case, is higher when it is compared to other provinces, other territories, other jurisdictions within our country.
*************** 
imannak tukilik kanatalimaaq tautunnguarlugu immagaa atausiq 1,000ni inugiani kaansuqaqtuq imannaittumik.
-----
So what that means, is when you look at Canada as a whole, maybe one in one thousand people has a certain kind of cancer.
*************** 
nunavumili inugiarniqsaujutigut takunnaruttikku immaqa tallimat 1,000ni piqarajaqtutit.
-----
And then we take that, and in Nunavut, it may be, based on our smaller population ratio, it may be five in one thousand people.
*************** 
imannailinganngittuq inugiakinniqsaunittinnut qanualuk quvvasiktuutaummangaata naasautivut.
-----
It doesn't mean that because we have a smaller population base, why are we having these numbers.
***************

-----
Each population ratio stands alone on its own merits, as it were.
*************** 
taimannaummat maanili quvvasittunit naasautiqakatarutiqaqtugut inugiatigut atuni saqqiqpalliajuni takunnaaqtugu.
-----
So in this case, the reason why we have so many high numbers is based on the ratio that's brought forward per capita.
*************** 
tamanna naasautiliangujuq atuinnaujasivakpavut, mista uqaqtii, inugiangunitiguuqtuq.
-----
That's what we always use as the number, Mr. Speaker, is per capita.

-----
I don't know if that helps the Member, to explain why it seems so high, even though we have a small population we have higher incidences of this.
*************** 
kanatamiut inulimaangit tautullutikku uqarutta 1,000 tamaat 20 isaaqsuqtuqaqpappat nunavuulu takunnaruttikku 37ullutit.
-----
So when you take the general population of Canada as a whole, and we say, for every one thousand people there are twenty break and entries, for example, and when you look at Nunavut, there is thirty seven.
*************** 
taimannak tautunnivut tunnganiqaqpuq inugiakinniqsaugaluaratta tamaaqtaqtuuninga atuqtugu.
-----
The reason for that is based on the smaller population based on the smaller ratio.
*************** 
mikilaanguninga tikiutigiaqpattavut.
-----
It comes down to the lowest common denominator.
*************** 
taimannaimmat, mista uqaqtii, kanatalimaami saqqijaarniqsauningata saniraani quttiniqsauvugut amisutigut pijunit suurlu puvallunniq, aittuqtaujunnaqtut, qupirrinaqtut, imminiirutaujut asingillu.

In that case, Speaker, we are higher on a national average, in a lot of these instances, like TB, like infectious diseases, like sexually transmitted diseases, suicide rate, and so on.

-----
When we extrapolate, which means to take out those numbers, and show on a national average, how our instances of morbidity are higher, then it indicates that our population is having a more difficult time over the last few years with these different instances of infectious diseases and other problems, for example, suicide.

Mr. Speaker, I have a question for the Minister of Health and Social Services.
***************

He said that even if we get the resident doctor in our community, the number of illnesses will not decrease, that was his response.

-----
So my question is for example, setting up TVs is very important, there's a lot of telehealth systems up now, and the patient is diagnosed through the Telehealth system.
***************

-----
Are these Telehealth systems better than resident doctors.

Mr. Speaker, what I was trying to point out is that in other jurisdictions, not just here in Nunavut, a lot of governments would like to move toward a nurse practitioner model.
***************

I think, Mr. Speaker, Telehealth is probably one of the most exciting technological opportunities that have come a long way for us, here in Nunavut.
***************

Telehealth has proven itself in other jurisdictions across this country, and across the world.

In our case, for example, Mr. Speaker, as the member knows, we had a case where we had - I think it was eight people, who had some problems with a skin rash.
***************

-----
Instead of having to medevac the people down from Pond Inlet to Iqaluit, we were able to hook up through Telehealth where the doctor was able to, through the television screen, look at the rash, diagnose it, and then have the nurse in charge treat it.
***************

I can't come out with the person's resume of course, that's confidential information but what I can do is to see if indeed the person that's been hired by the Keewatin Regional Health and Social Services Board, we have for example in these types of positions a job description that is made available and if the job is posted, giving in that job description of course, the qualifications that are needed to carry out the job.

My question would be, the building that we are spending this 250 thousand dollars on for this library, who actually owns that building and what will happen to that building after the short term use of the library is completed and they move into the school which will have a new library, permanent library.

Thank you Mr. Chairman. Mr. Chairman, past practice in fire losses have shown that is not the case, although a substantive amount of insurance would cover the bulk of it there are always extraordinary expenses and liability on behalf of the government that they would have to provide some additional funding for schools, buildings, whatever the case may be for fire losses Mr. Chairman.

As we approach the end of this session and look forward in just a few short weeks to the dawn of the new millennium, let us not forget that the success of Nunavut does not necessarily depend on what we do as political figures, or what we say in the House, in it's soul Nunavut may be a small territory but it is a large family.

The Standing Committee on Government Operations considered Bill 3 at its meeting on September 30, 1999 and noted that there would be a dramatic change in certain communities where the time would go back two hours.

-----
When the Bill was presented to the Committee for review, the Chairperson of the Committee, Mr. Akesuk, wrote a letter to the Government on that date, noting that there is a significant degree of confusion and uncertainty about the social and economic impact of the change on people, schools, businesses, etc.

So the Committee asked, in their letter to the Government of September 30, whether the Government would consider delaying the coming into force of Bill 3, for communities where the time zone adjustment would be two hours.

The second return to an oral question, if I may Mr. Speaker, asked by Mr. Alakannuark on October 27th, 1999. I rise today to provide a response to the question posed to Minister Thompson by Mr. Alakannuark on October 27, 1999.

Certified bulk aviation fuel is available to aircraft in the surrounding three communities of Rankin Inlet, Coral Harbour and Baker Lake for requirements other than emergencies.

The capability of the Coast Guard Tanker to move fuel products to this community is restricted to one product, so only P50 fuel is transported to Pelly Bay.

Mr. Speaker my question is directed to the minister responsible for the Nunavut Power Corporation, or I should say the NWT Power Corporation, I am not quite sure how to handle this since right now it is sort of in between.

-----
Mr. Speaker, the report that the member talks about, Mr. Speaker, came from Manitoba Hydro and it was a pre-feasibility study.
*************** 
maanna, tukisijakkut qaujisaqtauniuraaqjutsimajuq, angijualuutsunilu qanuilinganirmigut amma aaHaluuna qaujivalliqsimajut.
-----
Now, my understanding is that it was a pre-feasibility study, that it is broad in its implications and that indeed, it made some assumptions.
***************

-----
For example, my understanding after reading the report is that one of these assumptions was that every home in Rankin Inlet, Whale Cove and Arviat would switch to electric heat.
*************** 
tamannatagga akinut turaangaluannguarajaqtuq.
-----
So that would be some major cost implications if that occurred.

-----
There are also some huge capital dollar implications, so what we have done through our partner, Sustainable Development, that is Mr. Peter Kilabuk's department, we have done an analysis on this pre-feasibility study and I would assume that the next step would be to do a feasibility study.

-----
The study that was presented took some time, I believe it was several months in the making, and a feasibility study would have to look at the environmental impacts, it would have to look at major bridges, major rivers that would have to be crossed, it would have to involve NIRB, the Nunavut Impact Review Board, it would have to have environmental assessments and so on.
***************

-----
I can say that on the pre-feasibility study, that has been prepared by the Manitoba Government, that has been transmitted to me as the Minister responsible for the Nunavut Power Corporation, that we have had a chance to analyze, that we have had a chance to review it at this time.

We will be able to look at it again in some detail, which is what we are trying to do now with our partners, Mr. Kilabuk's department, and from there with our meeting that we are trying to arrange right now with the minister for the power corporation of the Government of Manitoba, to see what the next steps would be.

Now given the intricate amount of work and the complex nature of the work that had to be carried out to put the transmission line in place, that could be a two or three year project from the information that was made available to me.

What I can commit to the member at this time, that as the Minister responsible for the Nunavut Power Corporation, we are looking at it and over the next several weeks after we have had an opportunity to look at it with the Manitoba Minister responsible for Hydro, and then we will be able to come back to this House and give the members and indeed, the people of Nunavut and the Kivalliq Region where we will go from there.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker.

-----
Mr. Speaker the report is a weighty volume, it is a very thick document.
*************** 
atausiunngittumik tukisiagutiqattautigijuq.
-----
There are several assumptions made in the report.
*************** 
nainaaqsimajuqutiqaraluaqtunga, uuttuutigillugu ikummaqqutiksaup tikititauninga niruaqtauguni 138 kiiluvuuttiulutit, tukisiajjutaugajaqtuq iglulimaat ikummaqqutitigut uqquusaqattangaalirajarmata akigilirajaqtuniullu ikummaqqutik tamanna 18 sansit kiiluat ikarramut.
-----
I do have a briefing note here, for example, if the electric power delivery option was chosen, at 138 kilovolts, the assumption would be that all households would switch to electric heat and the cost to deliver that power then would be 18 cents per kilowatt hour.
*************** 
ikummaqqutiqaqtitaujuq akiliititaugajaqpuq 30 sansin kiiluat ikarramut.
-----
The cost to the customer would be 30 cents per kilowatt hour.
***************

-----
If the electric power option, Mr. Speaker, given the assumption again, was 230 kV, then all households would switch to electric heat and all potential mines would be hooked up to the power delivery grid.
*************** 
taimali mista uqaqtii, uqausiqaqtillunga ujararniarviutuinnarialinnit tukisianiqarajaqpunga nattilingmi pinasuagarmik immaqalu mista makliin niruaqtauvingata qamaniqtuap qanigijanganiikkajaqtumik.
-----
Now, Mr. Speaker, when we say the potential mines, that I would assume would be the Nettiling project and possibly the project near Mr. McLean's riding in Baker Lake.
*************** 
taimannaikkuni akiqalirajaqpuq 12 sansit kiiluat ikarramut ikummaqqutiqaqtitaujurlu akiqaqtitaugajaqtuni 25 sansinit.
-----
In that case it would be 12 cents per kilowatt hour and the cost to the customer would be 25 cents per kilowatt hour.
*************** 
taimaikkaluaqtuq, mista uqaqtii, nainaaqsimajuqutikka malillugit sanajaujjutik pinasuagarmut nalauksaaqtauniqaqput $200 milianit nalauksaaqtaugillunilu 138 kiiluvuuttiunniruni akiqanngualirajaqtuq $300 milianit.
-----
After saying that, Mr. Speaker, again from my notes here it tells me that the construction costs for the project is estimated to be in the range of 200 million dollars and it is also estimated that if it was 138 kV then the scenario would be 300 million dollars.
*************** 
ammattauq tamakkua tukisiajjutivut nalunairiaqaqtavut sivuraani pijunnarniugajarninganut qaujisarnituinnaummat.
-----
Again, Mr. Speaker, we have to predicate these assumptions by saying that this is a pre-feasibility study.
*************** 
pillariuniqsanit naasautitaarniarutta gavamavut piqatigilugit gavamatuqakkut maanituupaullu ikummaqqutilirijikkungit qaujigiariqarajaqpugut nakinngaarajarmangaata tamakkua kiinaujait suuqaimma maannaujuq gavamagijavut $230 - 300 milianit saqqitittijunnarniarasuginnginakkit tamatumunnga pinasuagarmut.
-----
To get more concrete numbers to see what this government would do in conjunction with the Federal Government, I would assume, and the power department of the Manitoba Hydro, is to see where those dollars would come from, because frankly, Mr. Speaker, at this time I don't see this government having 230 - 300 million dollars to put into this project.
*************** 
kisianili piqatiksaqarunnaqquuqtugut gavamatuqakkunnit immaqalu maanituupaup ikummaqqutilirijikkunginnit tunngavigilugu piruqpalliajuksait pivalliajauppata kivallirmi, nattilingmi pinasuagaq kajusinniqpat angijuutauninganut aqqutigijunnatuinnariaqalirajarattikku ikummaqqutimut uajaliqsuinirmik.
-----
But there may be some partnerships with the Federal Government and again, with Manitoba Hydro, based on if there are resources being developed in the Keewatin Region, if the Nettiling project goes forward then there may be economies of scale which would help us facilitate a hydro line.
*************** 
taimannaummat mista uqaqtii matusisimanngittugut ammalu niriugijaqarniaqtunga katiqatiginiarlugit maanituupaup ikummaqqutilirijikkungit piqatiginasuarniarlugit uqaqatigilugillu tamatuminnga qaujisarniulauqtumik utirmilungalu maligaliurvingmut tusaqtillusillu inuillu iliqqusikkanniujariaqarajaqtunit.
-----
So we haven't closed the door to it Mr. Speaker, again I reiterate that I would be looking forward to meeting with the Manitoba Minister in charge of hydro and allying and discussing this pre-feasibility study with him at that time and then coming back to this House Mr. Speaker, and updating the members and the people on what the next steps would be.

***************

The Rotel is operated by the OHSNI group and it is used for patients going to Ottawa, using the Ottawa General Hospital and some of the other hospital facilities in Ottawa.
***************

Patients from Ontario and other jurisdictions that need to go to Ottawa also use the Rotel.

-----
The patient cost per night for the facility right now under NIHB which is the Nunavut Insured Health Benefits, is 124 dollars and those costs are picked up, there are actually no costs to the patients for those people referred by the Baffin Regional Health & Social Services Board, in this case, to the Rotel in Ottawa.

As I indicated we are looking at lower than projected revenues, and it was lower personal income taxes, lower corporate income taxes than was originally projected, but the largest part of the projections was the result of not taking into account the Nunavut Child Tax Credit, which is a program that is cost shared with the Federal Government, providing direct income payments to lower income families in respect of child support payments.

-----
Mr. Speaker, the Minister, in his budget up-date indicates that approximately 58% or 60% of our staff has been hired, that would leave approximately 40% not hired and he's showing a $10 million dollar saving, primarily due to the decrease in hiring.

We've heard over the last number of months that capacity is a real problem for the government, I guess my question would be, given the fact that most of the money has been expended on permanent hiring and contractual work, is it fair to say that would in itself bring us up to near capacity as far as people needed to do the job and to run the government.

-----
The programs that have been approved, which members are all aware of through the review of the budgets and the business plans that took place both in standing committee and within Committee of the Whole in the House, with the programs that have been approved for funding. There wasn't a specific summer student funding program, it's set for what the government undertook in house.

-----
That's the reason why there wouldn't have been anything specific on that outlined here, so the projections or the variances, Mr. Speaker that are before us are based on what departments think they'll be under-expended or over-expended between now and the end of the fiscal year.

Each department, the honourable member used the example of Culture, Language, Elders and Youth, so they've spent based on this, their projections are that they'll end up spending 4.7 million and there will be, yes, 1.5 million dollars under-expended from their budget of 6.2 is what they're projecting.

Mr. Speaker, I recollect that we did ask for a summer student program and the fact that at this point in time, as of September, we have 1.4 million dollars spent I would think that as of two months ago we would have a good indication as to where we were and where we are going.

Mr. Speaker, my question is directed to the Minister of Health and Social Services, I had the opportunity in August to visit and meet with the OHSNI board with the Minister and at that time the OHSNI board had indicated that they were going to be meeting with the group representing the LARGA home and I'm just wondering if any progress has been made on that and if they have in fact had any meetings with them as they had indicated they were going to.

In response to an oral question asked by Mr. Iqaqrialu last week I explained to the house that the situation, the history regarding the use of the Rotel at this time is that the Qikiqtaaluk Corporation in conjunction with Nunasi Corporation have purchased a home in Ottawa and have renovated that facility having spent considerable dollars on that facility.

Discussions have taken place between ourselves, the Qikiqtaaluk Corporation and Baffin LARGA, the OHSNI group and the department of Health and Social Services and the Baffin Regional Health and Social Services Board to see if there is an opportunity to facilitate clients, patients of ours from the Baffin region to the Baffin LARGA home, specifically handicapped patients and unilingual patients to a more Inuit specific home in Ottawa.

In the mean time after saying that we do have a legitimate contract in place and we are not in a position to circumvent the contract but the contract is between the Baffin Regional Health and Social Services Board and we're in the midst right now, last week the Deputy Minister of Health and Social Services was meeting with the OHSNI people in conjunction with LARGA to see if there was an opportunity for the facilitation between the Baffin Regional Health and Social Services Board and the LARGA group to see if they could facilitate specific clientele, as I just explained, to the LARGA home.

And that's where it is right now, our hope is to have some type of resolution of this issue over the next couple of weeks and we are aware of some of the concerns that have come forward from our patients in this house and in other conversations with the usage of the Rotel in Ottawa.

LARGA arbitrarily set up the boarding home facility that they are intending to use in Ottawa and they have approached the Baffin Regional Health and Social Services Board to refer patients to their home to the LARGA home. In the mean time the contract is still with the Rotel and that is the agreement, an arrangement that has to be facilitated between the Health Board and the OHSNI group to see if they will facilitate clients to stay at the LARGA home.

I had indicated LARGA had asked for unilingual patients where possible, older patients, handicapped patients and so on. The government, me as a department, the Minister of the Department Health and Social Services had been conducive to that but we are not in any way going to step in and circumvent the legitimate and legal contract that is in place.

By the end of September, the Speaker noted that there had only been the sitting in April and May-June, and no committees had travelled for public consultations on bills. Since the sessions, expenses for October and November have not been incorporated, nor committee work after September 30.

However, it was noted that as of September 30, the session expenses were higher because of the higher costs of operating in temporary and rented premises in April and May and June.

Nevertheless, it is clear that there will be some slippage in areas where the positions have not yet been filled - for example, the Languages Commissioner and her staff.

Members were concerned that while there may be funds available to pay for these expenses, from slippage during this fiscal year, once the Legislative Assembly is fully staffed and set up, it will be necessary to ensure that a specific budget has been allocated for these purposes.

In the May, 1999 report, a strong recommendation was made to continue following up with the federal government to obtain capital funding for these items, which had been overlooked in the original capital plan for the Legislative Assembly.

Members were advised that in another Standing Committee, the Premier had reported that these further requests had been made but that there was no further funding to be obtained from the federal government to pay for some of these capital expenses which had not been predicted at the outset, such as the security and audio visual systems.

As requested in the May report, Members were pleased that the opening ceremonies were being planned for the opening of the session in the new chamber, and understood that the expenses for this must come from other budget items which will not be fully utilized this fiscal year.

If these options would require additional capital expenditures such as renovations, or an addition, or additional audio visual expenses, these should be put forward in the five year capital planning exercise.

Bill 3, if you were to look at the format under number 3, the first states that the Commissioner of Nunavut by and with the advice and consent of the Legislative Assembly enacts as follows;

The members of the Legislative Assembly did not deal with this Bill, Bill 3 so therefore it did not follow the proper procedures because it has a negative impact on the people.

All the residents of Nunavut are very happy about having a single time zone but the reason why they did not agree with this is because they did not consult and get input from the constituencies, because we dealt with this very hastily.

-----
I myself, after reviewing the Bill, I feel that we seem to be useless now as a Legislative Assembly because it did not go through the regular procedures and I feel like they're treating us as if we're nothing and if it was dealt with prior to October 31 it would have been more appropriate and it seems senseless to deal with this issue after October 31.

I tabled a document as we are always saying since we became the Nunavut Government that we would utilize Inuit Qaujimajatuqangit and incorporate that into our system. Especially when Inuit are opposing this through their Inuit Qaujimajatuqangit, through their tradition, I feel that this is very important.

Hon. Paul Okalik (interpretation):Yes, this has been discussed in election times, it was discussed at last year's NTI AGM that the central time zone would be adopted and we have reviewed this. So we felt that the central time zone would be the best for all of Nunavummiut and we have studied it and communities have seen how it was for Kitikmeot and Kivallimmiut when you have a different time zone.

If you are working for only 3 hours in government there is a problem there and as far as constituents go we would like to see support because the past arrangement was inappropriate and we've made changes as of a few days ago and it's been implemented because we have worked on it and we have made corrections.

-----
The Bill from my understanding after third reading, after it's passed in our session, maybe I'm mistaken or not, however here on two it states section 25 is (inaudible) and the following is substituted how does this read, "unless otherwise prescribed the reference to time shall be deemed to be a reference to central standard time".
*************** 
taimanna uqaqsimangmat qitirmiutait siqinngujangat taimanna apiqqutigiqqaugakku ullumikkanniq, qanullaringuna tukili?

As it says, the central standard time as I asked earlier, what exactly does it mean.

During the session if it is going to be central standard time, I think the wording should be corrected if it is going to be written in English, French, Inuktitut and Inuinnaqtuun.

It is obvious the Inuktitut version needs to be revised because in the English version you have central standard time, but the wording in Inuktitut refers to Kitikmeot standard time.

Prior to April 1, I believe in the month of March, when we were elected and got together here in Iqaluit, we started electing our Premier and I nominated him for the Premier position however considering his comments with respect to this Bill, he really wants to go through with Bill 3.

The short answer is that if an NTEP elementary teacher does not have grade 12, they must have it in order to take specialized high school training, or if it is an Inuktitut language art then that person will have to be recognized as having the ability to be a potential teacher in the culturally oriented programs in the high schools.

Also the fact that what really offended me yesterday after hearing it on the news, was the representative from Canada Post saying that, "oh people choose to live where they live".

After saying that Mr. Speaker, at this time there is no impact on the delivery of Health & Social Services, anywhere in Nunavut and there is no anticipation of lay offs and indeed, each health centre and the hospital here in Iqaluit and in the health centres in the other communities, we continue to be open and so on.

Thank you. Mr. Speaker, in my preamble I forgot to mention that even in the larger communities, like Iqaluit, I was out getting a cup of coffee the other day and I saw a sign up in a coffee shop, saying house for rent 26 hundred dollars per month plus utilities.

A third instance where an escort would be used is if in the opinion of the attending medical person, it could be the nurse or it could be the doctor who has referred the patient to another institution or outside their community, that person may say at that time that this person needs an escort because of the whatever the infirmity is at that time.

In the case that there was a discrepancy if there was a complaint or a concern brought forward by the patient, then Mr. Speaker, based on the policy that is in place, there's an escort policy with all three health boards at the present time in Nunavut, then with that understanding, a decision would be made for the escort.

As we all know we're living in small communities, they're compacted and they're not spread out like larger communities and what I've noticed over the last five or six years is that there was an abundance of government vehicles purchased by the government used for staff, cabinet ministers, maybe the odd MLA.

-----
In May of 1999, the Standing Committees of the Legislative Assembly of Nunavut recommended in the House that Government of Nunavut Departments provide mid-year progress updates to the Committees for review.
*************** 
ministait amma angijuqqautiit pilirivvinut saanganualaurngata katimajiralaat uktuuvva 14-mik 16-mut, 1999-ngutillugu.

Ministers and senior departmental officials appeared before the Standing Committees from October 14-16, 1999.

This exercise took place shortly before the opening of the Third Session of the Legislative Assembly, and the tabling of the Bathurst Mandate.

At the mid-point of the 1999-2000 fiscal year, the Standing Committees were interested in gaining a picture of where the new Government stood in terms of spending to date;

Unfortunately, Standing Committees were again disappointed by the fact that departments were inconsistent in the manner in which materials were provided to Committee Members.
***************

While some departments provided thorough documentation, others did not.

The Standing Committee again recommends that departmental materials be provided to Members in sufficient advance of appearances to allow for adequate preparation;

and that all materials be fully translated.

-----
Generally speaking, the Standing Committee on Culture, Education and Health was pleased with the progress to date made by the three departments under its oversight mandate. This report will serve to highlight the Standing Committee's main observations and concerns.

The Committee is concerned that the Department is only 25% staffed, with 12 positions trying to accomplish a very broad mandate.

In its May report, the Standing Committee had urged the creation of language policies to outline how language services are to be accessed, as well as other matters.

The Standing Committee is concerned that no update was provided and observed that difficulties seem to be encountered in providing effective and timely translation services from Igloolik.

-----
The Minister apologized for not having Inuktitut translations of his opening remarks, due to technical difficulties in sending the completed translations to Iqaluit, exacerbated by a shortage of computers in Igloolik with e-mail capabilities.
*************** 
katimajiralaat tukisisimatsiar&utik tusaajikkanirnit/tukiliurijinik innuilaakkanniriangit.

The Standing Committee is sympathetic and understands that more Interpreter/Translators will be put into place.

-----
The Standing Committee recommends that enough staff and enough computers with capacity for electronic communication with the Government of Nunavut be put in place in Igloolik immediately, in order for the Language bureau to be of timely service to the other departments.
***************

It is clear that the Language division put a lot of effort into ensuring that the other departmental presentations were translated, and much of this work had to be done at the last minute.

The Standing Committee was pleased to hear that an Inuktitut language program was being made available to non-Inuktitut speaking Government of Nunavut staff in Iqaluit this fall and that there are plans for carrying out the program in other communities, as well as delivering an advanced Inuktitut training program in the future.

-----
Members would like to see a Heritage Centre in Nunavut similar to the Prince of Wales Centre in NWT. Although not confirmed, the Minister noted that these facilities will likely be in Igloolik as this is where the staff will be located who will have the required skills to run them, such as the Director of Culture and Heritage, Chief Archaeologist, Toponomist and Archivist.

-----
Members wish to emphasize how important this organization is for the culture of Nunavut. Members note that there are various organizations which provide funding for the Arts, such as the Ottawa based Inuit Arts Foundation, as well as for festivals, such as the Inuvik Arts Festival, and this is sometimes confusing for people.

However, while Members are sympathetic to the extensive and sometimes unpredictable costs of care in the north, they are all too aware of examples in their own communities of where the Regional Health Boards have contributed to the unnecessary expenditure of money because of the way that the Boards organize patients' and care providers' travel at the last minute, escort policies, the use of expensive interim nurses on contract, etc.

Members do not understand how the Regional Health Boards, which are under the authority of an Executive Director and a Board of Directors have been allowed to run deficits in such an unaccountable manner and feel that some of the responsibility for the deficit must lie at the hands of the management of the Boards.

In addition, temporary nurses often increase the amount of medical travel, as they tend to refer patients to the larger facilities.

Nevertheless, the difficulties in recruiting new nurses were underlined by the fact that the Department recently had to go as far as Australia to recruit nine new nurses for Nunavut.

-----
The department clearly wants to be able to shift the focus from treatment and crisis intervention to prevention of illness and health promotion, as well as an overall goal of Inusikatiarniq, which is treating people as a whole, including their bodies, their spirits, and their cultural values.
***************

Nevertheless, the Committee is concerned that the approach envisioned seems to be one of hiring more professionals from the south, rather than one of community empowerment.

Members are not certain that the expense of these additional staff, not to mention the difficulties in obtaining that many new staff given our current difficulties with recruitment, retention, and housing, is worth the trade-off that may come from more investment in the community itself.

Similarly, a good community wellness worker can help the community organize itself to deliver a range of services to children, youth and families, much of which promotes healthy living and community service.

While the need for more prevention and health promotion programs is clear, Members would prefer to support this through supporting specific initiatives of the Department, such as when the Minister discussed the possibility of the Nursing Program with the Members of the Standing Committee in May of 1999.

I can say in respect to actual increases that the petroleum products division would ask through the minister responsible, they would bring forward, as to what took place this past December, bring forward a request to the Financial Management Board which is all of the cabinet members, the spending arm of the government, for their consideration of the price increase at that time.

It was an issue that was debated at great length but recognizing we couldn't let the revolving fund get in too large a deficit, because ultimately the government would have to come back in with additional dollars to deal with that matter, we approved the five cent adjustment.

It took quite a bit of time to translate those documents, but I have written a letter to the Mayor of Igloolik about the 70 positions to be transferred to Igloolik and these positions have been identified as to what their job descriptions are.

Mr. Speaker, I rise to pay tribute to Inusiq Sarah Akavak who died violently and tragically in Iqaluit recently.
*************** 
inuusiq qaujimajaarijaulaurmat ammalu nagligijauttiar&uni inunginnut iqalungmiut kimmirummiutavinillarik.

Inusiq was a well known and well loved resident of Iqaluit originally from Kimmirut.

She worked very hard supporting her family by selling jewellery in public places in Iqaluit in the evenings, often with her beloved daughter at her side.
***************

She also worked very hard during the day, housekeeping in houses and as a hotel chambermaid.

It also seems that at the same time she was coping with violence in her personal life and that she carried this burden largely on her own.

-----
Mr. Speaker, the residents of Iqaluit, Kimmirut and many other places where Inusiq was known and loved were shocked and saddened by the sudden death of such a hard working and always cheerful person.

I'm pretty dismayed that the Nunavut government wasn't invited to sign on the environmental side of this agreement and quoting media reports, I know I'm not supposed to quote media reports, but they said the western territory didn't want Nunavut in on this agreement and they didn't want them involved in it.

In Clyde River, as in all of our communities we have what is called the community based rates. When new infrastructure is being built in those communities the power rate in those communities has to increase for the equalization costs of the new infrastructure.

In Clyde River's case the NWT Power Corporations' best estimate is an increase of anywhere from between 35 - 40% but that won't be for another year, if it actually happens, because by that time, Mr. Speaker, we'll have our own Nunavut Power Corporation and us as a government will have a look at how we can negate the type of increase that Clyde River is expected to handle.

So what I can say to the member is that we realize, and that was a good question, we realize that there is a problem with the rates but before any rate increases were brought forward in Clyde River the Hamlet would have an opportunity to be an intervenor in a Public Utilities Board hearing as I tried to explain before in this House.

Mr. Speaker, earlier the Minister of Finance indicated that during the community consultations, pre-budget consultations, and community tours that happened this last summer, they received briefings from all of the municipalities on their tour, from the Hamlets on their capital plans. I am just wondering if, I am just trying to make sure I understood, did he indeed say that they received input from every Municipal Hamlet or Council in regards to their five year capital plan.

Minister given the fact that we are probably within a month of closing off the fiscal year and given the fact that it's been a number of months since we've had any type of bill like this before us would it be fair to say, and I'm looking for some form of a confirmation, that it would be fairly unlikely that you would come before this committee again looking for another supplementary appropriation prior to the end of the year unless it were an emergency.

Again Mr. Chairperson, I couldn't say whether we would or we wouldn't, it would depend on specific issues within departments if there was a specific need that a department had, or they want to reallocate funds from O&M to capital, or capital to O&M, because of circumstances that might take place.

Minister given the fact that we are approaching the end of the year and capital budgets and so on have already been put together, for the most part in many cases preliminary briefings have taken place I would assume at this point in time that we would be in a situation or position where we would know where we are going for the next month and a half, through proper planning and consultation with other ministers and members of this side of the house.

I would say that we would have to be cautious about how we deal with this issue. The reason why this has been put forward right now is that other jurisdictions, as you know, including our neighbours in the Northwest Territories have implemented similar labour market supplement programs specific to the nursing profession because of the national and international demand on these health care professionals.

It could be a collective bargaining issue but looking at it, a number of these people live in my constituency and have contacted me about it.

The Labour Market Supplement was brought forward to address a monetary issue that we have seen other jurisdictions pay in a supplement. The market rate supplement is one of the terms of the collective agreement and is there to address nursing shortages or professional shortages.

Strict interpretation of that agreement, of the MOU, indicates to us that nurses fall within that category and therefore the market rate supplement for nurses. It does not however cover off the certified nursing assistants.

The Minister of Health and Social Services indicated that due to a strict interpretation of the MOU, maybe directing this to the Minister of Finance, and also the Minister of Human Resources, that this government's approach to hiring, one of the things that it has said is that it wants to incorporate one's ability to do the job and not so much whether they have the papers to do so. I've heard it on a number of occasions in the past that that's what is wanted to be looked at.

I can commit to trying to work with my colleague, the Minister of Health because as you know on a specific issue, it's a regulated profession because of the health care profession and there are some regulatory issues surrounding certification, national standards and guidelines and that type of thing. I'm sure the Minister of Health is aware of this so we can take a look and see what could possibly looked at in that area.

Approximately 8.9 million dollars of accumulated deficit from the three Nunavut based health boards has carried over effective April 1, 99, but it's not from the 98-99 operating year, it's an accumulated deficit that they have run up for whatever reasons since they have been in existence.

So, having said that, with the division of assets and liabilities that was entered into and signed off between the Office of the Interim Commissioner, the Government of the Northwest Territories and NTI, the agreement was that all surpluses and deficits of independent boards, whether those be health boards or education boards, you have to remember, that will offset some of these in the broader scheme of things, will offset some of the deficits of the health boards.

As of March 31, we had the audits completed for each board as the fiscal year was ending.

-----
That came forward in June and that's when we knew officially there was an 8.9 million dollar deficit with those three health boards.

-----
Now, Mr. Speaker, what the Department of Health and Social Services has done, which has been talked about in this House in May and again in the session this fall to the Standing Committees, there is a concern over a shortfall of funding within the three Health Boards.
*************** 
8.9-milian kiinaujait ungataanut nalauqtaaqsimavavut uqaqtii.
-----
Eight point nine million dollars plus is our best guesstimate Mr. Speaker.

Right now it's an additional 11 million dollars.

-----
We won't know if it's 11 million dollars, Mr. Speaker, until after March 31, 2000 when the three audits will be completed for the three health boards.
*************** 
taissumani qaujilaaqqugut qattillattaangummangaata saqqitauppata.

At that time we will know the total amount that will come forward.

-----
I agree and I think that's been a history that discussions at FMB are confidential and I guess I am curious as to why they are showing up in the newspaper prior to members hearing whether or not there is a 20 million dollar deficit under the three health boards.
***************

-----
My question Mr. Speaker, to the Minister of Health, is given the fact that he's indicated there has been no frivolous spending regarding the health boards to cause this large deficit, what are his intentions for next year to ensure that we don't get into the same situation again, because we may not have additional dollars next year to cover off such a large deficit.
***************

Hon. Ed Picco:

-----
Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
*************** 
uqaqtii, uqausiqarunnanngilangali nunatsiarmi pivalliajukkut titiraqtamininginnit.
-----
Mr. Speaker, first of all I can't make much comment on what the Nunatsiaq News reports on any given day.
*************** 
uqarunnaqpungali katimajimut qaujimannginnama akilissaqutiqalaarmangaata aanniaqtulirijikkut amma inulirijikkut arragulaaqtumi.
-----
What I can say to the member is I can't also guarantee if there's going to be a deficit within the Department of Health and Social Services one year from now.
*************** 
sivunittinni qaujimannginnama.
-----
I am not Nostradamus, I can't tell the future.
*************** 
uqarunnaqpungali uqaqtii kiinaujait atuqtaugiaqaqpata aanniaqtulirijikkunni amma inulirijikkunnit tuavirnaqtukkut aullaqtittiqaqtarnirmut, ikajuusiaqattaqtunullu, aturiaqarajarattigu kiinaujaqutiujut.
-----
What I can say Mr. Speaker, is that if money needs to be spent within the Department of Health and Social Services for medivacs, for needs program delivery, we have to spend that money.
*************** 
pijjutigilluguli uqaqtii, 13-ngujut avittuqsimajut nunaliujut kanatami taimaiqattaqsimainnarngata aanniaqtulirijikkut amma inulirijikkut akilirassaliuqattaqpu, pillugu kiinaujait atuqattariaqarmata aaqqisuqtausimajut kiinaujatigut malillugit.
-----
And that is the reason why, Mr. Speaker, in thirteen jurisdictions in Canada, ten provinces and three territories habitually, the departments of health and social services run deficits, because you have to spend the money on budgeted items.
*************** 
tamannali uqausirijunnaqtara qanuilingalaarninga.

And that is the only guarantee I can give to the House.

But I can say Mr. Speaker, that the money was not spent frivolously, it was spent on needs, services, programs and staff.

-----
Mr. Speaker, the issue of the 20 million dollars that the minister I believe was quoted in this article, I don't assume that the Nunatsiaq News have made this up, so it is obvious that there are some major concerns here and problems.
*************** 
apiqqusirali ministaujumut, parnautiqaqsimammangaaq arraagumut qanuigiarutissaqarmangaaq taimaikkanniqunagu.

My question to the minister, does he have a plan to ensure that next year we can deal with this situation.

Does the minister have a plan.

***************

-----
Mr. Speaker, the two questions, first of all as the member knows, he's on the Health Committee, as the department and as the minister I have brought forward over the past several months a breakdown of where the deficit has come from, from program areas.
*************** 
uuttuutigillugu, uqaqtii, katimajiqjuat kiinaujaqutingita 25-ngit ingirranirmuungavammata aanniaviliarujpirmut, tamannalu akiliksaliamik 20-gikasaktunigu nuilauqtuq maajji 31, 1999mi.
-----
For example, Mr. Speaker, 25% of the board's allocated budget goes into travel, medical travel, and that accounts for almost 20% of the budget deficit that came forward as of March 31, 1999.
*************** 
parnautiqaraluaqtugut uqaqtii, avittuqsimajut kaanturaktitsisimavut qaujigiaqtit kiinaujalirijiillu kanatami qimirruqullugit aanniaqtulirinikkut ajuqsaqtulirinikkullu ingirraniujunit imannak turaanganiqaqtumik atuagaliurutauniarluni tamanna ingirraniuqattaqtuq.
-----
We do have a plan in place Mr. Speaker, the department has contracted Consulting and Audit Canada to review the status of medical and social services travel with the objective of proposing a new policy for that travel.
***************

-----
There are some economies of scale Mr. Speaker, on medical travel that we are working with within the three regions that we will be able to bring forward after April 1, with the integration of the health boards.

-----
I would also like to thank the working group who invested a great deal of time and effort and who produced a document that is workable and reflective of the new north and that creates a truly made in Nunavut solution to one component of our economic development strategy.
*************** 
uqausiqakainnarumajunga qanuq taanna atuagaq aulattijjutiqarmangaaq.

I would like to reflect for a moment on what the driving force of this policy is.

-----
Article 24 of the Nunavut Land Claims Agreement, recognises that economic development will be one of the true measures of success of the Nunavut Land Claim and it is imperative that local businesses have the opportunity to share in the material success of the creation of Nunavut.
*************** 
atuagaq maliktiarmat maliktaujariaqaqtumik.

This policy meets those criteria.

-----
Article 24 reminds us that there must be increased participation and improved capacity of Inuit firms to compete for business opportunities and government contracts.
***************

This policy achieves this objective.

Similarly in the Bathurst Mandate, two of the key goals are to encourage self-reliance and to build healthy communities.
*************** 
namminiqaqtunut ikajuutinut atuagaq kajusijjutaujunnarnirmat turaagarijaujunut.
-----
The business incentive policy is a vehicle to reach those objectives.
*************** 
taanna atuagaq nunavummiut ningiqtaqataujunnaqullugit gavamakkut kiinajaqutinginnik atuqtaujumulimaanik nunavummi.
-----
This policy ensures that the residents of Nunavut share and benefit from every public dollar spent in this territory.
***************

That's what we're trying to do.
***************

*************** 
ilitarijausimalni kajusittiaqsininganut, atuagaq naliannutuinnaarunnariaqaqtuni ammalu aaqqigiarutaujariaqarmat atuqtaujariaqaqtunut kiggatuqtanginnut.
-----
It is not static. It recognises that to be successful, a policy has to be flexible and responsive to the needs of the people it serves.
***************

This policy does just that including an ongoing review process that meets not only the needs of the government but also the business community, while implementing both the spirit and intent of the land claim agreement.
***************

Mr. Speaker, I feel this is necessary as a result of the tone of some of the comments being published outside of this house, and in response to the concerns raised recently by my fellow members.
***************

This is why I rise today.

Of course some of the more detailed information will be provided in a proper format to those members who have specific questions.
*************** 
taanna ajurnaniqpauqataulaurmat isumaliurutiginasuaqtugu tamanna ursualungmut akitturiarutausimajuq.
-----
One of the hardest decisions we've had to make recently involved this price increase.
*************** 
uqaqtii, taimanna kiinaujalirijikkut ministangat uqalaurmat, ursualuup akitturiaqtauninga akikinniqpaunasuaqtukkut akitturiaqtaminiuniraqtuniuk.
-----
In fact, Mr. Speaker, as the Minister of Finance previously stated, the increase was kept to the absolute minimum.
*************** 
uqarumajunga tamatuma akitturiaqtauninga aipparilitainnarmagu taimannganit 1991-mi akituriaqtaulauqsimangmat.
-----
I would like to point out that this is only the second price increase since 1991.
***************

-----
Mr. Speaker, I think we have done a good job at holding the prices steady while the market has been going up and down for a number of years.
*************** 
aulagunnarasuarlugit akingita quvvaqtarningata, atuqattarakta kiinaujanik akigijaujunut naliqqariilirutiginasuaqpatattinnik unurniqpaanut tikiumajunut $5-milianut.
-----
In order to be able to control price fluctuations, we used a price stabilisation fund with a maximum dollar value of 5 million dollars.
*************** 
uqaqtii, tamanna imanna tukiqaqtuq arraaguqattiangikkutta asiujijariaqarutta 5-milianik attuiluanngilluta akigijaujunik aturunsaqtugut.
-----
Mr. Speaker, this means that in a bad year we can, if necessary, absorb losses of up to 5 million dollars without a massive impact on pricing.
*************** 
kisianili, mamiannaqtuugaluaq akiliraksavut qattiinnaruriaraluaqtillugit aulattijjutinut amma makiumainnarutinut ammalu akitujuutinut, akiliksat tamatumunga piruqpallianginnallaringmat.
-----
Unfortunately, even with expenditure reduction in Operations & Maintenance and Capital, the deficit in this fund has been growing steadily.
*************** 
taimanna pijjutiqaqtuq akikitittigasukkaluamut akikinniqpaakkut ikajuuttitigut akiliriaqaqnutut tikiumajunut $9.6-milianik.
-----
This is a direct result of trying to hold the line on prices while subsidising all products up to a total of 9.6 million dollars.
*************** 
uqaqtii, akingit tamaani arraaguptinni katitaungmata, aksururnallariktukkut isumaliurutiqariaqalilauqtugut.
-----
Mr. Speaker, when the costs for this year were totalled, we were faced with having to make a very difficult decision.
*************** 
atuni 1-taala kiinaujat ikajuutauniarluni akiliriaqaqnutut piiqtaujariaqaqpangmata asinginnut pilirijjutaugajalauqtunik.
-----
Every dollar used to subsidise these costs has to be removed from other potential programs.
*************** 
attanaqtumiilaurmigapta ungataanuutuinnariaksatinnik akikitittinanuaqtuta aaqqiksuilluta, unurniqpaat atuqunnaqtatta $5-milian.
-----
We were also in danger of exceeding the maximum allowable dollar value in the price stabilisation fund, a maximum of 5 million dollars.
*************** 
taaksuma unurningata ungataanuuriaqannginatta.
-----
We are not allowed to exceed this maximum amount.
*************** 
uqaqtii, tusaqtittijumajunga urlualuktaqtaukkannilauqtinnagit amiakkunga ursualuup angijuuvanngimmat.
-----
Mr. Speaker, I would like to provide some information on points of interest.

-----
There is a minimal product left in inventory just prior to the fuel delivery. When the prices were calculated for this increase, they were averaged over all the fuel received in addition to the remaining fuel left in inventory.
*************** 
taimanna akikturiarijunnaqsivaktugut siangmatiqtugut nunalilimaanut ursualungmut.
-----
This allows us to spread the higher costs over all the fuel.
*************** 
akinginnik aaqqiksiqattarukta nutaanginnarmut ursualungmut, akitturiarijjutivut unurniqsaullariqattarajaqtuq nutaanginnarmut maligasuaraluarukta.
-----
If we calculated the price only on the new fuel received, we would have required a larger increase to cover the cost of only that fuel.
*************** 
taimanna atuqtatigut akikinniqsaujjutaujunnapangmat.
-----
This helped keep the increase as low as possible.
*************** 
taimali isumanasuarnirutta akikinnisakkut ikajuutikarumanasualirnirutta taakkua kiinaujat ikajuutigikkannirumajavut piiqsijjutigijariaqarajaraktigut kiinaujanik asinginnut aturajalauqtuugaluanik.
-----
If we were to consider providing any kind of additional subsidies, these additional funds would end up coming from other programs.
*************** 
taimanna tavva isumagijara pijjutiqalauqpuq ikajuutaujut angunasuktinut ilagijaujunut nunavut tunngavikkutigut kiinaujaqaqtitauqattarunnarmangaata.
-----
This is one of the reasons I had suggested the possibility of assistance for registered hunters through an NTI funding program.
*************** 
uqaqtii, ursualungmut amma ingirrajjutinut akilirialivut akitturiaqsimalirmata 33.3-pusanmik kingulliqpaamit umiarjuaqtaugapta.
-----
Mr. Speaker, our fuel and transportation costs have risen an average of 33.3% for the recent sealift season.
*************** 
akitturiarijjutigijariaqaliqpakattigu pusantigut akitturiarutaujut.
-----
We are forced to pass on a percentage of this increase.
*************** 
asiujisimangmigapta taimannganit nunatsiaq avilauqtillugu pijjutigillugu mikijuutauniqsanik niuviqattariaqalirnittigut ursualungmik.
-----
We have also experienced a loss as a result of division due to the smaller quantities of fuel we now purchase.
*************** 
anginiqsautillugit akikinniqsaungmata.
-----
The larger the volume the lower the overall cost.
*************** 
mikijuutauniqsamik ursualuktaariaqarniriliqtavut ammalu asinginnik pijjutiqaqtuta miksaaniilauqtuq 20-milian liitasmik.
-----
The decrease in volume as a result of this and other factors was approximately 20 million litres.
***************

-----
Finally Mr. Speaker, in addition to the price subsidies we are already providing, our own costs have risen as we are one of the major consumers of petroleum products through our departments.
*************** 
tamatuma akitturiaqsimaninga attuisimangmingmat aulattijjutiktinnik kiinaujanik.
-----
This increase has also impacted our operating funds.
***************

-----
Mr. Speaker, I am very pleased that the members brought this topic forward in this house.

This gives us the opportunity to respond directly to our constituents.

-----
In the future Mr. Speaker, as indicated by my Honourable colleague, the Finance Minister, we're completing a review of our entire petroleum products operation.
*************** 
tusaqtinniaqtavut gavamakkut kiinaujalirinirmut aulatsijingita katimajingit juunimi, 2000.
-----
We will be providing the information to the Financial Management Board in June of 2000.

-----
Mr. Speaker, we intend to go even further in order to determine whether there are changes we can make that will help us rein in some of these expenses.
*************** 
mamianaqtuugaluaq qaujimajariaqarakta akiliqattariaqaqtavut maligiaqaqpamingmat silarjuarmi akiliqsuutaujariaqaqpaktunik.
-----
Unfortunately we must also be aware that a large part of our cost structure is subject to the same pressure as the rest of the world.
*************** 
tamanna uqausirijara ursualuup akinga silarjuarmi akigijauvaktumut.
-----
That is the price of oil in our world market.

Mr. Speaker, I hope this statement helps clarify a few of the many pressures facing the petroleum products division in the area of pricing.

-----
Mr. Speaker, I would like to take this opportunity to update members of this assembly on the status of the government's intent to create P3 Health Care Projects across Nunavut. As I've indicated previously in this assembly, the Government of Nunavut recognises that the P3 process represents a viable financing option for delivering large projects.
*************** 
uqaqtii, sanajaujjutingit unuqtunut akitujuutinut kiinaujaqutiktigut aksururnarmarinniarmat gavamakkut kiinaujaqutinginnut kigliqaqtunut.

Among other things this includes major infrastructure requirements for the Government of Nunavut such as health care facilities.

-----
Mr. Speaker, construction of large capital intensive projects through conventional financing would impose a significant burden on the limited resources of our government. Financing these projects through the P3 process allows the GN to free up much needed capital funding for other government initiatives.
***************

-----
Mr. Speaker, as this assembly is aware, on April 1st of 99, the Government of Nunavut inherited four potential health care projects from the GNWT.
*************** 
nutaat aanniaviksait parnairutaulaurmata kangiq&inirmut, arvianut, iqalungnut ammalu iqaluttuutsiarmut.
-----
New health care facilities were planned for Rankin Inlet, Arviat, Iqaluit and Cambridge Bay.

-----
In May of last year, we successfully concluded negotiations that allowed us to enter into an agreement with the Arviat Development Corporation for the construction, leasing, and maintenance of the Arviat Health Centre.
*************** 
sanajaunirinialauqtanga nutaap aanniaviup nuqqaqtitalaurmat aagiismi ursualungmik nanisijuqarmat suruluisimajumik igluliurviunialauqtumi.

Construction on a new health centre was stopped in August when fuel oil was found to have contaminated the excavation site.

-----
The contractor commenced cleaning operations until winter weather conditions prevented any further soil removal for site restoration. Ninety percent of the contaminated soil has been removed to date and construction of the new facility will recommence in the spring.

It is expected that it will be completed this November.

In May 1999, the Financial Management Board approved a project to prepare a set of policies and procedures to guide the government in the development, award, and management of P3 projects.

The Financial Management Board also approved an initiative to undertake a separate but related study to evaluate the status quo of the other P3 projects.

Our new government in some cases did not have the opportunity to approve the functional plans, establish P3 management teams nor to develop business cases for proceeding with these new health care projects under a P3 arrangement.

Mr. Speaker, despite these difficulties, the Government of Nunavut has taken action to ensure that all outstanding issues related to the preliminary planning process are resolved.

In December 1999, the Department of Finance and Administration re-opened discussions with the Sakku Investments Corporation, Qikiqtaaluk Corporation and the Kitikmeot Corporation.

This allowed us to establish service contracts to complete the remaining work and bring these projects to the stage where informed decisions can be made to proceed or not to proceed with the construction of these facilities.

When we met with municipal leaders and administrators in November 1999 community leaders requested that the government advance its municipal operating contribution on a quarterly basis.

-----
It was the position of the GNWT that monthly contributions were more effective because among other things it gave the territorial government greater control over many community finances.

For their part the Hamlets have always maintained the monthly contributions are cumbersome to the communities, the lag between the day they forward their financial reports and the day they receive advances often puts them in a tight financial position.

The aims of the conference are to establish on-going communications between the operators and the Department of Justice so that information can be easily obtained and shared, increase knowledge of the different ways the camps and houses implement their programs, identify future training needs, contribute to the revisions and the development of procedures for getting open custody facilities.

Yesterday, a class of grade 5 students at Nakasuk School in Iqaluit had to be cancelled because no substitute teacher was available.

-----
The principal of Nakasuk school tells me that one of the reasons for their increasing difficulty in getting substitute teachers in Iqaluit is that substitute teachers are unwilling to take the responsibility for the large classrooms which have sadly become the norm in our schools.

My question to the minister, and I know he may at some point say there is nothing illegal or wrong about releasing that information, but I'm curious as to the fact that we haven't gone through the budget yet and we hear the Minister responsible for Housing say that she really doesn't want to deal with that issue now because it wouldn't be appropriate as far as using surplus money for housing and whatever else.

Mr. Speaker, I've always been under the impression and I think the members also here alongside me that what we discuss in caucus prior to it getting to I guess, an open public meeting, that it would be confidential and we were of the understanding that we would not release that information and that it may in some ways cause some difficulties for people.

My question is, given the fact that we're involved with the various union negotiations, does the minister have any concern that this may in itself, by releasing information, it may cause some uneasiness, even some labour strife, I guess, the fact that we're talking about 30 or 40 million dollars that may be available.

If we were to use any of this money, these unexpended funds that we project, quite frankly, to be there March 31, if we were to make commitments for that for future years and then our staffing levels were to reach higher proportionate levels, we would have to look for ways to pay back that money.

Mr. Speaker, I believe in the fall session, I could be mistaken so I won't mention which minister, indicated to me in reference to a question I asked about why we would, at that point we were only looking at I think it was approximately 10 million dollars surplus and I felt that we should probably have a lot more because of the fact that there are so many positions that have not been filled.

-----
The comment, or statement, that was made to me by the member on the other side of the House was that, well actually it can't be more because most of these positions that are not filled, the money that would normally pay for that person's salary is being used to pay for consultants and contractual work so that we can have some capacity in the overall government.

-----
So, and unfortunately the Hansard here does not clearly state that, so, with that in mind can the Finance Minister tell me now that we have the projected surplus of 30-40 million dollars out in the public and in the media, what has created this possible or projected surplus.

Mr. Speaker, the member is correct, during the mid-year fiscal update we projected at that time approximately 12 million dollars and since then it has been revised.

-----
Given that the main reason, Mr. Speaker, is that we have financial reports that come from all departments of government through Finance and we co-ordinate the summary of that information and make our projections based on that, I can tell you, quite frankly, right now that if we base all of our financial projections on what departments advise us they were going to spend that we would not be in a surplus situation.

-----
Given all the departments saying that they are going to be fully staffed up to the levels that they expected this year and expending funds throughout their programs again on what their expectations were, our budget would be right on, and in fact slightly over-budget.

-----
So, the Department of Finance, quite frankly, has had to take another look at the information that was being provided by departments to see whether or not they were realistic and that took a considerable amount of time and that's why so late in the year we can have a better estimate of actual government expenditures, Mr. Speaker.

We were talking about the 1999-2000 budget, I was wondering, it says we have, the Minister of Finance has indicated we have a 30-40 million dollar surplus, I would imagine that given the vacancy levels throughout government there are some substantial surpluses in every department including Housing.

Mr. Speaker, I would like to ask the Minister if she has any plans of making a submission to re-allocate some of this year's funds from the department that haven't been expended to go towards some of the operating and maintenance functions provided at the local level through the LHO's.

I think this is partly because when Nunavut was created on April 1, 1999, the new Nunavut government took over from the old Northwest Territories government.
***************

We were very happy to see the creation of Nunavut;

It was based on the budget of the government of the Northwest Territories. Right now the government of Nunavut has put together a budget which will be tabled next month, but this budget is not based on the five-year plan.

Every spring, there have been serious leaks in the roof when it starts to melt.

When the roof leaks, as it does every spring, the lighting and electrical wiring is damaged by water, the Hamlet must close the building when there is water in the electrical system and lights.

Mr. Speaker, the building has to be closed down because of problems with the sewage stink and plumbing in the winter when it is cold, and the building has to be closed down because of problems with the electrical wiring and lighting on the roof in the spring when it melts.

Our health centre staff and space will be under even greater pressure to meet the needs of our growing population and especially now that we have a resident doctor in Pond Inlet who is serving the high Arctic we believe that consideration should be given to having some people from high Arctic communities sent to Pond Inlet for treatment in emergencies rather than the long distance and time it takes to send them to the regional hospital in Iqaluit.

Mr. Chairman, the Department of Finance and Administration is responsible for the loan authorization act, that is why my appearance before the committee today and I didn't get into opening comments because I thought the second reading, principles of the bill outlined it clearly but if the members want...just to say that this is just an annual bill that is required to go before the Assembly because of the fact the Government is asking for the authority to be able to lend to municipalities in the course of the year.

If we are going to deal with the municipalities, the Hamlets, in order for them to use this loan authorization, for example, the Hamlets, even though they have some sort of funding given to them, they are always short of funding for of capital items.

Mr. Chairman, the spending limit requested under this act is up to five million dollars but I would like to say that it isn't for municipalities for specific capital projects. This issue, unless it is a tax-based municipality, and the only one of course that would qualify in that situation would be Iqaluit, more than likely it would be in a situation where there are extraordinary needs of a Hamlet such as the situation in Clyde River.

I would like to state there are some stringent guidelines in respect of lending. It is just not given for any reason whatsoever.

The criteria has been indicated in the past - there have to be repayment terms identified, assessment of repayment ability, security issues are looked at, there has to be an approved bylaw by the municipality, established credit criteria and it has to be in conformance with the Cities, Towns and Villages Act. So those are the criteria that surround the ability to be able to lend under this loan authorization act, Mr. Chairman.

Mr. Chairman, I would anticipate that the past practice has been that through the SAOs and the municipalities which have the Community Government and Transportation regional staff working with them on a monthly basis, if not quarterly, to be current with their fiscal situation. Having said that, then they would be on top of the circumstances surrounding each municipality throughout Nunavut and be able to identify along with the administration of the municipalities whether or not there would be any anticipated needs for financial commitments to be made under this act.

-----
The Ikuma report was commissioned to look at various options available to the Nunavut Government to provide electrical power to Nunavummiut.
*************** 
marruuliqqangavuq unikkaaliaminiq:
-----
The two main parts of the report describe:
*************** 
1) naliirarutaujunnaqtut nunavut ikummaqqusilirijikkunnut takunnaqtugit akaunngiliurutiit amma atuutiqattiarutiujut;
-----
The possible structures for a Nunavut Power Corporation with an analysis of the pros and cons of each structure;
*************** 
2) maligatuqaukujuq amma atuagarijaujut pillugu ikummaqqusilirinirmut akiujunut amma ikajuutiuvattut isumaliurutaugiaqaqtut inunnut amma nunavummi gavamakkunnut.
-----
General policy and regulatory issues associated with power rates and subsidies that must by decided by the people and the Government of Nunavut.
***************

That's us Mr. Chairman.
*************** 
pijjutigillugu aaqqissimanirijanga ikuma unikkaaliangusimajuup malippuq gavamatuqakkut kuapuraisanganni pijjutiqaqtuni amisunit ajjigiinngittunit.
-----
In regards to the actual structure the Ikuma report favours the Crown Corporation Model for a number of reasons.
*************** 
taakkuali pijjutiujut ukuanguvut issivautaaq: - pijuminarniq - tamanna saqqiriiqsimavuq katimavijjuarmi - titiraqsimajukkuuqsimallunilu
-----
Those reasons are, Mr. Chairman:

- naliiraarnaniqsauluni - aaqqiijunnaqtutik namminiq maligariniaqtanginnit namminiqarnirmut attuaniqarluni isulivviqatuinnangilluni gavamakkut maligarijanginnit.
-----
Simplicity - it already exists in Legislation - we have it on paperMore Flexibility - it can create its own policies to meet business needs rather than being limited to general Government policy.

-----
Of course the Corporation is a Corporate entity on its ownBetter cost Tracking - it is better able to keep track of utility related revenues and costs isolated from hidden subsidiesMore Businesslike - it can focus on the utility business rather than general Government matters and Mr. Chairman most important of all:A greater balance between business and social considerations, ability to meet social needs while balancing utility businesslike operations.

-----
Mr. Chairman, based on these findings and with your support, we are now taking steps to set up a crown corporation and I will be pleased to answer any questions about the Ikuma report and the assumptions used to draw its conclusions tomorrow in the Committee of the Whole when we further debate the Ikuma report.

-----
In regards to the policy on the regulatory issues associated with the setting up of any power utility in Nunavut, the report provides an overview of current rate setting structure subsidy programs but does not provide specific recommendations on these matters because the Ikuma working group was not mandated, Mr. Chairman to do that. However, based on their analysis, the report does question the efficiency and the effectiveness of the current process of regular rates through a public utility board.
***************

-----
Both the rate setting structures and the subsidy issue require further work before any decisions can be made. To make these decisions will also require input - input from the MLAs, the communities, you Mr. Chairman and other stake holders to determine the balance between the Nunavut Power Corporations need to operate as a for-profit business enterprise or remain sensitive to the social economic needs in the territory.
***************

Where will they be located to ensure that the NPC will be fully operational by April 1, 2001What will power costs in each community and how will their rates be regulatedWhat options should the Nunavut Power Corporation pursue for providing power in the future - Mr. Chairman that is, what new initiatives and alternatives for improving service and reducing the cost of electrical energy supply would make sense in Nunavut.

-----
The President's position, and I want to make this clear, Mr. Chairman, during my presentation to the Standing Committee of Government Operations, the committee pointed out very strongly that they weren't satisfied that the position for the president of the Nunavut Power Corporation had not been advertised in the North.
***************

Indeed, Mr. Chairman it had not been advertised in the South either.

-----
We had to hire a special firm that is used for finding presidents and so on of utilities in Canada and that was the route that we took, but Mr. Chairman, at the recommendation of the Standing Committee we have now advertised the position of the President for the Nunavut Power Corporation in Nunavut -in the North and in the South.
***************

We followed up on that recommendation from the Standing Committee.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker.

Mr. Speaker I rise today on a point of privilege.

-----
Mr. Speaker, a reporter for the Rankin Inlet bureau of the CBC radio inaccurately represented yesterday's question period, during this morning's news broadcast.
*************** 
taanna pivalliajuliriji unikkaaqqaummat maligaliuqtinut tallimanut apiqsuqtaulaurnaraqtunga nalauksaaqtaujunit kiinaujait amiakkuninginnit.
-----
Specifically, this reporter in her news story reported that five members of this Assembly questioned me on the estimated budget surplus.
*************** 
uqaqtii, nalunaiqsijumajunga naalagauqatinnut marruinnaannuk maligaliuqtiinnut apiqsuqtaulaurama tamatuminnga pimmarialuujumik.
-----
Mr. Speaker, I would like to clarify to my honourable colleagues that only two members of this Assembly questioned me on this very important matter.
*************** 
ammalu taanna pivalliajuliriji uqaqtuni imannak, "amisut quaqsaalauqput tusalaurningimmata sivuniani amiakkujut anginingannik".
-----
Furthermore this reporter stated, and I quote, "Many were upset that they hadn't heard about the size of the surplus earlier" unquote.
*************** 
uqaqtii, naalagauqatikka iqqaumagajaqput nalauksaaqtaujuq amiakkunginnit tusaqtitaulaurmata taqqitta iluanikkanniq.
-----
Mr. Speaker, my colleagues will recall the subject of an estimated surplus was disclosed to my colleagues earlier this month.
***************

-----
During yesterday's question period my honourable colleague for Arviat accurately noted this fact.

-----
However Mr. Speaker, the CBC reporter failed to reflect this accuracy in her story, but chose instead to report that members had not previously been informed of this matter.
*************** 
uqaqtii una uqaqtaujuq naalagauqatikka quaqsaangalaurmata numaasuktutillu suliniqanngimmat qanulimaaq pilauqtunit uvani katimavimmi.
-----
Mr. Speaker, the notion that my colleagues were frustrated and upset by this does not in any way accurately reflect the proceedings of this chamber.
***************

Mr. Speaker, when media misrepresents the proceedings of this House it is something that all members of the House should be concerned about.
***************

It is a violation of parliamentary privilege that all members of this Assembly take seriously.

-----
Mr. Speaker, this morning's distortions of the truth as reported by the CBC radio are irresponsible, unacceptable and do not respect this House, or the members of this House that work diligently to serve the people of Nunavut.

Mr. Speaker, I wish to share with members of the legislature an important workshop hosted by our Early Childhood and School Services Division in Arviat, from February 1 to 3, 2000.

-----
The workshop was an initial opportunity for the Early Childhood and School Services Division program staff to meet with staff from the regional board offices, for instance, in the three different regions Kivalliq, Keewatin and Kitikmeot.

-----
With July 1, 2000 approaching, the focus of this workshop revolved around looking at how these different staff will work collaboratively and effectively to ensure Inuit Qaujimajatuqangit will be the basis for what we do in schools to provide the best education for the students of Nunavut.
***************

The workshop began with the process of creating a strong team, one that can work together and be creative, productive for the benefit of Nunavut students.

-----
As Henry Isuaqnik, an elder on staff in Arviat noted, Inuit means people, thus enforcing the necessity for participants to see themselves as an important part of the team bringing about this change.

Mr. Speaker, as members know, Taloyoak is located on the Boothia Peninsula, Ittuarturvik is located on the coast on the other side of the Peninsula, so to get to Ittuarturvik from Taloyoak residents must first take a trail about three miles to Middle Lake, cross the lakes, further through shallow rapids, then continue travelling on the river.

As Inuit people when we are not allowed to harvest Bowhead whales or hunt killer whales, and I know that we won't be harvesting killer whales because they are hindering our subsistence food, at least we should be able to harvest killer whales once or twice a year.

-----
There is an understanding that there will be some requirement to offset that deficit from current years unexpended dollars. That was a decision that was made in respect of those deficits, that at some point before the close of the books, the Government of Nunavut's financial statements by March 31st 2000, that that issue of the outstanding deficits of the three health boards will be resolved.

As members may recall, I did say also because of the fact that that was a prior to March 31st 1999, liability, I did state at that time for the current operating year the 1999/2000 fiscal year that we're still in right now, that we have authorized 5 million dollars.

Mr. Speaker, the presentation was excellent, I might add the presenter, Mr. Wilson, went into some depth on some of the technical as well as some of the logistic concerns with the power grid and the line, as well as, I guess from this Government's point of view some of the major financial implications.

I was asking the next step in the process and I am glad to hear, it's nice to hear that you did have a private meeting or consultation with the minister and his staff, but by the same token, I believe that the people that were at the presentation, the Keewatin Mayors and other guests would have liked to have asked questions to yourself and others regarding some of the concerns they had in reference to some communities being bypassed or not included in this report.

-----
So, Mr. Speaker, my final comment to the Minister responsible for the Power Corporation is, whether it is 200 million dollars or 600 million dollars, I think the project deserves to be taken on as a new initiative on the part of this government, I think we have to be proactive, take the lead, find out whether it is feasible and what the pros and cons are for the project.

-----
We're almost completed one year in our mandate, Mr. Speaker, and a concern was brought up in my community about drug and alcohol treatment centres.
*************** 
minista kamagijalik parnaksimajaqarmangaat matuiqsilaariaksaq ajuliqsimajunut panirsiivingmit.
-----
Does the minister responsible have any kinds of plans to open up any new treatment centres.
*************** 
suuqaimma, itaqariaqarasugigakkuli, isumagijakkut, tamakkuninga aangajaarnaqtunut amma imialungmut ajuliqsimajunut mamisarvingmit nunavuumit.
-----
Because I think that there is, in my feeling, a need for these drug and alcohol and healing centres in Nunavut.

Hon. Ed Picco:
*************** 
qujannamiik uqaqtii.
-----
Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
*************** 
uqaqtii, tamanna tusaruminaqpuq pillariullunilu. 1992-ngutillugu, matuiqsilauqsimalluta panirsiivingmit nunavuumit.
-----
Mr. Speaker, this is a very interesting and serious topic. In 1992, we opened up the first residential treatment centre in Nunavut.
*************** 
taissumaniutillugu niriulauqsimalluta 216-nut atuqtauniarasugillutigut paniqsiriaqtuqtunut arraagutamaat tamaani nunavuumit.
-----
At that time we projected that 216 people would need residential treatment each year at that centre here in Nunavut.
*************** 
pilattaaqtutigut, uqaqtii, takunata 216-nit paniqsiriaqtuqtunit, 7-nginnarnit takulauqsimalluta 1994-mit, 34-nit 1995-ngutillugu, 57-nit 1996-ngutillugu, 25-nit 1997-ngutillugu amma 21-nit 1998-ngutillugu.
-----
In actuality, Mr. Speaker, instead of seeing 216 clients, we saw 7 clients in 1994, 34 in 1995, 57 in 1996, 25 in 1997 and 21 in 1998.
*************** 
kati&&utik 119-tuinnait arraagunut tisamanut.
-----
A total of 119 patients in four years.
*************** 
uqaqtii, akinga taissuma 1998/99-mit, uvannut saqqitaulauqsimajuq $640,000.00-ngulauqsimalluni, uqaqtii.
-----
Mr. Speaker, the cost of that program in 1998/99, according to the figures presented to me was 640 thousand dollars, Mr. Speaker.
*************** 
pinasuktugut gavamaulluta qaujinasukpugut namunngariaqarmangaata aturunnaqtuqutigijavut.
-----
So what we're trying to do as a government is to analyse where we should be putting our resources.
*************** 
aturunnaqtuqutigijavut nunalingnut ilijariaqaqpavut aaqqiksinasugluta atuqtauniaqtunit aangajaarnaqtunut imialungmullu inuusilirijinuut nunalingni uvvaluunniit atungaarlutigut igluliurutautillutigut asuillaak saqqittilitainnarluta qanuiliuviugajarninginnit taikunga.
-----
Should we be putting our resources into the community and developing the capacity within the drug and alcohol counsellors at the community level or should we be putting them into building a facility and then putting programs in that facility.
*************** 
tamajja apiqqusiuvuq uqaqtii, tamassumingalu qaugsaaqaqpugut maannaujuq.
-----
So that's the question Mr. Speaker, we're doing a review of that right now.
*************** 
amisuuniqsait matuingattaqtunit matusimaulirmata ukiuqtaqtumi, uvanga tukisimajakkut uqaqtii.
-----
Most residential treatment centres in my understanding Mr. Speaker, in the north are closed.
*************** 
juukaanmi paniqsirvik matusimavuq, nunatsiarmi paniqsirvik matusimavuq ammalu niaqunnguumiittuq matusimagilluni.
-----
In the Yukon, the treatment centre is closed, the Northwest Territory treatment centre is closed, and indeed Mr. Speaker, the residential treatment centre in Apex is also closed.
*************** 
taimaittutuunngilagut tumatumuuna, kisianili uqaqtii uqarumavunga kinatuinnaq nunavummiuq ikajuqtaujumajuq ikajuqtaujunnaqtiaqpuq ammalu ikajuqtauqattaqput uqaqsimammata titiqqaqutikka taikkua aullaqtitaugialiit aullaqtitauvapput nunavut silataanut.
-----
So we're not unique in that aspect, but Mr. Speaker, let me say, if someone in Nunavut needs residential treatment, then they will receive it and they have been receiving it and according to my notes again, we have been sending people out of the territory.
***************

-----
That answers part of my question and in our communities and I'm sure the honourable minister has lived in some of them, that when you have an individual that has an addiction problem whether it's alcohol, drugs, or whatever other inhalant, sure we have capable, very capable, drug and alcohol workers in our communities.
*************** 
kisianili ilaannikkut ajuliqattaqput upagutiqattatuinnatillugu ikajuutiqarunniiqtutik pijitsirutaugaluat.

But sometimes the individual is in circumstances where an outpatient service does not provide the type of care they need.

-----
In some cases I would think that the person would have to be removed from the community to get away from the peer pressure of the alcohol, drugs and inhalants.
*************** 
ministaujuq kiurataaqpuq tisamauniraqtunigit ikajuqtaujaqtuqsimajut qallunaat nunangannut.

The minister replied to me that there are four people in the south.

-----
To me, that is going against what we were talking about when we were creating Nunavut, was taking care of our own and looking after each other, self-reliance and everything like that.

Does the minister foresee in the very near future having an institution or a little place that people can go to and rehabilitate rather than sending them south.

Mr. Speaker, this has been a very interesting topic because there are different types of addictions.

Mr. Speaker, there's the psychological and physical addiction to a certain drug or problem, for example, alcohol.
***************

For those with true addictions Mr. Speaker, the option of residential treatment is one that we've been looking at in the Apex Treatment Centre.
*************** 
kisianili ikajurniarutta inummit uqaqtii, tainna inuk naukkulimaaq ikajuriaqarajaqpavut.

But if we're going to treat people Mr. Speaker, we have to treat the whole person.

Taking Ed Picco out of Hall Beach or Baker Lake and putting him in Iqaluit and then treating him for six weeks has been found not to work.
***************

That's why those treatment centres in those other communities have closed.

If the member is asking me is this government contemplating opening up treatment centres in all of our communities, the answer would be no.

-----
What we will do Mr. Speaker, is build a capacity which we are trying to do right now in each of our communities to be able to treat people with the different types of addictions that they have.
*************** 
maligaliuqtiuqataujuq sulivuq, ilangit ajulirutiujut aanngajaarnaqtumuungavut, imialummuuallutit ilangit asingillu.

The member is right, some of those are drug addictions, and some of those are alcohol addictions and so on.

Each addiction is different, they can all be treated differently, the different types of substance abuse that they're having trouble with.

-----
I recognise that the honourable minister is dealing with an addiction himself in regards to tobacco and he is doing very well and I'd hate to see us have to relocate him south some place which would leave a big void there with the Health Department.
*************** 
uqannguarunniirlunga, uqaqtii, apiqqusirijarali ikajuqtauvitaqalauratta imialummut amma aanngajaarnaqtumut paniqsirvimmi niaqunnguumi uqajummijuugaluaq qattiunirmangaata ikajuqtausimaliqtut ammalu qaujimagillunga ilangit ukiuqtaqtuup kanannanganuuqtitauvattutik, suurlu jalunaimut.
-----
On a more serious note Mr. Speaker, the whole gist of my question here is we had a drug and alcohol treatment centre at Apex and I know he gave me the numbers but I also know there were people dispatched over to the west, such as Yellowknife.
*************** 
kisianili uqausiqaqtilluta inuit qaujimajatuqanginnit inuit aullaqtigiaqaqattarniarmangaaqtigu nunaligijanginnit, tamannali piunasuginnginakku aullatittiqattarniq qallunaat nunangannut pillugu ikajuqtiginasuttaraluangit atuutiqanngituinnariaqarmata pillugu inuuqatiminnut ikajuqtaunginninga ilissimanniqpata ikajuqtauqattaliniulutik inuuqatiminut aanngajaarnaqtumut amma imialummut pijjutiqaqtunit.
-----
But the thing is we're talking about Inuit Qaujimajatuqangit and if we're going to take people away from their home communities, I don't think it's a good idea to send them south because they're not going to have the people around them that probably can help them deal with their problems as good as Inuit people if they're trained to deal with their own people in drug and alcohol related issues.
*************** 
uqautigiarumavara ministaujuq qaujisariakkanniqullugu tussirautiginiaqtanganut ammalu tukisigumallunga tussirautilianga qanga takugunnarajarmangaatigu.

So I encourage the minister to re-evaluate what he's doing in his proposal and when can we expect to see it.

Mr. Speaker, 119 people in roughly four years who went through the treatment centre in Apex.
***************

The average cost per person at that time was 50 thousand dollars for a six-week treatment.
***************

-----
Mr. Speaker that equates to 6 million dollars over that four year period.
***************

-----
So the member is right, one of the things that we're trying to do as a department is to look at the expenditure of the 6 million dollars to see if that money was spent wisely and could we take that 6 million dollars, Mr. Speaker, Mr. McLean, take that 6 million dollars and put it back into the community and train our drug and alcohol counsellors, train our social workers to deal with those types of addictions in our communities.

-----
I agree with the member, I don't agree with taking someone out of their community and sending them south and that's why I'm opposed I guess in certain ways to opening up the treatment centre.
***************

-----
Because over the last few years, the studies have shown that if you take a person out of their community and away from their family, and providing that residency treatment, it doesn't work.
***************

Because they relapse and that person has to go back to that same environment.

In this reply to the Commissioner's Address I want to first turn to some of the very important issues I promised to work on during my campaign.
*************** 
ilagijanga uqausirivalauqtarma saqqiigiakkannirniq iqqanaijaanit angillivallianinganut nunaqutigijara.
-----
One of the key issues I spoke about was the need to create more jobs for the growing population of my community.
***************

-----
Decentralization of Government of Nunavut jobs in Baker Lake.

When I was running for office, I knew that the Inuit leaders and the Interim Commissioner had committed to the decentralization of jobs in Nunavut.

I promised to work to ensure that some of these decentralized jobs came to Baker Lake where unemployment is very, very high.
*************** 
pinasuagarijarali saqqiituinnangillutik iqqanaijaassanit qamaniqtuarmi iqqanaijaliqtittisinnaarumallunga qamaniqtuarmiunit.

My goal is not only to have these jobs created in Baker Lake but to have these jobs filled by the people of Baker Lake as well.

-----
In that connection, I very much welcomed the Premier's statement on the opening day of this Rankin Inlet session that the decentralization plans of the Government of Nunavut will also include funds to provide training where the capacity may still need to be developed in a community to ensure that the new jobs go to local people.

-----
I was also very pleased when the Premier wrote in his letter to the Mayor of Baker Lake on February 11, 2000, that one of the important benefits of decentralization for communities is the training that will be provided for Nunavummiut.
***************

So I am very pleased that 4 out of the 6 jobs of Sport Nunavut are held by local residents of Baker Lake and that the information technology position established by the Department of Public Works in Baker Lake has been filled by Brian Putnak following completion of his training in a specialised field.

This should be done in full consultation with those affected representatives of employers and workers who contribute to the Workers' Compensation Board and who benefit most from its existence.

Outpost camps, alternatives to jail and another important issue I spoke about in my campaign was the strong concern of my constituents that young and first time offenders who are in jail are not being helped to get better so they do not get into trouble again.

The elders in Baker Lake believe strongly that on the land programs at outpost camps can provide effective rehabilitation for certain offenders, young and first offenders and those serving the last part of their terms.

Early in my term I approached the Hon. Jack Anawak, Minister of Justice, with this idea and was very pleased to receive his support and encouragement and as a result, the Nunavut Department of Justice has been actively working with respect to community leaders in Baker Lake in establishing outpost camps as alternatives to jail.

I know that this program when it is implemented will not only prove to be a less costly alternative to warehousing our young people and putting offenders in costly jails far away from their homes, but even more important it will restore and enhance their self-esteem and pride.

Unlike tourists in other parts of Canada, who can drive in campers and largely look after themselves, tourists coming into Nunavut will support our airlines and stay in our hotels and rely on our guides and outfitters to take them out on the land.

I will have something more to say about the draft business incentive policy once it is tabled in this house, but I will want to simply say today that I think the best incentive for northern businesses to provide northern benefits is for the Government of Nunavut and NTI to provide incentives based on training and employment of northern residents.

So far the company has been respectful of the fact that their find is located on Inuit lands and that they must therefore work within the Nunavut land claim agreement to achieve a fair and mutual beneficial Inuit impacts and benefits agreement which will reflect my community's desire to benefit from their own natural resources.

I would urge our new government, to become more aware and supportive of the potential from the mining sector and once the mining developments have received approval, following careful environmental and economic review, the Inuit will also benefit through their land claim from royalties which must be paid for minerals taken out of the lands.

Mr. Chairman, going back to November and in consultation with the members and appraising the members over the past several months about what we were doing with the Ikuma Report and what we were trying to do with the Power Corporation coming from the transition agreement, a decision was brought forward because of the transition agreement that we had signed, with the creation of Nunavut, and with the agreement of the NWT Government, and the Office of the Interim Commissioner.

Having said that, Mr. Chairman, I note that, maybe I've missed it, but in the report it does not identify or ask, the criteria is not set out, to look at other alternative sources of power, for example hydro.

I'm talking about the savings that could be there if we were to look at a hydro line. So my question to the minister is that, given that the report is very detailed and in some cases very complicated, I think overall that it is a good report but there is one factor that isn't addressed, and I'm curious to why the minister did not put this in the criteria.

So, Mr. Chairman, the basic thrust of this report was to see if we needed to set up our own power corporation, or should we stay with the west.

The answer was we needed to move forward on our own power corporation, and then the report flows into what we need to do logistically and administratively to look at setting up that power corporation.

-----
Because the report is premised on should we maintain the transition agreement that Mr. O'Brien is very familiar with, that was signed off with the Government of the Northwest Territories, and the timelines being that if we didn't come to an understanding by April 1, 2000, then the transition agreement set up for the separation of the corporation east and west would be in effect.

Mr. Chairperson, this is a good report and it spells out the different options that are available to the people of Nunavut, as Mr. O'Brien has said, but the focus of the report was to see if we should have our own power corporation and should we separate from the Northwest Territories, that was the focus of the report.

There are also other technologies that are out there, and with the technologies that are moving very fast, we realize that at the present time we are held captive to outside sources for our fuel because we have to use diesel to generate our electricity, but there are also other alternatives on the marketplace other than going to an electrical line from Churchill.

Mr. Chairman, the costs the minister speaks of in regards to the hydro line, I think for the most part when we talk about 200 million dollars for the cost of a hydro line or 400 million dollars or whether we go on and say 1.2 billion dollars for a road linkage, I don't think we should be concentrating on those figures, because let's face it, those costs would have to be picked up by the Federal Government.

One last example, it is my understanding that if we wait too long the mining activities that are now coming forth whether it be the Rankin or Baker Lake areas, their needs for power, energy will be immediate and one example given to me for outside this area right here, for a mining company to build a power plant of their own it would be in excess of 40 million dollars.

Again the report, the pre-feasibility study by Manitoba Hydro has severe implications for the land claim beneficiaries, environmental assessments, if they began to do the feasibility study today for that project it would take between a year and two years to complete that study. My understanding is from my briefing last week they are looking to three to five years for construction.

So the first thing this government has to do, the Nunavut Power Corporation, once it is set up, is analyse that report from Manitoba to see what is feasible and so on.

-----
The reason why I've asked you to look at that Mr. Chairman, is because as the member knows and the Assembly knows that part of Ikuma report was to find out what level of outsourcing we would have in place and what that means is, on April 1st, 2001, would we have the capacity in Nunavut to do all the billing, invoicing, payroll, capital planning and so on.

Once the new President and CEO of the Nunavut Power Corporation is hired, then that person would be able to look at the analyses of which of the REIs we'd want to put into place and then what level of outsourcing.

So, if the member has got 1010, on the cost impact of an independent power corporation, he will see the cost there and follow along.

-----
The member then will note that we've taken all Nunavut communities and amalgamated them and averaged the cost out over a period of time and he will note then that the cost of Nunavut power, a kilowatt hour is anywhere from 41 cents to 63 cents and he will note on year five, 2005/2006, that the average cost per kilowatt hour will be 43.26 cents.
***************

qimirrunakkutsiugli qaujikkautinga 1010, naliiraaviksaq A, naasautiliqsuqsimangmata saumingaarni aviksimajumi pigiarvigisimalluniuk 1-20.
-----
When you look at note 1010, option A, there are numbers on the left-hand column that go from 1-20.
*************** 
qanuilisimanirijavut sivullingannit pingasuit titikutaaksimauqtut, 1-3, takutittisimajuq ilingnik qanutigilluaq akiliqsuittarniariaksattinnik aqqutigiinnaujaruttigut nunattiarmiukkut ikummaqqutilirinirmut timiujuq tallimanut arraagunut.
-----
What we've done is for the first three lines, 1-3, that shows you what we would be paying if we stayed with NTPC for the next five years.
*************** 
taimainninganut takujunnaqtutit arraagunginni 1-5, qu"limaangani titiqtugaqsimajumi tavvani, kiinaujaqturnirijanganik kiluvuakkut ikarramut aturluni tamanna ivvit ammalu uvanga ammalu kinakkutuinnattiat asingit inugijaujut nunavummi akiliqsuinirinajaqtangit ikumautilirinirmut.
-----
So you can see under years 1-5, across the top of that chart, the cost per kilowatt-hour that you and me and every other citizen of Nunavut would pay for power.
*************** 
kingullingit titikutaaqsimajut pigiarviqar&utik 4-15 ilagivait kiinaujaqturnirijangita tamajja nalunaiqtirijjutigilauqtavut aaqqiksur&utigut taanna ikumautimut timiujuq.
-----
The next four lines from 4-15 are some of the costs that we've identified in setting up this power corporation.
*************** 
titikutaaqsimajuq 4 nalunailitirisimajut tamainnik kiinaujaqturnirilauqsimannirmijanganik piqasiutisimalluni qimagauniku uvvalu avvutivviusimaliqtuq ikumautiliriniup timinganit katisimallutik 2 milian taalanut.
-----
Line 4 identifies all the one-time costs that include leaving or separating from the Power Corporation which totals 2 million dollars.
*************** 
taimainninganut qimirrunakkutsiuk titikutaaqsimanirijangani 4, taakkua katisimanirijangit qanigijangani 2 milina taalait.
-----
So if you look at line four, that totals roughly 2 million dollars.
*************** 
ilangit maligalirijinut ammalu qaujimatittijinut akiliutit, kiggaqtuijjutiviniujunut akiliksaujut, angajuqqaammariqarvinganut titirarvingmut kiinaujaqturningit.
-----
There are legal and consulting fees, severance liability, head office costs.
*************** 
tamarmilimaat tamakkua kiinaujaqturnirijangit angijukallangmik aktuiniqarajarmata isumagillugit tamakkua atausialuar&utik sanaliriangullarigiaqarnirilauqtangit aaqqiksuijjutiugiar&utik tamatumunga ikumautilirinirmut timiujumut kisimili sulillariktunik tamakkuninga arraagulimaamualingajumik aulattiutiuninganut kiinaujaqturnirijanga ikumautilirinirmut timiujumut, amiakkunginni piijaiviusimaliqtillugit ilanngaqtirutinginnut ajjigijunniirnirijanga tamajjallariuvuq, minisitaup piku uqausiriqqaujangagut, pikkumigijaqjuammarialugigattigut.
-----
All of these costs will have a large impact in terms of these one time activities for setting up this power corporation but even if you factor that into the annual operating costs of the power corporation, the net difference is actually, as Minister Picco had mentioned, they are very much to our favour.
*************** 
taimainnirijanganut takulugu titikutaaqsimajuq 12, ammalu qanuinnivinirijanganiglikiaq sivuningani takuguviuk titikutaaksimajumi 12 ammalu arraagumi sivullirmi, 39.54, titikutaaksimajumut 3, tamajjaullunili 39.6/kiluvuat ikarrami, ujjiriniaqtait unurniliuqsimaninga paqsantingagut ilanngariaqsimallaringniaqtuq tamatumani sivullirijangani arraagumi.
-----
So if you look at line 12, and you compare line 12 and year one, 39.54, to line 3, which is 39.61/kilowatt hour, you'll notice that the rates will actually decrease for that first year.
*************** 
angiluanngittumik kisimi ilanngariaqsimaniqarluni.
-----
Not by much but there is a decrease.
***************

-----
Year two, you look again at line 3 and you look again at line 12, and there's a difference there again of a slight increase.
*************** 
niriugijaqaqtugut tamatumunga kiinaujaqturnirijanganut ikumautiqaqtittinirmut angigligiaqsimaniarasugillugu arraaguttaraangat pijjutigillugu kiinaujaqtulualiqpalliajunut.
-----
We expect that the cost for delivering power will go up every year because of inflation.
*************** 
kiinaujaqturniqarajaqtuq pilugu asijjiutilugu aulautinik nunaliujuni uvvaluunniit kisutuinnarmik pisimajarnik.

There's going to be costs when it comes to replacing a generator in a community or what have you.

-----
There's going to be inflation costs as we go so you will notice that the numbers will go up over time but that's consistent with your regular inflation type activities.

So looking at it, then in answer to my question, the one time costs that we'll be looking at are roughly 3.8 million dollars in initial start up costs that we'll be facing.
***************

Is that correct.

-----
Of course that would be less the 2 million dollars that would be the Government of Nunavut amount and that's the balance to be amortised, those costs over five years would be 1.8 million dollars.

In a discussion with the mayors we have made it perfectly clear that these will be committees of the Hamlet and that is why I've been meeting with the mayors asking the mayors are they in a position where they want to start these committees and it's up to them at the community level, at the Hamlet level, at the local level to decide first of all who the membership should be on the committee.

For example we think that the current Health Board members would be an excellent resource at the community level and the direction that these committees take after April 1st, along with the reference work, the training, as well as some of the logistic work that we are prepared to deliver to these committees, give them better understanding, I guess and more flexibility in what decisions they take.

My question concerned the number of contracts that were issued from April 01, 1999 when we were first elected. I wonder if the minister could tell me what the status is on my request as of today.

We are in the process of finalising the list. We've had to work with each of the departments and try and find out every contract so it's taken a bit long.

Mr. Speaker, that was almost five months ago that I asked that and I realise that it's a long ordeal and in some cases complicated, but given the fact that we're four or five months past that request, the information that the Premier will report to the House, will that information include contracts up to this day.

Mr. Speaker given the fact that we're just about to debate the budget, I would assume that this information should be somewhere recorded in some form of fashion and I guess my question to the Premier is what system is in place to track what we are spending on the various contracts because if there is no system in place how do we control the budget. Thank you.

Each department is accountable for all their expenditures and they track their systems and it takes a while to get a complete list, so it's kind of difficult at times to try and compile the complete list from each of the departments.

There were two main parts of the report, and it describes number one, the possible structures for the Nunavut Power Corporation and then we tried to analyze the pros and cons of each structure.

The number two point was general policy and regulatory issues associated with power rates and subsidies that must be decided by the people and the government of Nunavut.

So in regards to the actual structure of the report the member is asking about, the report recommended that the Nunavut Government set up a Crown Corporation called the Nunavut Power Corporation and we have accepted that recommendation.

Mr. Iqaqrialu again is correct, that some of the head office functions that you see right now in Hay River, in the Hay River head office of the NWT Power Corporation, you wouldn't have those in Nunavut.

On page 26, it states that the 10 million is allotted, 10.2 million is allotted for a three year period and that this will be for the NTPC facilities in Nunavut and in the Inuktitut version it states under NTPC.

Mr. Chairman, on page 26, on the forecast of the annual capital expenditure of NTPC, it is NTPC, it is taken from their five year capital plan on the monies they have budgeted to spend in Nunavut over that five year period of time.

-----
I think Ms. Gauthier and the team that they put together that compiled this report did a tremendous job and my concern was not what was in the report, but what was not in the report, and that's alternative types of energy such as the hydro link, a hydro link for example from Manitoba to the Keewatin.

-----
In the examples that the minister gave to me, to show it wouldn't be as easy as I guess one might think to look at such a linkage, he cited an example that the mine outside Yellowknife and the Akati mine and the BHP diamond mine, that they themselves went with their own independent generating plant and that they did not run a line from Yellowknife to the mine.

-----
Just a point of clarification to Mr. Chairman, it's my understanding that the reason why they did not run a line out to that particular sight was that Yellowknife could not provide the power.
***************

So it wasn't that it wasn't a good idea, the mines were looking at a power link but unfortunately, the Power Corporation could not provide that amount of power.

Mr. Chairman, my only comment or request to the minister is that he take it upon himself and his department to, as soon as possible, look into providing a study as to the costs and benefits of alternate power sources such as hydro from Manitoba into Nunavut.

And I commit to the member just now that we will try and do that over the next three to six months given the time frame, given that we are trying to set up a whole new Power Corporation, at the same time to try and do that analysis and come back to the members and to this House with that report.

-----
Mr. Chairman, as the member knows and the House, I am not at liberty to discuss the private conversations with the minister of another jurisdiction but I can say to the member that the discussions with the Minister Responsible for Manitoba Hydro have centred around the report itself and as the member knows, it's a new government in Manitoba and it's a new minister taking over the portfolio and he's trying to get up to speed and familiarise himself with some of the other issues surrounding not only this issue but other issues I suppose within Manitoba Hydro itself.

And that's the commitment the member has asked for and I have already responded to the member that we will do a comprehensive review of the Manitoba hydro report and the pre-feasibility of the electrical line and would take that information over to this House and share it with the members and so on over the next three to six months.

Mr. Chairman, with all due respect to the minister and his department, I think this same situation exists in other areas within the government.

Perhaps once we get our own Nunavut Power Corporation then the power rates will increase and perhaps if you can notify us ahead of time, give us notice way ahead of time when the power rates are going to go up, or increase, if the public knows the rates will increase, there will be less opposition if they are notified ahead of time.

I hear comments from the table that power rates are going to go up, and I don't think the minister should be saying that when we create a Nunavut Power Corporation the rates aren't going to go up.

Because, if you read the report and you keep an eye on the world price of crude oil and what it costs to deliver it, there are going to be external influences on it that could create circumstances where we are going to have to increase the price of power because of what is happening outside of our control.

-----
Mr. Picco, looking at the report on page 44, Nunavut now pays the Northwest Territories Power Corporation in excess of 4.5 million a year for just our office costs in Nunavut and it says here that Nunavut can provide that for less than 3 million.
*************** 
tamanna nalauttikasattuni, akiliqsuigajaqpugulli 3-milianik allavvimmarimmut akiujunit nunavummi.

Is that a relatively close figure, so will it cost us 3 million dollars to run the head office in Nunavut.

Now, on to the questions, Mr. Chairman, the member is right, creating the Corporation itself won't cause rate increases but other inflationary factors may.

-----
So when I say the rates won't increase I mean the rates won't increase because we are setting up a Power Corporation, the rates may increase because there is another war in Iran or Iraq or the world price of oil and so on and those are outside of our control.

Right now we pay approximately 4.5 million dollars Mr. Chairman, to Hay River for the operation of headquarters functions and yet after we did that REI all the respondents came back and gave us an average price between 1.9 million dollars, Mr. Chairman, and 3.5 million to do the same thing, over a million dollars anyway you slice it, in savings.

Mr. Chairman the territorial power subsidy program, the TPSP, was put in place by the previous government in conjunction with the NWT Power Corporation, what happens there Mr. Chairman, we could go into some detail on how power subsidies are paid out but the member is correct, if the subsidy was taken out in a way then there would be an increase in power bills because then there would no longer be the subsidy in place.

I don't want to sound like I'm belabouring a point but as minister responsible, you are going to try and make sure that the TPSP stays in place and if due to unforeseen circumstances with the world price of crude plus other options like capital expansion that you are going to try and keep the power rates maintained at a responsible level and I know that we have the Public Utility Board but as minister responsible you are going to make sure that the territorial power subsidy program will be kept.

Mr. Chairman almost 80% of all revenue generated by the Power Corporation comes officially or unofficially from government and if we increase the rates then that means the government would be paying more and then we would have to find the money from programs or services or so on.

-----
The rate subsidy will continue at the same levels for at least the next fourteen months, so it's going to take us a year, the next twelve months just to get the Nunavut Power Corporation up and running and then the cabinet would have to re-evaluate what the programs are that are in place and some of the other advantages that may come to be.

I can say with some authority that when 80% of the revenue generated by the Power Corporation comes officially or unofficially from the government if we increase the rates we ourselves are paying the rate increase so that wouldn't make any economic sense, but again I can't say what the judgement will be down the road fourteen, sixteen or eighteen months and as Mr. McLean pointed out there are external factors out of our control.

But the government choices will be difficult and there will be some crucial decisions that the Government of Nunavut will have to look at and I guess Mr. Chairman, you'd have to look at it would we put in an annual subsidy rebate, can we look at a change from the Yellowknife based rate to an Iqaluit based rate, will we look at adjusting the territorial power subsidy program compression bench mark and make that a lower value.

There's all kinds of different scenarios, but we haven't looked at them because the thrust of the report is to set up our own Power Corporation but that's the type of discussion that we need to take place with the members and with the public frankly on the directions we go in the next fourteen months that the Power Corporation is up and running and has some capacity.

Mr. Chairman, I guess as you know that is one of the things I look at in this report and the recommendations that are in there. If fourteen or sixteen months from now all of a sudden the government decides that they're no longer to have the subsidies in place and if we say everything's fine and this report should go ahead with the recommendations, basically right now we'd be saying that it's ok to go ahead and do that.

-----
So, I guess that's why I'm glad to hear the minister say that there will be some consultations prior to that happening and it just re-affirms that the minister committing that prior to anything being done to the rate subsidies whether they be phased out or whatever, that there would be some public consultation on that.

If we were to eliminate the subsidy, then the rates would increase, so I would expect that the public at large would have an opportunity to bring that forward and I would say to you that any government that did that would probably be doing it at it's peril.

Mr. Chairperson, I think realistically, the Nunavut Power Corporation, with the best information provided to me, is that we are not looking at any rate increase in Clyde River for at least twelve to fourteen months, and I think it is realistic to say and I went to the mayor in Clyde River with the member to discuss the power rate, that the Nunavut government realises that increases from 35 to 40 percent are not sustainable and indeed it wouldn't be sustainable in any other of our communities.

-----
I think what we have to do Mr. Chairman, is the community of Clyde River needs that power plant, consumption has grown and the population has grown and the three million dollars, which the member is correct in talking about, will be spent over the next two and a half years in Clyde River creating employment and spending money there.

So I would say to the member and I commit to the member again, that the people of Clyde River will have a chance to have their say and the Nunavut Government will not anticipate increasing the rates by 40 percent, because at the end of the day it would be us paying for that.

The forerunner of NTPC was the Northern Canada Power Commission, and since that commission has been in place for many years now it would be very difficult for me to say what the capitalisation costs of all the infrastructure they put in place and what that debt would have been, if it is the 33 percent.

He has made a good point and I think the member is trying to say for example where the Northwest Territories Power Corporation two years ago got involved in some natural gas work in the Mackenzie valley, would that debt be part of the debt we would have to share, part of the debt that we talked about before.

-----
The process that has been put in place to look at the identification of our assets and liabilities is that three separate methodologies that I spoke to you about, and that is the table where we would be able to highlight some of the concerns brought forward by the member on the capitalisation costs themselves.

For example, if you look at the power plant in Baker Lake maybe the capitalisation costs have been paid ten years ago which is the actual cost of putting that plant in place.
***************

That would be very hard to figure out and that is one of the reasons that the debt itself is based on the share ownership east and west.

-----
So I guess when we are doing the asset and liability split that is taken into account already, because if there is only five years left in the life expectancy of that asset then it is only worth one fifth of the value and I can't see that being reflective in the amount of debt that has been established.

Thank you Mr. Chairman.

iksivautaaq, pingasuuliqqangajuq atuqtavut piqasiujjisimajuksauvuq ilaliutisimajuksaullunilu piqjuanut turaangajunit akinit.
-----
Mr Chairman, the three step methodology is inclusive of and includes the capitalisation costs.
*************** 
uummaqqutilirivvik sanajaunniruni arraagut 50 naasimalirlutik 40-lluunniit uvvaluunniit 30 arraaguit, ajurnapalukkajaqtuq qaujinasugiaksaq akigilluaqtanginnit ullumiuliqtuq ammalu akiliksaulauqtuq 30 arraaguit aniguqsimaliqtunit qassiullualirajarmangaata.
-----
If a plant was built fifty years ago or forty years ago or thirty years ago, it would be very difficult to see what those costs were relative to what they are today and what the relative debt that was there thirty years ago is there today.
*************** 
tainna maanna uummaqqutilirivviujuq naammakalauqtuq nunavuumut, piqattarnirijavut akingata 33 pusantingannit, taassuma akinganik piqattaratta akiliksaup.
-----
We think that the structure that is in place is fair to Nunavut, that we take 33% of the value of our share, we take the value of that debt.
***************

-----
Again it has to follow the three-step methodology that is in place and we will have to take that into account so that we can make sure that is done correctly.
***************

Again that would be reviewed with the offices of the Minister of Finance to make sure that we weren't being short-changed, I'm sure, as he looks at me inquisitively.

*************** 
nalunaiqsittiarasutuinnaqtunga pingasuiliqqangajunit pilirijjusiuqattaqtumit, tamanna pilimmaksaqattaqsimagaluar&ugu, uvannut ajurnapalusuunguvuq ilaannikkut.
-----
In hopes of maybe clarifying the three step methodology process, as much as I've rehearsed it myself, to me it still seems fairly complex at times.
*************** 
tamanna atuqtauqattaqtuq aaqqiktaulauqsimajuq taissumani qaujimajaulauqsimajunut atiqar&utik ukiuqtaqtuminngaaqtut katimajikuluit saqqitaulauqsimajut avilauqtinnata qaujinasuk&utik piqutivut amma kamagijavut qanuq aviktaugajarmangaata kanangnarmiutanut amma ualinirmiutanut gavamalimaanut, uummaqqutilirijikkunnutuangungittuq.
-----
This whole process was actually designed by what was known as the Northern Representatives Committee which was set up before division to look at how assets and liabilities would be split between the east and the west for all of government, not just for the power corp.
*************** 
asuillaak, upalaur&utigut piusiriqattarniaqtattinni qaujinasuk&uta qanuq avigunnarmangaattigut nunattiarmi uummaqqutilirijikkut piqutingit angiqatigiigunnailigatta aaqqiksimajumik aajiiqatiqaqtillugit nunattiap gavamakkunginnit.
-----
So we came to them for a methodology on how to split NTPC assets when it looked like we couldn't continue on a joint arrangement as part of those negotiations with the GNWT.
*************** 
asuillaak, taanna pingasuiliqqangajuq atuqattaqtavut pijjusiqaqpuq aviksilluni takuksaujunit piqutinginnit kanangnarmiut amma ualinirmiut, taikkua maanna atuqtut tunngainnarniaqput kanangnarmit amma ualinirmit.
-----
So, what this three step methodology really does is it separates all those physical assets east and west, so what's on the ground stays east and west.
*************** 
ajuliqtut piqutiit tamarmit uummaqqutilirijikkunnit annirijaujut iluaniittut nunavut iluaniinginnarniar&utik nunavut amma ualinirmiittut tauvaniinginnarniar&utik.
-----
Those stranded assets so all of the power corporation that has been valued inside of Nunavut will stay inside of Nunavut and all of those in the west will stay where they are.
*************** 
piliriangunialirmijuq piqutinit avigunnanngitattinni nuna pijjutigillugu.
-----
The next step sort of looks at those assets that you can't really divide on a geographic basis.
*************** 
piliriangunialirmijuq qanuq kingulliqpaaqsiutiqarniarmangaatta, aturluni nalunaiqtausimajumit avingnirmut angiqatigiigutausimajukkut.
-----
So that next level of how you get to that final formula, that's using that ratio that's identified in the transition agreement.
*************** 
pingajugijanga taikkua ajurnaqtut, piqutiuvut tangiqaratik amma aulataujut taqsauttiaratik taimanna taijaujumakpat.
-----
And then the third sort of category are those things that you really can't, they're sort of soft assets and liabilities that are fuzzy if you want to call it that.
*************** 
piusiuqattaqtuq atur&ugu avingnirmut angiqatigiigutaulauqtuq.
-----
And those are also using the formula that's set out in the transition agreement.
*************** 
tamanna ikajuutinasutuinnaqtuq uqausirijara qaujinaqsitittittiakkannirasuk&unga piusiuqattaqtumit kiuttiarasuk&ugu apiqqusirikainnaqtanga tuutuu.
-----
So that's just to help provide a bit more clarity to the actual methodology so that hopefully that will address Mr. Tootoo's question.

Mr. Tootoo:
*************** 
apirisungarlunga, iksivautaaq, akingita miksaanutuinnaq.
-----
One last question, Mr. Chairman, just in regards to the rates.
*************** 
makpigat marrungmariungmatiik akingita miksaanuangajut.
-----
You know there's a couple of pages in here on the rates.
***************

-----
I'm just wondering, and realising that the rates are set by the Public Utilities Board, will there be any recommendation or look at coming from the power corporation to the Public Utilities Board that's setting a uniform rate for everyone in Nunavut so it doesn't matter where you live, you all pay the same rate.
*************** 
takunnarajangittugut akaunngiliurutijunit suurlu kangiqtugaapingmit aaqqiktausimanirijanginnit malituinnarmata, takunnaqtangat, malittiarasukkutik atulirajarmata 40 pusantinit akitturiarninganit.
-----
We wouldn't be looking at problems that we're running into right now like in Clyde River where the way the system is set up, where they're looking at, if you went by the book you'd be looking at a 40% increase.
*************** 
aaqqiktausimakpata ajjigiiktisimalutik akingit, akiliqsuijulimaat katujjiqattaqpata nalliukkumaaqaqattaqpataluunniit pivalliajjutauluni suurlu, nutaannguriaqtittijjutaulutik, piqjuanut turaangajunut pijariaqammariliqtunut aksururnaqtuulugu saqqitaujjaangilluni nunalingnit.
-----
If there was a uniform rate set up, that everyone paid a pool or reserve could be built up in order to do the upgrade, from the capital upgrades that are necessary without the brunt of that being born by the community itself.

*************** 
qujannamiik iksivautaaq.
-----
Thank you Mr. Chairman.
*************** 
qassigalaujut atuqtaujunnaqtut akingitigut qimirrunagunnaqtavut.
-----
There are several options under rates that we could look at.
*************** 
sivulliq maannaujuq piusiujuq, kisut ininganiinginnarniarmata, atusuungullutik nunalingni akigititaujunit.
-----
One would be the status quo that we have, basically what's there to stay in place, and uses the community based rate approach.
*************** 
akaunngiliurutijuq nunalingnut aaqqiksimajunut akigititaujunut kangiqtugaapiup akaunngiliurutijuqutigivauk nunaliit atuqpaktangit aulajunnaqullugit taikunngaujjauvaktuq nunalingnut aaqqiktausimajut akigititaujut atuqtaujaraangata, taikkua akiliqsuijariaqaqput, nunaliit atuqpaktangit aulajunnaqullugit, piqjuanut akigijaujut nunaliit atuqpaktangit aulajunnaqullugit niuvianguvalliallutik ammalu nunalingnuaqtaulutik, akiqturiaqtaujaraangata.
-----
The problem with the community based rate approach is Clyde River's problem where any infrastructure that goes in there with a community based rate approach, those people have to pay the infrastructure, the capitalisation costs of the infrastructure being bought and put in the communities by increasing their rates.
*************** 
qaujimajjutigivavut akaunngiliurutivangmat tamanna.
-----
So we know there's a problem with that.
*************** 
aviktuqsimaningita anginiata tuglianuangaarunnarilluta.
-----
We could go to zones.
*************** 
aviktuqsimaningita anginiata tuglia pingasuujuqtuuvut uvvalukiaq 7-nguvut nunaliit ininginniittut ajunginniqar&utik ajjigiinit, aturajaqtut taassumingattainnaq akigititaujumit asuillaak nunaliit atuqpaktangit aulajunnaqullugit ilijaukpat kangiqtugaapingmut, ammailaak qikiqtaqjuarmut, pangniqtuumut, mittimatalingmut akiliijjutaujunnarajaqtut nunaliit atuqpaktangit aulajunnaqullugit.
-----
Zones is where maybe six or seven communities in a certain area with the same capacity, would share a rate and then if infrastructure was put in Clyde River, then Broughton, Pang, Pond would help pay for that infrastructure.
*************** 
tavvattauq atuqtaujunnarmijuq, taanna taijausuuq aviktuqsimaningita anginiata tuglia.
-----
That's another option, that's called zones.
*************** 
takungaarunnarilluta akukitturmiut qanuilinganiriqattaqtanganit.
-----
Or we could look at what Greenland does.
*************** 
piqarmatali taijaujumik titiqqatigut qangattautingata akinga.
-----
They have what's called a postage stamp rate.
*************** 
taanna akigijautitaujuq atausiulluni nunaliit ilalimaaraluanut atuqtauqattaqtuq.
-----
That's one rate for everyone in the whole area.
***************

-----
So there are different things that could be looked at.
*************** 
gavamaulluta, suli uummaqqutilirijikkut makitittariaqarattigut aulatillutigullu.
-----
As a government, again we have to get the Power Corporation up and running.
***************

-----
We need consultation with the Premier, through the Public Utilities Board process.
***************

There might be an opportunity there for setting rates and so on and so forth.

There are recommendations in the report that we've been looking at and taking those in context with the subsidies we would come out with a decision to look at that over the next several months.

So I would say to you Mr. Chairman, that the member's question is a good one and hopefully we can get the power corporation up and running and that's something we could come back to the members with again and say what option should we take.

There has been about 4 million dollars spent in total operations from my understanding since 1991 on that facility and we are trying to readdress the issue around drug and alcohol counselling and to see where we can build that capacity at the local level.

Rather than waiting for the people to apply for funding, we should just be giving them funding instead of them applying for it, applying for funding to run their programs.

-----
Mr. Speaker, all government departments will continue to operate obviously until the March 31st year end, and as members know I'm sure, that as happens with all governments and agencies, there seems to be a bit of a rush in the latter part of the fiscal year when there appears to be excess funds available within their budgets.

But having said that, I think it is important to recognize that even if that were to take place, whatever was to be purchased would be carried over into the next fiscal year, but we would be monitoring that situation and we would expect that all departments would continue to be prudent in their year end operations.

Mr. Speaker, then in light of that, I'd like to maybe ask the minister, or inform the minister that I am quite certain that no member in this House would say no to some type of supplementary appropriation if it were to come forward in the areas of either housing or education, which are the areas that this government, as we have all said, are the top two priorities of this government.

I think it has been asked earlier, is there going to be anything happening with this surplus money in these areas, and the answer has always been "no, we have to wait until, can't discuss it, it is a budget matter".

Whether those projections are correct or not, I would say to you in respect to priorities and issues after March thirty-first, once the savings or the surplus is confirmed, we will have a better idea at the time and then we can make the appropriate adjustments, and it is as I indicated to members of this House, part of the development of the 2000/2001 year budget.

The Petroleum Products Stabilization Fund account was established back in 1972 and the purpose of this fund was to protect consumers against fluctuations in retail prices of fuel products in the event that there was fluctuation in world crude on the world markets.

-----
So basically in periods when the price of crude is higher, then if petroleum products can't achieve it's mandate to recover it's operation costs from retail sales, then the deficiency balance would then be reflected in the stabilization fund.

And in periods when we are able to buy the petroleum products at a cheaper price, then any profits over and above our objectives would be applied against the deficit balance and the stabilization account.

The Stabilization Fund was formed under the GNWT and it was adopted by the GN during the division. The 5 million dollar limit is basically the authorization that the petroleum products can operate within.

I think there were only just two increases in retail prices since 1991, but the limit of the Stabilization Fund is something that we would be looking at as part of the proposal that has been recommended by the Financial Management Board as to the long-term objectives of Petroleum Products.

The Stabilization Fund is an account where Petroleum Products profits and losses flow through, so it is kind of like a retained earnings account that you would probably see in a profit oriented business.

Given the substantial increase in retail price, the retail price of crude as of late, we may have to look at the options of increasing the limit beyond the 5 million dollars if we want to maintain the retail prices at the current limit in the short term.

And, saying that in the Minister's Statement, that if they didn't raise the price of fuel, and pass it on to the consumer, they're in danger of exceeding the 5 million dollars.

As per the formula that was arrived at for the division of assets and liabilities, Petroleum Products portion, or the GN's portion of the Revolving Fund was 2.2 million dollars effective April 1.

-----
Given the unit cost of fuel increase on an average of 9 cents per litre this year, this would have resulted if we didn't have a fuel price increase, Petroleum Products was looking a loss of 4.5 million dollars, and if you combine that with the 2.2 million dollars that has already existed in the Stabilization Fund, we would have exceeded the maximum allowable limit.

Unfortunately, with the way the world crude was moving, and with our future projections for 2000 and 2001, we were still forecasting a deficit even with the 5 cent increase that the, we were forecasting a balance in the Stabilization Fund of close to 4.5 million dollars.

So increasing the Stabilization Fund limit could solve the problem in the short-term, but it certainly does nothing to solve the mandate of Petroleum Products which is to recover its operating costs from retail sales in the long run.

Unfortunately, given the nature of the industry that Petroleum Products is involved in, we certainly did look at the options of the increasing the Stabilization Fund, but at the same time, we also looked at the different consumer groups to see if there are any alternate ways of trying to put a ceiling on some prices.

But unfortunately, that the way our pricing structure and the way that our database systems are structured, it would be very difficult for us to implement a policy where we could put a ceiling on retail prices of this particular group.
*************** 
qimirrulauqpugulli ikajuutiujunit kiinaujatigut kisutuinnarnit ikajurutauvattunit.

So what we did do is we looked at the overall subsidies of products that were being subsidized.

-----
I can give you an example, where diesel fuel was being subsidized we needed a 9 cent increase in diesel fuel in order to recover our objective. We needed an 18 cent increase in gasoline per litre in order to recover our objective, and we had a surplus, we were at a surplus balance on the aviation fuel of 4 cents a litre.

-----
So what we did is, we kind of looked at the option of doing cross subsidies across products and then we looked at cross subsidies across the various communities so that we would have a flat rate and that does keep the, we did absorb a 4 cent per litre increase through the Stabilization Fund.

I would suggest to you Mr. Chairman, if that is what he said, and we will have an opportunity to review that in the Hansard, I would suggest Mr. Chairman, that is an irresponsible statement coming from a member of this House and suggesting that we contravene our own legislation for political purposes.

In response to Mr. Kelvin's query, I believe I indicated that what I was getting at is the budgets are set and we set them and in cases like where the Health Boards go over to meet the needs if it wasn't done in this case, if going over the price stabilization fund meant maintaining a level out there, if that was something that was looked at or not.

The signing of the 1993 Nunavut Land Claims Agreement and the creation of the Nunavut Government has lead to great interest and excitement in the mining world about the potential that exists in Nunavut.

Mr. Speaker, if in the past industry and government were satisfied that the benefits of mineral development would largely pass over local communities, then let me say that we want more for Nunavut and Nunavummiut.

It is important to ensure that we have enough JPs in our communities to carry out the work.

-----
Presently we have 53 active JPs throughout the territory. We also have 17 inactive JPs who are still qualified but who are taking a break from their duties for one reason or another.
*************** 
kisianili tamarmilimaaq 28 nunaliit nunavuumi pijitsiraqtauvapput suuqaimma ilangit iqqaqtuijiralaat pularaqattariaqarmata.
-----
There are JPs in 24 communities. However all 28 communities in Nunavut are served because some JPs travel as required.

There are 10 new applications from individuals wishing to become JPs, and the Chief Judge will be deciding on these soon.
*************** 
naasautitigut qanuinngitsiaqpugut, kisiani qiniinnariaqaratta iqqaqtuijiralaaksanit nunalinni atangittainnarijunnarniarattigu nunalilimaat.
-----
We are doing very well in terms of our numbers, but we must continue to recruit new JPs in the communities to ensure that we have full coverage of all communities.
*************** 
maannamik 2002mut turaagaqaqpugut 100nit pilirijunit iqqaqtuijiralaaqarumalluta nunavuumi.

Our goal between now and 2002 is to have a total of 100 active JPs in Nunavut.

-----
This would allow us to have three in each of the 25 smaller communities and another 25 who would be divided among the three larger centres of Rankin Inlet, Cambridge Bay and Iqaluit.
*************** 
nunalinni pingasunit atuni iqqaqtuijiralaaqariaqarutigivauk pijjutit ajjigiinngittut.
-----
It is important to have at least three JPs in the communities for a number of reasons.
***************

-----
First, we need to be sure that there is always a JP available.

Third, having at least three JPs in communities will help to avoid conflicts where a JP might be asked to preside over a case involving a relative as the accused or victim.

Mr. Speaker, I am pleased to respond to the member's question regarding Qikiqtarjuaq residents who are participating in a commercial clam harvesting operation. Earlier this month the Workers' Compensation Board, Workers' Safety Officer held a meeting at the Qikiqtarjuaq Hamlet office with the mayor, a representative from the HTO, the secretary of Paparack Fisheries and four clam divers.

Applications for these projects must contain the detail engineering design referred to in the request for proposals since the proposal forms the basis of the ACAP application.

Mr. Speaker, in a number of smaller communities, including the members home community of Clyde River, our department has funded a community planning process that encourages communities to discuss and establish their priorities for development.

Once community priorities are identified, my department officials along with community Economic Development Officers work with Hamlets and assist community groups, businesses and individuals to access funding in support of their priority projects.

Mr. Speaker, in the Bathurst Mandate this government asked my department, along with the departments of Community Government and Transportation and Health and Social Services to work with communities in building their capacity to address community issues with community solutions.

I am today making a return to oral question 50-1(3) of October 26, 1999 where I was asked to compile certain information on consultants used during the period of April 1st 1999, to October 31st 1999.

-----
The departments have worked to be as complete as possible but we expect that we may have missed some contracts because beginning on October 1st 1999, there were no finance staff in some departments.
***************

If at a later point during this session or when the Assembly is sitting in Iqaluit, a minister becomes aware of a contract which meets the criteria and has not been included in this documentation, we will arrange for an addendum to be tabled providing the relevant information.

-----
In determining which contracts should be included in this response, departments were asked to use the definition of consultant as set out in the Oxford English Dictionary.
***************

-----
Based on this definition and the terms of the original question, the contracts identified are for services, skills rather than for goods entered into after April 1st 1999 and before October 1st, 1999.
*************** 
ilaliujjisimangimmata kaantulaangujunit nutaannguriarutiksanut uvvaluunniit akuniukkanniriarutiksanginnut kaantulaat ilijausimajut titirarvingannut kamisinaulaukaktitaujuup, nutaaq kaantulaangujuq ilijaukpat amma taannattainnaq iqqanaijaqtitaarijaukpat ungataagut airrili 1, 1999, piqasiutisimasuuq.
-----
They do not include contracts for renewals or extensions of contracts entered into by the OIC, but where a new contract has been entered into and the same person has been hired after April 1st, 1999, it is included.
*************** 
malik&ugit pilirivvingit iqqaqtuivilirijikkut, piqasiujjisimangimmata kaantulaanit sapunniaqtinut pilirijunnarningit maliksimangittaraangata tukisigiakkannirutimik.

Consistent with the Department of Justice, they do not include contracts for lawyers who were felt to be distinct from the information requested.
*************** 
pilluatauningit ilaliutisimajut atuni kaantulaangmit pilluatauvut maannamuangajut kaantulaanguvagiiqtut uvvaluunniit piuniqpaarijunnaqtangit.

The values associated with each contract are either values to date on existing contracts or maximum values.

*************** 
akigititaujut maliktausuunguvuq kiinaujaqtaqaluarninga pijaunikuujut qaujinasuktinut pijittirarutaujunut.
-----
The value given is therefore often well in excess of the funds actually received by the consultant for the services personally provided.
***************

When looking at this review of consulting contracts, there are a larger number of contracts than this government would like to see.

-----
Some of the root causes of this include, there are many vacancies within the public service and many of the consulting contracts are used to fill these vacancies.
*************** 
iqqanaijaarijaungittut innugialiit tuavirnarijaulaurput amma pivviki&&utik saqqittinasuungungimmata taqqakkununga kaantulaagaksanit.

The vacancies caused urgent need and short time frames do not always allow time to publicly tender a contract.

-----
The lack of knowledge and experience among the GN public service with contracting procedures are due partly to the fact that the public service is relatively new.
***************

-----
The costs of advertising are very significant.

For example on a simple ad, the advertising costs are around 2 thousand dollars.

-----
I would like to add that some conditions the public service operated under in the past year created continued pressures for immediate action and reduced opportunities to have in place processes such as standing offer agreements which would have responded to some of these pressures.

-----
Current contracting procedures permit sole sourcing on a number of bases, including allowing DMs to sole source consulting contracts up to $25 thousand if the advertising costs would be excessive.
***************

-----
Of the contracts over $25 thousand, 65% were obtained through a public process while among the 10 most expensive contracts, 90% were subject to a competitive process.
***************

Private homeowners should be budgeting their own expenses and once they cannot afford to pay for their expenses they can meet with a counsellor of our department and look at possible changes to their mortgage payment.

To date since it has been a concern, we are in the process of reviewing that and if you can give me better suggestions, we will look into it and usually when the mortgage holders cannot afford to pay for their mortgage we usually meet with the counsellors and figure out their mortgage payment.

First of all, it is not difficult in respect of the fiscal year ends and compiling all the information for all the departments, the problem the Premier spoke of earlier in respect to specific contracts or specific types of contracts is breaking out the information in a timely and fairly accurate manner, given that we don't have, as he has indicated, we don't have all the full financial complements, staffing complements within all departments of government.

However I would like to say in reflection of the Finance Minister's comments, is that I will be making an announcement from my committee, the Income Support Review Committee, to look into the overall income support programs, the rates, the other matters that relate to, and sometimes hinder the income support recipients, sometimes promotes them, or allows them to make their own living.

The fact of the matter is a lot of people on social assistance are not there because they want to be, they are there because of different reasons and I don't really want to talk about that right now, but the fact of the matter is, the costs of groceries, and we all know that a lot of people have kids in school and a pair of runners is anywhere between 80 and 90 dollars, and they are on a fixed income.

So I think what I was trying to tell the member was that I want to look at all those programs that receive funding from the government, for those who are not in the wage economy and who are trying to make something of themselves and we would also inform the citizens of Nunavut that the income support program is not a long term solution.

I am happy to hear the Minister's answer on that one and I hope the Minister of Finance was listening to it and, Mr. Speaker, I can appreciate the Minister's dilemma in income support and investing in people and things like that but we also know that we are in union negotiations and just recently there was an announcement that northern allowances were going to be raised 15% for government employees and stuff.

As I said in my reply to the budget address last May, I was concerned that we would have fragmented delivery of housing programs when Community Government & Transportation was responsible for certain aspects but Public Works, Telecommunications & Technical Services was responsible for another part of it, Human Resources for the staff housing issue, and Finance yet another.

Mr. Speaker, I don't want to say amending the Education Act is unimportant, I know that amending the Act is significant and we'll want to make sure that we have a full opportunity to carefully study the proposed amendments as will the Nunavut Social Development Council.

Yet the child care policy inherited from the GNWT and applied in Nunavut seems to be starving the few child care centres which are operational in Nunavut and making it difficult for desperately needed new ones to come into being, given that we are decentralizing many positions and families to our smaller communities and given the demographic realities of Nunavut.

Mr. Chairman, in light of that I will just ask the Minister or Mr. Green what would happen or what will happen if the price of the world oil increases over the next year prior to us ordering our fuel for next year, if we are sitting at 4.5 million dollars right now and it is going to cost us more for next year.

Given the prices have already gone up, and again, I appreciate the fact that there hasn't been a price increase for quite a number of years, what would be the process that would have to be followed, whatever option was chosen or looked at, what would be the process for picking or setting, if it was decided that the consumer couldn't pay any more for fuel.

Like we said, we asked for a review to be done to decrease fuel prices and we wanted to get some input, so once the review is done, we will decide what options we are going to be using, and they would be presented to the Ministers or to the Standing Committees that I work with who would be informed.

I guess as I stated on Friday, I don't know if the Stabilisation Fund is, I think you mentioned last week, was something that was set within the budget and approved by this Legislative Assembly, and I would imagine any money, either of those options involve money, so those would then have to come through the Standing Committee into the House either in a budget or in a supplementary appropriation.

I am wondering if there would be a process set up in the event that we ran into this time around, when it comes next time around, next year or the year after, where all of a sudden we have a big increase in fuel prices right around the time when we have to buy our fuel, that either a supplementary appropriation or something would have to be done for approval at that time.

Unfortunately at this point in time there is not a whole lot that we can do in terms of the re-supply simply because 90% of our budget is for, I'm sorry 80% of our budget is for transportation costs and the cost of fuel, the other 11% is for the fuel delivery contractors to provide the fuel on behalf of petroleum products and those contracts don't expire, for the transportation contract it doesn't expire until October 15th, 2001.

The remaining 9% is basically the operating and maintenance expense, which include the repair and maintenance to the tank farms plus the evaporation .... But we do want to look at this long term strategy and we will probably be looking at something that extends beyond those contracts and see what we can do in the long term to try and get the price of the fuel down because we realize the economic implications that those prices are having on the various consumer groups.

Basically what that 9.6 million dollars includes is the total costs of delivering the service to Nunavut.

What I should clarify here is that Petroleum Products acts through the Petroleum Products Revolving Fund Act that was established in 1972.

That fund is used to finance the inventory and the accounts receivable and this is where the O&M expenses are paid.

So it is applied through this particular fund.

PPD's mandate is to recover all of it's operating costs, not the full costs, not all the costs are passed through the revolving fund.

PPD's mandate is to recover the actual product costs, the actual transportation costs, the commissions for local fuel deliveries, dispensing and delivery services, operating & maintenance, common evaporation services and taxes.

-----
So the retail prices are based on those components and based on a 5 cent increase and the costs of those components, right now the total subsidy in that fund is 1.8 million dollars, not 9.6.
*************** 
$9.6-milian pijausimanngimmat 1999/2000 arraagunganit, malingmata arraagumit 1998/1999 ammalu ilaqaqtutik $9.6-milian ilaqaqtutik niuviaksanik ammalu qiturriurutinut akiliijjutinik ammalu akiliijjutaujarialingnik ammalu qiturriurutinut akiliijjutaujarialingnik aaqqiksimajukkut kiinapujaliurutinik ursuuluqautinut.
-----
The 9.6 is not 1999/2000 figures, they are based on 1998/99 figures and they include, the 9.6 includes inventory carrying charges and it also includes the interest costs and the amortisation expense and the interest costs of the fixed assets for the tank farms.
***************

-----
So of that 9.6 million dollars that we're talking about, for the last fiscal year, 9.1 million dollars of that is the fixed cost component, it is the total true costs of delivering the services to Nunavut.
***************

-----
So when we look at our subsidies from the revolving fund, we look at it from two angles, because the price itself is based on recovering the operating costs, not the entire cost of the program.

-----
Well the questions that are being asked, because I think we are using up a lot of peoples' time on the details of the tendering process rather than having more substance that can be asked later in the House, like in this process.

I think we should get a briefing first in the caucus before we use up the public time in those questions, I don't know, that's my point of privilege.

Mr. Chairman, back to the issue, trying to get to the bottom of why we are at the prices that we see with the fuel and home heating fuel and gasoline and so on.

-----
In reference to these contracts, it is my understanding that if Charlie Sunbeam and Associates gets a contract to deliver fuel in a community and that contract was 1 million dollars, but if somebody in another community gets the same contract to deliver the same amount of fuel to the same number of homes and that contractor, his bid is accepted at 2 million dollars, and all things being equal, that cost must be passed on to the consumer, to the homeowner, to the guy that drives his ski-doo and is having to go out and harvest.

-----
So this is where I am coming from, if these prices vary that much it must be reflected in the cost to the consumer, which could be a local hunter, it could be anybody in the community that is paying for his own fuel.
***************

-----
Is that price, the price of a per litre I guess, is that price not passed on to the consumer if there is a variance in what we pay to the various contractors for delivering this fuel or do we absorb that somehow.

Once again, what you see there for the Power Corporation, those are the long term costs that are outside of the revolving fund for the inventory for financing charges because what happens is we do purchase fuel for the power corporation and basically it sits in our inventory until we sell them throughout the year so there is a cost.

To me that seems a little bizarre because the cheque is coming from the government of Nunavut and if you could buy more fuel as a group we could probably pass it on to the consumer and that's one of the reasons we're here and I think maybe that's a good question for the Minister of the Power Corporation I'll ask why they're doing that.

First of all the six communities that we're referring to, they are all the power corporation re-supply communities. So I think it's around 20 million litres in decreased sales so I can't give you the exact estimate but some calculations that we've done in some communities being anywhere from 5-10 cents per litre difference in the transportation cost because the contract that we've entered into is a fixed contract for transportation costs.

Those subsidies, I guess what I was trying to allude to earlier and trying to emphasise, the PPD's mandate is to recover its operating costs from the retails sales from the cash component that I mentioned earlier.

-----
What you have seen in this report for the DND and the federal government are the cost components that are outside of the revolving fund, which is not mandated to form part of the retail price.

-----
But it is a cost to the Government of Nunavut to deliver this program unless our mandate is changed so we can start recovering the full cost of services for some consumer groups.

We have to change our mandate in order to collect the total cost to certain consumer groups like the federal government and the Department of National Defence.
***************

But at this point in time the Petroleum Product's mandate is only to recover its operating costs.

Not all the costs of delivering the programs.

Thank you Mr. Chairman, as part of the review for our long term strategies that is one option that we can take a look at interest groups like the federal government and the Department of National Defence to recover all of our operating costs.

For example for the airlines if we pass on a 5 cent increase to the airlines then they turn around and increase the prices by 7.2.

For myself in my other community it is going to have a drastic impact on my community if there is going to be another increase in my community in the fall. I will be very concerned if you are thinking about increasing the price.

It would be a thirty to forty percent increase in the fuel rates in my community. If there is going to be a 5 or 10 cent increase it's going to have a tremendous impact in my community.

The burning of oil and gas to heat our homes and our cars and the heavy reliance of our industries on fossil fuels, results in carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases being released into the air, eventually accumulating in the atmosphere and causing the earth to heat up.

Mr. Speaker, at the moment, the midwives and maternity workers in the Rankin Inlet Birthing Centre give care to all pregnant women in Rankin Inlet.

Mr. Speaker, until now the birthing centre could accept only a few women from other Kivalliq communities for care, but the demand for more women to receive care and possibly deliver in Rankin Inlet has been increasing.

Mr. Speaker, it is my understanding that historically, obviously Finance Ministers and Premiers are generally asked for comments by media after the Federal Budget as was the case this morning when I did the interview with CBC North in Iqaluit.

-----
But I would say that I know that one of the initiatives in respect to infrastructure reinvestment or a joint shared infrastructure program, there is a commitment by the Federal Finance Minister to have some program criteria in place prior to the end of the 2000 year and I would expect in that particular area there would be some ongoing discussions whether its at the officials level or at the political level to hash out and finalise stuff on that criteria, Mr. Speaker.

This delay is holding up a lot of important development in Cape Dorset, for example, I have learned that Arctic College is holding back on installing new computers and new internet capacity in the present learning centre in the school because it makes sense to install the system in the new community learning centre which the College is still expecting will be built.

The Kimmirut sewage lagoon project was in the Nunavut Government's main estimate for 1999/2000 in the amount of 445 thousand dollars, however the project was never started because the Community Government and Transportation gave approval to the Hamlet too late in 1999/2000 construction season.

I don't know if POL is thinking about changing their policies, but I'm getting indications that one gas station in some of the larger communities is not enough, and that gasoline is being sold between nine or eight- thirty and five and then it is very difficult to get gasoline in an emergency situation after hours, and I think there is going to be a need for private sectors to set up gas stations to serve the public after hours, and on weekends.

But there is also and I know this for a fact, because I made the phone calls myself that if an individual, a home owner runs out of fuel oil in the middle of the night due to a busy work week and scheduling, I know people in my community run out in the middle of the night and there is no way possible these individuals can meet the minimum purchase requirements, which varies from community "X" to community "Y".

Thank you Mr. Chairman. I think I understand what the members are trying to move but there's some contradictions in the different motions.
*************** 
minista iat piiku:
-----
The motions aren't numbered so, if I refer back to your earlier motion that the committee passed, which was the recommendation for reviewing the fuel subsidy, you said to reduce the fuel subsidy to commercial and government operations. Well if you reduce the fuel subsidy to commercial operations, for example, the Northern Store, the Coop, individual private businesses, if you reduce their fuel subsidy, and ask them to pay market rate or whatever, retail rate, then they're going to increase their prices on food and so on and so forth to cover the cost of the reduction of the fuel subsidy.

-----
You say, the fuel subsidies should be used to come up with some kind of price that people can afford, and who can say what people can afford. What David Iqaqrialu can afford and what Mr. Tootoo can afford or what Mr. Picco can afford, will be different than what someone who is on social assistance can afford.
*************** 
qujannamiik iksivautaa.
-----
And what someone doing minimum wage can afford will be different than what someone else can afford. So who decides that.
*************** 
iksivautaa (tusaajitigut):
-----
And if you're asking to reduce all subsidies to commercial establishments, which is your other previous motion, you're contradicting yourself on this one because you're asking that the fuel subsidies be used to help people, but once you cut the fuel subsidies, someone has to pay the difference. The difference will be paid by the consumer and that consumer may not be just the person who buys fuel, but the person who buys food and groceries and everything because the business person will have to pay for that extra fuel cost.
*************** 
qujannamiik minista piiku.
-----
When you reduce it to governments, I think you're trying to say the federal government, because that's the subsidy you talked about earlier, if you asked this government to be cut on their fuel subsidy, which includes municipal governments who get their subsidy from MACA, you're asking for health centres, schools and everything. If you reduce their subsidy for fuel which this government pays, then someone else has to make up the difference and that money will have to come from the programs and services of this government.
*************** 
Hanta tutu.
-----
So, Mr. Chairman, I think there's a couple of contradictions in this. So if you're asking to review the subsidy of government and then at the same time you're asking to put it towards individuals, it's a contradiction, because when you reduce the price for someone, someone else has to pay for it.
*************** 
tutu:
-----
Thank you Mr. Chairman. That's why by the way Mr. Chairman, that's why you have the stabilisation fund in place because the stabilisation fund keeps the level of fuel costs to a price that can be borne out through the stabilisation fund.

All I'm saying is that when you reduce the subsidy to one group, you want to reduce the subsidy to the airlines, but the airlines are going to increase their ticket prices.

I don't think that we have to get into that rhetoric, all I'm saying is that in one motion, they're actually asking to review all subsidies, this motion they're saying review the subsidies and put them toward the consumer and say what the consumer can pay.

Regarding to the Income Support Program, the Income Support Program operates on the principals that we need to provide financial support to those individuals in need.

-----
One, because the office space was designed for work stations, when the Department of Education's 30 positions that were to accommodate the floor of that office, required a resource centre, that took away quite a bit of space for work stations for 11 - 13 PY's.
***************

Secondly, we also have to consider that the employees effected are the people of the community of Iqaluit and they have their families here, they have property here, all these specifics have to be dealt with before the government can say exactly when the decentralization will take place.

Mr. Speaker, I seem to be getting some conflicting responses to my question.

I raised this issue in the House in February in reference to the timing of the transferring of these positions.

-----
I raised the issue many, many months ago and had the Minister of Education confirm in this House that these 13 positions would be in place in Arviat by July 1st, 2000.
*************** 
taima tusaqattaqsimaliqqunga pijarialluqqusirsimagiangit allavittaatsiariaqarniit amma pitaqaraniluguuq.

-----
I posed the question in February to the Premier and the Premier indicated to me that if office space were available it shouldn't be a problem in relocating these positions to Arviat.
***************

Now the Minister is indicating that it will be in the year 2001.

Mr. Speaker, I am trying to get a clear-cut answer to this question that I am posing here.

The issue is very important to the people of Arviat.

-----
It was committed in this House in February by the Premier on behalf of the Department of Education that if office space were indeed to be found that there shouldn't be any difficulty in moving these positions.
***************

-----
So I ask the minister once again, the fact that the office space is available, can be available, will the minister move quickly when this office space is refurbished or made to accommodate these staff, would he then put these positions in Arviat as was committed by both himself and the Premier and this government.

I asked the government if I could have a little bit more time until I work with Public Works, Decentralization Secretariat and the Department of Education to determine what would be the best space available.

If we can move earlier that will be great, I am not telling the member that our plan is now 2001 but the plan is up to this time.

Of course, because this building would be owned by the government, then evaluations have to be done by the government before we can make the decision as to when and where we can move the Arctic College.

But on the other hand there was a commitment made to myself by the minister and his office, also in this House and also by the Premier that the problem was office space.

That's the issue here.

So I would ask the minister once again is he going to honour his commitment that he has made to me and also that the Premier made in the House, that if the office space were found, that the jobs would be transferred as soon as possible.

Approximately twenty million dollars or about twenty percent, Mr. Speaker, about twenty percent of the total budget of the Department of Health and Social Services is in travel, medical travel, and there are different reasons for travel.

There's travel for people to go from their communities to scheduled appointments within Nunavut and outside of Nunavut and there is also travel for example to send physicians, eye teams, and so on around the communities.

If the Member is specifically asking about a contract or tender, maybe he could tell me which contract he is speaking about, because within the Government of Nunavut and indeed within the Department of Health and Social Services, we do have advertisements in place for medical travel for example, medivacs and so on.

-----
Mr. Speaker, I wasn't requesting detailed or confidential information in reference to this, but it is my understanding, the travel, the cost of travel, medical travel whichever it is, whichever type it is, varies greatly from the Keewatin, for example, to the Baffin.
*************** 
tukisiumajatigut akigijangit kivallirmi akituniqsammariummata qikiqtaalummini, qikiqtaalummiut amisuuniqsaugaluarmata.

It is my understanding that the cost in the Keewatin is actually much higher than what it is in the Baffin, though the Baffin has a larger population base.
***************

I wonder if the Minister can confirm whether this is the case and if it is, why is it so.

-----
One of the issues surrounding the cost of medical travel, as the member knows, for example, here in the Baffin region, we have a hospital right in the region itself.
*************** 
tuavirnatukkut aullatittigaigatta mittimatalimmi, aullaqtinngingaaqtugit, uuttuutigilugu aatuvaamut, aanniaviliaqtut iqalunnuuqtautigivapput.

So when we medivac someone from Pond Inlet, instead of sending them, for example, to Ottawa, for health services, they go right directly to Iqaluit.

-----
When we medivac someone from Arviat, from Whale Cove, from Repulse Bay, those people would be sent from their community directly either to Churchill or Winnipeg, and therefore the cost would be more.

Mr. Speaker, I don't think you'd have to be a rocket scientist to understand that if you're travelling further, of course it's going to be a greater cost.
***************

-----
But if you look at the cost per air mile and to break it down even finer, if for example, it's costing six dollars per air mile in the Keewatin and the same air mile travelled in the Baffin is four dollars, it seems to me that would be a problem there and I guess that's what I'm asking the Minister.

-----
If you look at it from air mile to air miles in each of the regions, and it's my understanding, and I guess maybe I can start by asking the minister, is there a variance, a significant difference in the cost of travel, per air mile, in the Keewatin or the Kitikmeot, as opposed to the Baffin.

Mr. Speaker, as I said earlier in this House, we are undergoing right now a comprehensive review of the travel policy that is in place and the monies that we're spending on medical travel and part of that review is to make sure that we have equity and fairness across the system in Nunavut.

-----
On March 31, 1999, as per the Nunavut Act, and except as otherwise amended, all legislation currently in effect in the NWT became the law in effect for Nunavut on April 1, 1999.
***************

The legislation in the NWT has undergone a number of changes over the years.

-----
For example, the amendments of 1994 made it possible for a member to seek the advice of the Commissioner and to receive, under s.79.2, a binding opinion as to the conflicts issues raised by a proposed action or economic activity.
*************** 
aaqqigiarutit iluani 1996 sangujjutaulauqtut atausirmik kamisanaqarnialiqtuni, tallimanik katimajiujunit.

The amendments in 1996 switched to a single Commissioner system, instead of a five-member panel.

Other substantive amendments in 1996 moved from a two-tiered process to a more flexible inquiry by the Commissioner intended to respond to the variable nature of conflict complaints.

-----
These amendments give the Conflict of Interest Commissioner a greater role in providing preventative advice to Members and it is thereby hoped that the need for an expensive inquiry in the future will be minimised.

-----
While these are not binding on the Legislative Assembly of Nunavut, they are nonetheless instructive of the kinds of issues on which the Conflict of Interest Commissioner must provide advice to Members and it is vital that the Conflict of Interest Commissioner of Nunavut has the skills and credibility to do so. These skills will also be necessary for the Commissioner to assist in the review of the legislation to ensure it is appropriate for Nunavut.

-----
The lack of adequate funding for providing all important services across Nunavut and the competition for government finances to meet many other important needs in Nunavut means that vigilance and preventative advice will be needed in ensuring Members live up to the highest standards of integrity and are not in conflict. We cannot afford costly legal proceedings.
***************

The Commissioner must have diplomacy and grace to mediate solutions, sensitivity to the needs of government decision processes, ability to assist different language groups within Nunavut, and the integrity and administrative competence to deal with complaints in a fair and timely manner.

-----
And although this Commissioner is resident elsewhere in Canada, as with all public offices in Nunavut, they must be a leader in the Inuit tradition, able to hold the respect and confidence of all Inuit, Elders and youth, as well as French- and English-speaking residents of Nunavut.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
*************** 
uqaqti (tusaajitigut):
-----
There was a plan that would continue to be utilized as it was because they didn't have any health or safety hazards in that school.
*************** 
nakurmiik arvaalluk.
-----
So they thought that maybe they could still use that school for a number of years.
*************** 
iqqittuq (tusaajitigut):
-----
There were some other schools that were a higher priority.
*************** 
nakurmiik, uqaqtii.
-----
When we went to Pond Inlet we entered the school and there were classes even being held in the hallways.
*************** 
sivullirpaami katimaniqartilluta arraani atuinnaruilaurtunga atiliursimavimmik tutsiraummik nunalinniivangaartunik ilinniavimmik angilligiartauqujijunik.
-----
So this 20 year capital plan, once we start considering this plan we will surely consider the other school as well and try and extend or put in classroom additions. The funding that is being used by the Government has to be used by all schools equally and there are some capital projects such as arenas and upgrades of airports and airstrips, all of these capital projects have to be considered in one plan.
***************

-----
I tabled that letter and also in Rankin Inlet when we had our session, they also requested the school's expansion again this time in a more urgent way. The minister replied last year that if we could find funding for the school then we could work out some solutions for that particular school.

-----
They had already indicated that they had the design for the school expansion however, they started having problems with that and that's why I have been requesting for the minister to look into our school because this is becoming quite urgent for the students in our community. I don't know how else I can convince the minister to look into this serious matter, it is becoming a very serious matter because of overcrowding and it could create health problems for the children in that school.

In regards to the design of the school expansion, it was put out by GNWT and we will indicate again that they didn't have the actual funding for the expansion, they just made plans for the construction.

They didn't even have any contractors to do the work, although they already had the designs planned within the five year capital plan.

They were just in the planning stages at the time when the GNWT decided not to go ahead with the expansion, there were a lot of things that were planned for schools, however they were not put forward by the GNWT.

-----
So the GNWT decided that the Nunavut Government would be able to take on this responsibility, the funding for capital projects and although we knew that we wouldn't have enough funding for these capital projects we had to take on this responsibility.

So we have had to decide which schools needed attention, and I would like to inform the member that in the GNWT's five year plan, Hall Beach was not included for a school expansion.

-----
There are 26 communities in Nunavut, and if he could look at all the schools in the 26 communities perhaps he could see that Hall Beach is after all, one priority that should be considered because there are some schools that are just in bad shape.
*************** 
ii tautugunnartara sanirajak ninniulualirnirmut pinailutalik kisianittauq asingit nunaliit taututtaunirsaugialiit tavvatsautigi.

Yes I can see that Hall Beach has an overcrowding problem but there are other communities that need more attention right away.

For that reason we have had to decide which communities needed the attention more and looking at the budget today, we just don't have the funding required for all the schools to be repaired.

I think the minister at this point in time before the figures appear in the budget, there should be a plan in place as to how the money is going to be allocated, how people can access these funds.

So I would ask the minister once again, does he have a plan in place as to how he is going to allocate this funding, what criteria he has in place so that the various communities can look at what their needs are and whether or not they will meet the funding criteria that the minister will or will not set up.

Mr Speaker, I would like to ask the Minister of Finance when the announcement was made in January was it intended by the minister or his department to have something that was there outside and automatically put on for everybody so that when the Nunavut Employees Union said this is still something they would like to negotiate, that it would be on top of that amount.

First of all Mr. Speaker the member is correct because the Territory of Nunavut came into existence on April 1, the Government employees would have transferred over as far as their employer goes.
***************

Not just for the government but for any other organization that is operating in Nunavut.

So they should have had a T4, in the case of government employees, from the NWT for January first to March thirty-first and for the Territory of Nunavut from April first to December thirty-first.

Of course members realize that the federal government undertakes on our behalf the collection of our taxes on the part of the filing of annual tax for deemed residents on December 31, 1999.

So if someone was to deem Nunavut as a residency that is where the taxation revenue for that tax rate for the provincial or territorial portion of that would go.
*************** 
taima uqausiup asiagut jagaigajanngittugut inuit nunavummi nunaqarsima&aratuarpata tiisamva 31-mi.

I might add that I was a little disappointed that we didn't have an opportunity to discuss the document and debate it in the House before it was released last week.

-----
Having said that, going to my question, under section 11.4, it states that the bid adjustment values for the award of purchased goods and services will be applied to the first 100 thousand dollars.
***************

-----
I am curious as to what rationale was used when they made this decision and what impact the Premier feels this will have for example, on the small businessman in communities where they will be for the most part.
*************** 
isumaqsurunnaniarmata kaanturaatti niuviqtitaujunnarniarmat kisiani tikiumajunik $100-tausanut nunalingni kaanturaattiujumik.

The option they will have is that the contractor will only be forced to purchase up to 100 thousand dollars from the local contractor.
*************** 
quttiniqsaunnirupta tamanna piviqarutaukkannirajarmat namminiqaqtunut nunalingni kaanturaatsimajunut.
-----
If it were higher that would provide more business opportunities for the local contractor.

-----
The way it states now is that after the first 100 thousand dollars the contractor can then go outside and purchase materials. If there is a 10 million dollar school that we are looking at, they would probably have 4 million dollars worth of materials but there is only 100 thousand dollars that has to be spent in the community because of that ceiling that they put on it, up to 100 thousand.

-----
The document that we tabled yesterday on 11.4, it's been further confined to just goods, and not services for the first 100 thousand dollars. The intent there is that the goods that we receive today, such as wood and other supplies, come from the south.
***************

So the intent of that limitation for that first 100 thousand dollars.

I think we all realize that we have to get our wooden materials from down south at this point.

-----
I guess my concern or question to the Premier is, given that fact that there is a 100 thousand limit on the purchase of goods, if it were greater wouldn't the Premier agree that this would give the local businessman who makes his living off importing these products from the south, that would give them a greater opportunity to make more profits so they could provide for the families in a better way.

The whole policy applies, it is not just for goods but to provide services, and the whole policy applies and they will get an incentive and provide employment and training opportunities for Inuit for example.

They will be provided bonuses.

If a southern firm, an outside firm gets a contract for 10 million dollars, basically that means that they only have to spend up to 100 thousand dollars towards materials from the local contractors, our local supplier or lumber dealer or whatever.

We are now going to be continuing that for two years, to allow those companies to adjust their business practices to comply with our new policy. We wanted to ensure that our policy benefits Nunavut in that the benefits that we spend as a government flow to our residents.

-----
If we open it up to other companies that won't do any practices, or locate in our territory, what's the purpose of having a policy. So the intent of the policy is to benefit Nunavummiut and if those companies were to comply with the policy and adjust their practices they have to be able to do that.

Yes, this is not new and I have given the opportunity to the regular members on February 22, I think it was about a week before the session was over, I wanted to get input from them, from my colleagues here and we were unable to deal with this issue on the last day.

So it will take effect on April 1st, because we have to inform all our staff and we have to train on the new system. I think there are over 90 businesses so they have to know the policy.

-----
The biggest concern sometimes is getting people in to inspect the work that was done, and getting a prompt payment, because a lot of small business relies on fast payment of the bills and one of the things I don't see in here is when you do a progress claim whether it is contracting or supplying I don't see the pay period and I guess that follows under the Financial Administration Act.

The other thing that has come up, and like I say I'm not speaking from the Iqaluit perspective, I'm speaking from the small community perspective, that the old business incentive policy was, too me as a small business man, a hindrance and I will tell you why.

If a contract came out to supply, for example if I'm a small contractor in a community and I happen to have a consulting business, or a tourism operation business, or just a small businessperson as usual, and a small contract comes out for ten thousand dollars for the supplying of material for a project in the community.

A business is a business but this is Nunavut and in order for us to encourage small business development we need to be more flexible in the requirements for supplying goods and services to the government.

Now if an entrepreneur is aspiring in the business community to maybe being a northern supplier there was these stipulations in the past that hindered him from doing that, and the civil servants give you no flexibility whatsoever, and that is what I am saying.

As long as you fit the criteria for what I like in here would it be possible to provide all services, if you feel and are given the chance and that is all a lot of small business people ask for, is the chance to bid on projects and contracts.

As I stated before we are removing any application policy for businesses outside of Nunavut. So that is a start, that the policy provides benefits for businesses inside Nunavut.

-----
So given that Mr. Chairperson, in the draft policy it states goods and services and the premier had already indicated that its just on goods and I would like to ask if there was a rationale as to why services such as construction or any types of contracts weren't looked at for providing a ceiling or a cap on them as far as what the subsidy would be.

pijjutigillugu tautulauqtavut niuviaksainnait usijauninginnut niuviaksat ikajuutiqaluanngimmata nunavummiunut.

The reason why we just looked at goods is because the shipment of goods doesn't provide many benefits for the people of Nunavut.

-----
Our services are provided in Nunavut so any caps that are put in place are set out up front like if you are based in Nunavut you get fourteen percent and if you are local company then you get 3 percent, and if you are an Inuit company you get 3 percent on top of that.
***************

Mr. Chairman, I wasn't asking if we were paying more I was just asking him if there was an analysis or something done looking at capping the amount that is paid on a 10 million dollar project.

I would suggest that it is more appropriate to direct this either to the Minister of Education on the specifics of funding in his department or obviously during the Committee of the Whole review of the departmental estimates when he has all his officials here that worked on all the ins and outs of the balancing of the budget allocations within that department.

Mr. Speaker, all the allocations for each department, the authority to set the targets is given by the whole Financial Management Board and at that time, as I had indicated in questions in the past, all the proposals come forth from the departments based on their existing programs, based on some new initiative that each department might want to undertake.

As you know this budget process was somewhat unique I would say, given that we all agreed to carry out Nunavut wide consultations in the fall. That took place over pretty well the whole month of November and into early December because of some problems with missed meetings due to weather conditions and other events that happened in some communities.

With that again, on that type of a time line we can expect to have an earlier review by the Standing Committees during the course of either late this 2000 year or early 2001 year in time to have a late January, February budget debate for the 2001/2002 budget year.

Mr. Speaker, the reason I raise this general question is for the simple fact that for 1998 the school in my home community was on the books, I believe for planning and design.
*************** 
kinguniagut ilinniarvik ungavvariaqtaulauqsimajuq arraagumik piiqtausiammarittuni kataqquujituinnaliqtuni silaqjuap killinganik.

After that point the school I believe was delayed for a year and the project actually fell off the books and I think fell off the end of the world.
*************** 
suuqaimmali maannaujuq suqquimajakkut titiraqsimajuminiqtaqaqquujinngisiammarimmat ilinniarviup aaqqigiaqtaujariaqarninganut nunattinni.

At this point in time it is my understanding that there is not even a file or a record to indicate that there was a need for school improvements in my community.

-----
Having said that, if there are no files or records in the regional office in the Keewatin, even going back to the Yellowknife headquarters from the last government, I fail to see how the minister's staff could fairly assess the need for a school in my community or an improvement to it if the records have been destroyed or lost conveniently by some individuals.

So I would put the question to the minister that I would think it would be difficult for his staff to assess the needs of my community, one of the fastest growing communities in Nunavut.

Mr. Speaker, continuing, from one of the community members in general one of the reactions was there was overwhelming support for the birthing project and also there is agreement that it has helped the community in a number of positive ways.

-----
Is it cost effective in regards to the initial set up ? In 1996 Marie Chamberlain stated that it would require not less than forty births a year in the birthing centre to make the project cost effective.
*************** 
timimut piunirijanga taassuma saqqijaaqtitaujuup uuktuqtaujunnangimmat kiinaujatigut naittukuluutillugu qaujisaqtaunirisimajanga.

The health benefits of this project cannot be measured in financial terms for this short-term study.

-----
Mr. Speaker at the present time, with an average birth rate of 27-30 a year it would have to be determined if the financial savings, and that includes hospital and accommodations costs, matches or exceeds the salary of 2 mid-wives and 2 maternity workers plus a clerk interpreter.

However, analysing the true costs, Mr. Speaker, and the cost effectiveness would have to include an assessment of the savings to the health system of improving the health of young children, infants and their parents.

Mr. Speaker I think it is fair to point out one of the cost factors that are not there in dollar values is when a women has to go away from her home community and the stress that puts on the family.
***************

-----
Now, Mr. Speaker it is very important to point out the CPNP and NNADAP are held at headquarters for Health and Social Services and delivered upon community need and capacity. What that means Mr. Iqaqrialu, is that when they need the funds the Department of Health and Social Services transfers it directly to the community.

Now considering the prices went up considerably for the past couple of years the department is still seriously considering increasing the bid security to somewhere around two hundred fifty thousand dollars in order to reflect the possibility of giving the smaller contractors benefits so they do not need to contact the security or insurance companies to get the bid bond or performance bond.

That right now, we are exploring that possibility with the Justice people and we will be proposing that this is the way to go in reflecting on construction prices or contract prices because it will generally help the smaller contractor.

So because of that and because making money is something that is new or almost new to the Inuit, we have been taken advantage of and with the creation of the Nunavut Government I would like the Inuit to use that past experience and to benefit from it.
*************** 
uvagut nunavut gavamagijangit pigialisaarniugatta inunginnut nunavut amma parnaksimattiakkannirniqsaujunnaqtuta.

Mr. Speaker I'm referring to an organized Youth Centre for our community. In 1996-1997, a dedicated group of young people, high school students, Raurri Ellsworth from QIA, Councillor Lynda Gunn and myself and many more thought we had the problem solved.

Mr. Speaker we all agree to the concept of a youth centre that is not only a safe centre where youth could go to hang out but also a place that would offer counselling as needed.

Whenever we do planning for curriculum or for directives, or even when teaching the Teacher Education Program, we always try to make sure that Inuit Qaujimajatuqangit is there to guide us.

-----
I would like the member to know, and I realize that he knows that the schools from kindergarten to grade 12, there is a Teacher Education Program being taught right now and those teachers can be taught from kindergarten to grade 12 in both Inuktitut and English.
***************

-----
So if we are going to get elders as teachers, they will have to be able to teach their own knowledge, just like we have shop teachers that know how to build igloos and kamotiks, and they know how to teach that area.
*************** 
apirituinnarunnangittugut kinatuinnarmik ilinniatitsiqulugit sunamikkiaq qaujimanngitanginnik.

We cannot just ask somebody to teach a certain subject that they don't know how to teach.

To teach about family relationships and other types of knowledge known by elders.

-----
The government hoped by bringing the functions of the regional health boards into the Department of Health and Social Services this would help ensure there was more accountability and transparency in government services and provide for more Nunavut wide programs and services.

The standing committee supports these objectives however the standing committee has, in two different reports, stressed the importance of also continuing to develop the local capacity to participate in health and social services matters.

-----
However, the standing committee wanted to be certain that the new legislation would in fact insure the minister could enter into agreements with hamlets or with organizations with that are designated by hamlets on health and social services, and we requested an amendment to this effect.

Although the new clause is very permissive and does not require agreements, the minister has stated his commitment to work with hamlets in establishing these relationships on health and social service matters.

Secondly, in order to ensure open and transparent government, a core principal in the Bathurst Mandate, we requested that the clause stating the Statutory Instruments Act would not apply to guidelines or policies be deleted.

The standing committee has advised that the Statutory Instruments Act requires the government publish certain instruments in the gazette including regulations and appointments and certain directives.

However, since the Statutory Instruments Act does not apply to guidelines or policies in any event, the clause in the original Bill was not necessary as a legal matter and was redundant.
*************** 
katimajiralaat naluliqujilaunngimmata maligaliuqtiguungajut maligaqtiguuriaqarmangaata.

The committee did not want to be any confusion as to whether the Statutory Instruments Act should apply in other respects.

Mr. Chairman what we would do in the case of there being no standing committee on health, we'll be looking at dealing directly with the Hamlet, elected people at the Hamlet level to bring any concerns or issues forward.

qimirrulaaqtutigu pilirivvimmiutatigut, taanna $5,000 ikajuutissaulluni amma naukkut akaunaarajarmangaata aturunnaqtavut gavamaulluta aturniarlutigu kiinaujaq.
-----
We would review it as a department, the 5 thousand dollars to see the sustainability and to see what avenues proactively we could take as a government to use that money.
***************

-----
Now after saying that Mr. Chairman, I think it should be pointed out that in some of the communities, some of the Mayors have stated that they will not use that 5 thousand dollars to pay honorariums they would use that to help enhance the committee.
*************** 
tamannalu isumaqsuutaujunnaqtuni atuni Haammalaujunut.
-----
That is fully at the discretion of the individual Hamlets.
***************

-----
So I do say to the member, I thank him for his comments, that I will try to increase that amount after an evaluation of one year of the committees running. After having an opportunity after one year to review with the Mayors, the sustainability and indeed, if that amount of money is acceptable and sustainable, I promise and I commit to the House that we would do that.

Mr. Chairman, I thank the member for his question and I should say that the member has brought forward some good questions during the debate over the last couple of months at the community level.

The member makes a good point and this has come up in the past, it came up with the Mayors, and the Standing Committee, what types of power would the Standing Committee of Health have.

If the Hamlet decides that the committee will be limited to advocacy issues for example, then that's what they would be doing.

If the Hamlet decided that they should be dealing with complaints or issues of confidentiality, looking at health promotion, looking at building healthy communities, looking at programs under Health & Social Services at the community level, then they would be allowed to do that.
***************

What we are trying to say, Mr. Chairman, is that we are willing to go further into this devolution of programs and services maybe moving into the committees taking on more responsibility.

All those responsibilities now will be done with the Department of Health and that is what we talked about earlier with the cost savings issues.

The committee would not actually be doing the hiring themselves it would be the Department of Health & Social Services at the local region, but I see the committee playing a role in deciding who will be working in their community, for example in local hires, with CHR's and so on.
***************

That could be done directly with and in co-operation with the health committee.

-----
For example, if teenage pregnancies, Mr. Chairman, were a problem or a concern in a given community then that's where the health committee might say look we have to deal with this issue. Then they would go to the member or me as the minister and ask us for resources to help deal with that issue at the community level.

Looking at the proposed Bill here we tried to put something in there where the local governments would have more authority now should this Bill go through. Then they would be able to take on more responsibility and take on programs, like the suicide prevention programs for example.

It looks like there is an uneven distribution of funding and when I go through and look at what the Baffin region got and what the Kitikmeot region got, and the difference between what the Kivalliq region got, the distribution of dollars is not even across the board.

The Minister of Finance said in his answer on page 45, and I quote " I don't believe this is for designated communities, it is based on their capital contribution policy for distribution to any place that merits".

However Mr. Speaker, the former Minister of Culture, Language, Elders & Youth said and I quote "that this is for material that is going to be shipped to Cambridge Bay so that it could be done, so that they could do some ordering ahead, it is the shipment of the material for the heritage centre once it is approved, the heritage centre will be part of the school in Cambridge Bay".

Mr. Speaker my questions is the fact that he has indicated that there has not been a commitment on behalf of the government to build a heritage centre anywhere, Mr. Speaker, and in light of some of the questions that were raised earlier this week by Members.

I'm just wondering, if there hasn't been a site picked yet where this heritage centre is going to be located, will all the communities in Nunavut have an opportunity to apply for this funding.

Mr. Speaker the department may have made some commitments for projects but they would all be subject to Legislative Assembly approval at their proper appropriations in each department I mean that's the normal course of business that all departments undertake.

For those smaller communities I keep saying they have no government staff housing and I'm wondering if you could consider this further remembering that there are not very many government offices or staff housing in those small communities.

Mr. Speaker in the 1999/2000 supplementary appropriation Bill that was introduced by the Minister of Finance yesterday, number 3, I would venture to guess this is probably the last supplementary that we will see this year as it ends tomorrow.

Mr. Speaker, I know that since before last fall, members of this House and I believe there's even a motion in this House coming from the regular members and committee of the whole I'm not sure, were asking that if there were any surplus dollars to have them allocated towards housing.

That being the case our work that we had to carry out was quite difficult although I can tell you this, the funding was something that we didn't know the numbers about until the Minister indicated how much of a surplus he was estimating.

Mr. Speaker I still, did the Minister ask, it was quite evident and hinted from last fall by the members of this House that we would like to see and would support some type of a supplementary if it were to come forward to utilize some surplus funds for housing.

-----
Mr. Speaker, I know the target is a moving target but given in the fall we were told there would be a ten million dollar surplus and it turns out that at the end of the year there is a 34 million dollar surplus, I'm sure there would have been a little bit of room there to develop some type of proposal to even use a fraction of that amount.

I would guess to say that it would have been safe to develop some type of a policy or proposal to use even a fraction of that amount in housing this year. So did the Deputy Minister and the Minister understand that the department didn't bring anything forward.
***************

Mr. Chairman, the 260 thousand dollars negative, you have to add on that 100 thousand dollars because it is from a different category in Community Government. So the total of the 260 from the directorate plus the 100 thousand as part of the Community Government negative is the total project for Kugluktuk.

Mr. Speaker, overall the shift of positions and re-allocation is to balance out the needs the Nunavut Government is committed to. Mr. Okalik has written to all the members and municipalities that were impacted by decentralization to give them an update and I believe all that information went out just a few weeks ago, while we were sitting in Rankin Inlet if the members may recall.

Indeed Mr. Speaker, what the department and social workers do, depending on the circumstances each case is different; for example, if both parents died in an accident and there were no immediate family members and the child was to be put into foster care, Mr. Speaker, or if charges were laid for abuse or whatever, Mr. Speaker, then there are cases where those children have to be taken from the parents and put into foster care.

Again I am overjoyed to hear of some of these changes.

The other reductions were from income support and I stated in my opening remarks yesterday that because we have changed the community based income support system, the payments, like in Iqaluit, to the department with other initiatives and looking at other alternatives for income support, we were able to reduce the expenditure in that area.

Mr. Chairman, I understand through some questions that I had asked earlier during the session the school in Cambridge Bay is about 8 million of that capital budget that the department is putting forward. Out of that the majority, I was not given an exact number but the majority of those funds are going to result through an insurance claim.

In Kugluktuk, they have requested this, maybe not only in Kugluktuk but also in other communities, to use elders in the school system so that they can pass on their traditional knowledge and that will be a great asset to our young people.

The reason I was asking is that you are saying the department may be targeting at least 85 percent Inuit in the future. Some of that 85 percent we would like to see as elders in permanent positions instead of having to hire them on a casual basis.

I totally agree with him that we would like to see elders in the NTEP programs. In the regular NTEP programs but we don't have developed sophistication for specialists other than the language specialists that we have trained and now we have hired, two in permanent and two in casual in Arviat headquarters for curriculum development programs.

Our first step in introducing Inuit Qaujimajatuqangit to the Department of Sustainable Development was to establish an Inuit Qaujimajatuqangit working group which consists of senior Inuit officials in the department.
***************

To date we have not had an opportunity to get together the terms and criteria for requests for proposals given that our time has been spent in trying to get the budget development process completed and preparing documents for standing committee reviews and to have the main and capital estimates available for scrutiny through the Legislative Assembly sitting that we currently are in.

The cost of the five days leave was deducted off their payroll over the course of the year. Over the 26 pay periods and some of the employees who came over to the Government of Nunavut... Sorry I should step back here Mr. Speaker.
***************

We inherited that same policy on April 1, 1999.

-----
New employees to the Government of Nunavut of course had some problems with that wondering why that was taking place and some did not support it because they were not part of the Northwest Territories regime prior to April 1, 1999.

They do not have to have the five days taken off.

Mr. Speaker, as the member probably remembers about two years ago, three years ago, we erected a sign on the proposed location and many of the Baffin leaders, many of the Mayors, indeed with the member and some of the members around this table today, that location was identified by the Baffin Regional Health & Social Services Board.

When I was on the DEA for a number of years we seem to have changed accounting practices every year and I am urging the Minister to maybe make sure the DEAs in Nunavut have a standardized accounting practice in their offices so that most DEAs are compatible if you have somebody training Secretary Treasurers in the accounting end which seems to be where our problems are.

-----
Where you have thirty kids in a classroom or where you have 25 kids in a classroom if you are in grade 3 and they are all at different grade levels, I think the kids at that grade level suffer. Because the teachers are scrambling and working hard to get the kids at other grade levels up to that grade level.
***************

That is when our drop out rates start. That is when the kids are starting to find out that they do not have the skills necessary to go into high school to graduate to go to university to get the jobs we have promised them and are saying they need to get an education.

Before I forget, it is not a matter of finances when we want to hire elders as instructors. For example, the NTEP uses huge sums of money to get training going with the students.
*************** 
tukisittiaqquukainnangimmanga.
-----
We have no problem with the finances for the elders, it was never planned ahead in the past as to how we could utilize the elders and what kind of instruction they could be giving. They would be brought into the schools and they would just instruct the students one or two hours and there was no policy so it was left up to the communities' discretion.
*************** 
nunattinni sanirajangmi uuktuutauqattarmat.
-----
The communities would consider the curriculum that they would be using and at the same time the elders would be teaching the students. For example, if they were going to be teaching igloo making, I would not just teach students by showing them I would have to keep in touch with my students according to how much they are learning and how much they are taking in and how involved they are.
*************** 
naullaq ilinniaqtulirinirmut iqqanaijaaqarsimalirmat akunikallaulirtuq.

As an instructor I would have to know all that, I cannot just let them watch me and expect them to learn from watching automatically. That is just an example.
***************

-----
I just want you to know that after speaking to many teachers, they have stated that it is evident if you are not a qualified teacher, either your first student or your 20th student, if they are not taking in what you are teaching the teacher won't even know that a student is lagging behind. As well, if the communities wanted to hire their own teachers according to the Act the minister can certify an elder to become an instructor.

Although I do not want to talk too much in detail about that, we want to plan how we can involve the elders. If we are going to be using the same system as GNWT without actually doing a survey or doing any review as to how we can utilize the elders, since we now have the Nunavut Government we can do what we want.

However, according to one of the comments that was made, if the Inuktitut training or language of instruction, if we are going to be teaching environment, would not we be speaking Inuktitut. Wouldn't it be better if we taught them in Inuktitut if we are going to be teaching the students about the environment.

We are now reviewing that within our department and we are reviewing English and Inuktitut language of instruction in Nunavut as to which would be more appropriate to use, whether we use Inuktitut language of instruction, especially in the kindergarten up to grade 12, whether we could use the English language for our instruction.

Other members also requested this whether we can make this a little bit more simple formula than the one inherited from the GNWT. We are in the same line as the rest of other jurisdictions across Canada, that we want to make a more practical, workable PTR ratio.

If you have 101 students, you are allowed to have 5.0 teachers. One hundred and thirteen 4.5 and they are all different all the way down to 473 to 21.5.
***************

So it is not fixed to anything until you get to 483, then it becomes consistent with 22.1.

-----
Then the high school section is a little bit different, grade 10 to grade 6, then your ratio is fairly good until you get to 475 which you would have...466 you would have 25.0 and of course that also depends on I suppose, the subjects you are taking.

-----
One is, what is an ideal sizing and I believe there are a lot of variables there, it depends on the age grouping, it depends on the type of course being taught and it also depends on the makeup of the children in the school.

The other concern of course is that to change the pupil teacher ratio, which is something that we would like to do over time, is an expensive item it means putting more teachers in the entire system.

-----
But certainly that is something from an education perspective we would recommend that we do over time, realizing that we can't do everything at once. Overall for a policy, we would like to move generally to a more favourable pupil teacher ratio and we believe that would be in the best interests of our students in Nunavut.

-----
I don't need to remind this House that students in Iqaluit are still being sent home on too many occasion's because classes are being cancelled as a result of there not being enough teachers or substitutes on hand.

I can't imagine that there is a single parent in this community or any other community who would think that their children's schools have too many teachers.
***************

Mr. Speaker I understand that Iqaluit has over a hundred new students since this past fall alone.

By the fall of this year that number may be over a one hundred and seventy new students.

The current formula is hardly magical or perfect for example there are 29 kindergarten students at Joamie elementary school.
*************** 
taanna isumagijautuinnartuq imaak 14.5 aaqqisurtaumaninga ilinniatitsijiit nalunannginirpaanik amma tamatumuuna kiinaujartuutiqartitautsutik.

This is only considered as 14.5 FTEs that is what they are funded on.

-----
But next year when the students move into grade 1 the formula will ignore the fact that are actually 29 students in the classroom not the 14.5 FTEs they are funded for.

-----
Iqaluit's unique circumstances are further reflected by the fact that there are three language streams in this community's schools with the existing formula the student teacher ratio in the Inuktitut stream could be as high as 30 to 1.
*************** 
uqaqtii ikamurtullarittara ministangata ilinniartulirijiit qimirrunasuallarinninga aaqqisursimaninginnik.

Mr. Speaker I fully support the Minister of Education's commitment to review the formula.

-----
While Iqaluit may have more teachers than the formula allows this ignores the fact that there are over 120 more students than the formula took into consideration last fall.
*************** 
tamanna atjiungittuuluanngittuq iqalunnut tukisijakkut ilinniavittaqaurianga nunavulimaami ilinniatitsijiqaluariangit aaqqisurtaumammatanit.

This situation is hardly unique to Iqaluit as it is my understanding that there are schools throughout Nunavut that have more teachers than the formula strictly permits.

-----
Any review must take into account the realities of the schools in communities like this one and not merely be a rigid mathematical abstraction that ignores the real needs of students, parents and teachers alike.

The fact is Mr. Speaker, that Iqaluit like many other communities does not have too many teachers, the fact is there are too few resources to get the number of teachers that our schools need.

Yesterday afternoon we heard, through CBC Northbeat, from Yellowknife that they were not very happy about the policy that we were producing called Nunavummi Nangminiqaqtunik Ikajuuti, our own BIP.

Because we all know Mr. Speaker when the Government of the NWT was our Government the Inuit people were not benefiting too much from the Business Incentive Policy because it was geared more for people in the West, especially for the businesses in Yellowknife and Hay River.
***************

Nunavut's businesses will finally benefit from this policy because at that time the people of Nunavut were not benefiting as much as the people of the West when they had the Business Incentive Policy.

The people of Sanikiluaq were not satisfied with the change because all year round we have a lot of darkness and only in the spring do we have bright days in Sanikiluaq.

For that reason the people of Sanikiluaq were against the single time zone however the people of Sanikiluaq do try to do what they are asked to do and they are always open to the Government's wishes.

Mr. Speaker, when we are dealing with the issue of mental health, the Department of Health & Social Services has tried, or the three health boards have tried to identify a position of mental health worker in each of our communities.

Mr. Speaker, the Federation of Nunavut Teachers contract covers of course the teachers, the principals, as for the other people that would work in the schools, if that is what the honourable member is referring to, those that are not directly teachers would be covered under the Northern Employees' Union.

No we have not made any proposals and the member would also appreciate that since last year, April 1 to date, the capacity in the Department of Education, we have been working very hard introducing and discussing and revisiting the new initiatives we would like to see over the course of the years.

-----
However having said that, I've already committed to reviewing that and I will be discussing this with the communities, regions and the members of the assembly and having a full discussion as to what would be a good PTR on the basis of the community or the subject being taught in the classroom.

There are several proposals that have come forward Mr. Speaker, on this issue of decentralized positions for Kugluktuk, as you know some of those positions were slated for Baker Lake but some of those positions have been changed to put "X" number of positions into Kugluktuk.

I guess I was asking the minister if the department is doing a study or looking at the reason why we do seem to have such a high drop out rate of students once they get to the high school level and if there's lots of kids in the elementary level and they seem to fall through the cracks those that are dropping out of high school and that's what I was referring to Mr. Chairman.

We have to look at what we do with education and educational programs in the communities and what are the factors are contributing to the drop out rate or fall into the cracks.

I think, like any other community program the school requires strong support from the community, strong support from the parents and the co-ordination and co-operation between the educators and the Department of Education and the public in general.

Both the curriculum and the programs that we provide to schools have to be reviewed and the turnover of teachers mainly in our area is very high so we are going to look into that as well.

-----
Like the minister indicated if the students are not getting enough support from their parents right from elementary to grades 6 and from grade 6 beyond, I think we need to put some kind of support system for students so they can remain in school.

-----
We have done some research on that and we expect that things will get better in the future because we all know that if a student who has good support from his family and in the community he has the tendency to stay in school and complete his studies.
***************

It says that the birth rate in Nunavut is 2.5 times the Canadian norm and twice that of the Northwest Territories. Thirty eight percent of the population of Nunavut is under 14 years of age and 56% of the population are under 25.

But, at the same time I am confident that with this continuing improvement, this trend that the people of Nunavut, in fact the whole society is stating to us, is expressing to us that, if you listen to the radio once in a while and the people on the phone in show, how do you feel since the April 1 anniversary has your pride increased or improved etc, they have been very positive.

-----
What the minister has commented today Mr. Chairman, and earlier this week is that we're committed to reviewing that formula and a large part of that of course is the student teacher ratio, coming up with recommendation of how to make the components of that overall more relevant to Nunavut.

-----
I am sure Mr. Chairman and the members will appreciate that to change and improve that has implications dollar wise so that is something that once we have done our homework, what we believe is right educationally, that's something that the minister would want to take before the government.

So I will conclude Mr. Chairman, by saying that it's complex and technical and we will provide a written summary of how that works and I believe we should be able to have that in one or two working days to the members' satisfaction.

Mr. Speaker, members will recall that almost a year ago I spoke to this House about attending the Montreal fur show, in which for the first time a collection of Nunavut fashions was included.

Happily, in 1993 and primarily from the interest generated from Mr. Harper's book, the museum relented and finally sent the remains of the Inuit, including Qisuk, Minik's father, to Greenland for a proper burial.

Mr. Speaker I would like to take the opportunity to add my voice to the number of people that have spoken out on the issue of naming of Iqaluit's streets.
***************

We know Mr. Speaker that some of our roads do have official and somewhat unofficial names.

For example, in my riding of Iqaluit East we have unofficially named one street as "the one way road." Mr. Speaker, this may be quaint but as pointed out by the fire chief it could cause some problems with the response time.

Mr. Speaker, as part of the Nunavut Capital Commission and following a suggestion made by Mr. Saali Peter, I too would endorse the idea of naming streets in town after different areas of Nunavut.

During the capital campaign we campaigned for, as our motto said, "Iqaluit for all of Nunavut". What better way of showing and endorsing that by having Arviat Avenue and Broughton Boulevard and Kugluktuk Drive.

I know the local business associations, the local Inuit associations, and the hamlets would support the larger gyms in their schools so more regional sports competitions and conferences could take place in their communities also.

I have a return to an oral question asked by Mr. Barnabas on Wednesday March 29, 2000.

-----
When reviewing the historical GNWT capital planning list it was noted that Grise Fiord received 150 thousand for the design phase of a proposed school addition.
*************** 
sanamaninga titiraujaqtaulauqsimangmat arraagumi 98-99 sanajaujumaarniaqtuni arraagumi 99-2000.

The design work was done in the fiscal year 98-99 with the construction planned for the year 99-2000.

-----
Prior to the creation of Nunavut, the GNWT deferred the project and it was taken off the 99-2000 capital program the Nunavut government inherited.

-----
The Government of Nunavut cabinet established a very strict capital assessment criteria to maximize a limited capital budget and our emergency/safety criteria required us to address the problems faced by the schools in Baker Lake and Clyde River first.

I have asked that the Grise Fiord project be reactivated and have place 200 thousand dollars in the estimates to cover the costs associated with updating the design of the school.
***************

I believe the Grise Fiord project will benefit the children of the community and relieve the pressure on the existing facility due to overcrowding.

As far as office hours go, the hamlets can do what they wish. If they want to start coming to work at six in the morning that will be at their discretion but the Nunavut Government has set hours and because of that if a community has different time zones this is sure to create a problem.

Prior to the time that we did this central time zone it would be 8 o'clock here in Iqaluit employees would start going to work then but the people in Cambridge Bay wouldn't get to work until 10 o'clock Iqaluit time and so to make it uniform for all our employees we thought it best if we all went to work at the same time and we all got off at the same time.

What I am saying is any community who want to do fundraising, wants to work with Culture, Language, Elders & Youth or any other organization outside of the government for that matter or the co-operating companies who want to participate in getting the heritage centres built within or attached to the school in the communities we welcome that.

-----
I just have a concern about the motion, because what we tried to do, and the members agreed to it, and it was also the goal of the government, that whenever we had a decision to make in the communities we would first consult with the communities. Whenever there would be a decision to be made concerning capital projects in each of the communities we want to consult with the communities, because we know some of the smaller communities might find the amount of twenty-five percent too high.
***************

-----
When they can't come up with the twenty-five percent should we leave them alone. Not consult with them anymore.

On the design of the high school, I heard that the design of the school, the architectural design has led to some increased costs for the facility. I know the standards and criteria they use in other communities and once we see what the school looks like it will be pretty straightforward to see if additional costs are incurred and what the school looks like.

Yesterday morning through the radio, I heard a report that was inaccurate by a member of the media.

-----
The report said that the Minister of Sustainable Development Peter Kilabuk has stated that he will ask his department to conduct a review on the actions of the Workers' Compensation Board to see if procedures had not been properly followed.
***************

I am very concerned about this, Mr. Speaker, because events like these touch on our privileges as members, how our constituents perceive us and it can erode public confidence.

As the purpose of these publications is to influence public opinion outside of Nunavut they have been initially published in English and the video and booklet are being sent to thousands of schools in Canada and also distributed to decision makers in the U.S. and Europe.

The Padlopingmiut people were brought back to the community in 1968 and during one of their spring camping, they decided that they would look into their old campgrounds and try to look for some old artifacts or some things that they had left behind.

-----
Mr. Speaker, I think the Government of Canada and the Northwest Territories Government at the time took advantage of the Inuit people when they were telling them that they should be going into communities. When people were relocated to a community they were told they would be taken care of by the Department of Social Services.

Thank you Speaker, Over the past week in the House, Members have raised a number of concerns about the capital plan for the Department of Education and in particular the new High School in Cambridge Bay.
***************

Members have been asking questions in the House and in Standing Committee meetings over the last several months on this project, and have been frustrated that answers have often been vague, evasive and unsatisfactory.
*************** 
tamanna pillugu, maligaliurtiit ajattaujuutigilaurtut amisunik pigiartitsigutiliursuti maligaliurvimmi.

As a result, members felt compelled to bring forward a number of motions in the House.
***************

I would like to summarise the concerns of the Members so that it is very clear what the concerns are.

-----
First, members would like priority to be placed on those school projects which have health and safety or maintenance needs that have resulted in school closures, overcrowding or the lack of basic facilities such as gymnasiums and libraries within schools.
***************

Priority means that these projects should be addressed first and that steps be taken to move these projects forward as much as possible in the coming fiscal year.

Members want to see the 20-year plan that the Department has committed to bringing forward so that the communities can all see when their priority needs will be met.
***************

***************

This also seems to be a very basic request about good planning and clear expectations.

-----
Third, a limited capital budget means that some project Items such as larger gyms and heritage centres in schools may need to be funded in some other way until priority projects that address the lack of basic needs in so many communities have first been completed.
*************** 
maligaliurtiit qaujimajut ilangit nunaliit pigumaniariangit tamakkuninga maanna amma ikajurturtanut pijumaarijangit.

Members know that some communities will want these Items now and we support their aspirations.

-----
But unless there is a pressing education reason for such a project we want the Department of Education to encourage and help communities find other sources of funding for such projects outside our Government.

-----
Perhaps other groups that are interested in sport, conferences, and heritage will be able to help fund such projects and the Education capital budget can be used for the priority education projects I mentioned earlier.
*************** 
tamanna nalunanngittupaalummi isumagijaq pillugit sivulliutigialiit amma ikajurturniit.

This seems to be a very basic idea about priorities and support.

-----
Fourth, the Minister has stated that the reason that Cambridge Bay is getting a larger gym is because there is great community interest and the community is willing to raise 25 percent of the extra cost to pay back the government.
*************** 
maligaliurtiit qaujimajut pitaqalaarianga pilirianik taikkuninga nunaliit atsualuk pijutsaujaarniqarvigippagit ikajurtutsaujaammarillutik kiinaujanik piruinirnik.
-----
Members know that there will be some projects that communities feel so strongly about that they are willing to help raise some of the money.
*************** 
tamanna pimmariutillugu isumagutauniartuq gavamakkunnut amma maligaliurtiit angiqatigiit nunalinnut ikajurturtauniq isumagijaugiaqarianga aaqqitsuiniarluni sivulliutigialinnik.
-----
This will be an important consideration for the government and members agree that community support should be considered in establishing priorities.

-----
However members want to have some assurances that all communities will be treated fairly and that if they too want a larger gym for sport events or conferences that if they raise the 25 percent the Government of Nunavut will pay the remaining 75 percent as they plan to do for Cambridge Bay.
*************** 
tamanna taimailaqititsigiatunngittuq iluunnangit nunaliit piruigiaqariangit 25-pusanginnik anginirsamut pinnguavimmut.
-----
This does not require that all communities must raise 25 percent of a larger gym.
*************** 
taima ajaurtumik ilinnianirmut pitjummik taimaqai pilirivik akiliigunnarajaqqa iluunnanginnik nami pinnguarvik kinnguumagijaunnirpat marruunnut ilinniarviinnut.

If there is a pressing education reason then it may be that the Department would pay for all of it such as where a gym may be needed for two schools.
***************

-----
If a smaller community can justify a larger gym for sport or conference reasons perhaps the government would accept a lower contribution from that community.
***************

-----
But the principal is that if a community will commit to raising the 25 percent over time then the government will consider this in planning priorities for allocating projects.
*************** 
tamanna uvattinnut pijariakinaarturjuujaartutq apiqqutigilugu atjigiititsiniq.

Lastly, members know that certain architectural designs and extra inclusions will make a project very expensive.
***************

-----
The Cambridge Bay new High School is more expensive than other new schools in Nunavut.

-----
Members have asked the Minister and his officials about the design implications for the budget but have not received adequate answers and so members have asked to look at the design themselves.
*************** 
qaujimajualunnut uqautjaugiatunngittugut akitujuuluni sanammausiuppat.

We do not need experts to tell us if it is an expensive design.

At a time when other priority school capital needs can not be met, members have given a list of other projects for consideration by the Minister.
***************

Should he be in a position to re-profile any of the funds from one very expensive project to other projects we have recommended such alternatives.

Arctic Bay and Igloolik are close to his community so I can probably say that I think I can ask the development council to also hear from Pond Inlet although we will not be able to visit the community we will give input from Pond Inlet.

However, they indicated that perhaps it would be best if they could travel to the communities that need income support policy review in an urgent matter. So, it was up to Nunavut Social Development to decide what communities we travel to, and considering how much budget they had, they decided to visit the main social development Councils in the communities.

-----
Sometimes when there is an employee that has problems with his heart and an individual has to quit work but is not quite ready for retirement yet but cannot work anymore because of his heart problem they sometimes lose part of their pension.
***************

It is very difficult when you ask two ministers to address the same question.

-----
The question that I have is, say for instance, I have been working for quite some time or there is an individual who has been working for about twenty years in the community, or more than twenty years, and I would have a retirement benefit.
***************

Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
*************** 
uqaqti, katimajiu uqausinga piugivara kisianili turaariaqaqtugivara ministangannut iqqanaijaqtulirijikkut kiujunnaqtuq.
-----
Mr. Speaker, I think the member brings up a good point and in actuality I believe it would be the Minister of Human Resources who would answer this question.
*************** 
uqaqti, uqausiqarataarmat mista iqittuq marruuliqqangajuunnik.
-----
Mr. Speaker, the member talks about a couple of different issues.
*************** 
aippanga ajurutiqainnaliqtunut aippanga ajukainnatuinnaqtumut.
-----
One is long term disability and the other could be short term disability.
***************

-----
My experience has been Mr. Speaker, if a person is almost at the point where they could retire, Mr. Speaker, they could be put on long term disability or short term disability depending on the incidence or how long they would have to go before their retirement date.
*************** 
suurlu, uqaqti, nuqqarnialirniruma arraaguunngittumit, iqqanaijarunnailillungalu, ilijaujunnaqpunga ajurutiqainnarnialiqtunut akiliqsuqtauvissarnut qalligiaqtauluni amma pijunnaqsititaulunga uqausirijangata katimajiup.
-----
So, for example, Mr. Speaker, if I was going to retire before a year, and I am not able to continue at work, I would go on long term disability so that I would have my pensionable time brought forward and be eligible for the pension that the member is talking about.
***************

-----
It also depends Mr. Speaker, if they are working in what we call a union shop, in those cases, Mr. Speaker, there are terms and conditions outlined in the collective agreement between the employer and the employee.
*************** 
ilaannikkut, uqaqtii, iqqanaijaqtinut katujjiqatigiiktaqaqtinnagu asinginnit atuagaqtaqasuuq iluagut gavamakkut iqqanaijarnirmut maliganginni amma iqqanaijarnirmut maligaliangusimajut nunavuumi ammattauq gavamatuqakkut maligaqarillutik atulirajaqtumik.
-----
In some cases, Mr. Speaker, where there isn't a union involved then there are other guidelines under the government labour laws and labour legislation in Nunavut and also a federal law that would come into play.
*************** 
qanuiliuqtuqaqtillugu maligaliuqtiup uqausirijangani piugajaqtuugaluaq titiqqaulugu takujunnaruttigut maligiaqaqtunit ilaliujjisimalutik asuillaak tunilugu iqqanaijaqtulirijikkut ministangannut.
-----
If there is a specific case that the members is talking about I think it would be good to get that in writing and the conditions and probably forward it on to the Human Resource Minister.

But can your department commit to maybe looking at a policy that treats every community fairly and equitably in the distribution of dollars. In the long run in the smaller communities it is harder to raise money to purchase books for libraries while in larger regional centres you have lots of industry, you have lots of businesses that can contribute fairly and evenly.

The fact of the matter is that your department has been developing a twenty year capital plan which I think is showing a lot of insight, foresight, vision within your department because if you ask any other department I don't think they are even thinking about five years let alone twenty.

My point here is that I think we can all agree that education is probably going to be one of the most important issues in the next four to five to six years and how your department delivers it to make sure that we have an educated work force in Nunavut which we lack at a certain point right now, but I am sure we will get there.

I know the educators and the people in the Education Department know what we need more in regards to capital plans for our schools, and I don't want Public Works to take any offence to what I am saying here today, but has the Department of Education had their own capital planner on side or in the department that is going to study all the needs in all the communities in Nunavut over the next few years, to show, to genuinely reflect the capital plan for the next twenty years.

Looking at page 9 - 9, there's 3 million 142 thousand that is slotted for Student Financial Assistance for room and board, books, if they are going to universities or post-secondary services or Arctic College. There are 106 Nunavut students going to post-secondary school in the south and there are 119 in Nunavut.

We set aside 3 million 142 thousand for Student Financial Assistance and through Arctic College we have 13 million 268 thousand, that was used for the June 30, 1999 students. There were 1,011 students and again on the same item, there's 623 full time, and there are 1,479 part time students.

I heard your comments on employing Inuit people and training Inuit teachers which I think is working out to this point and I think it has been very successful in putting elementary teachers into programs. Over the last 10 or 12 years I haven't seen many of them through first hand experience moving on into the secondary end of the schools and I think we need them there probably as much as we need them in the elementary end.
*************** 
ilisaijiunirmut ilinniarussarmut piliriaq, $1,804,000.00.
-----
Also there is a frustration out there among the teachers and part of the reason we ran the NTEP course was because most of them had families and it was hard for them to relocate to southern Canada to take their teacher's certificate. Like I say this NTEP program worked out to be very good because we delivered programs in the north and it was much easier for them to take these courses and graduate.

-----
We probably have a very well trained group of NTEP teachers out there with ten to fifteen to twenty years experience in the schools, but they seem to be getting frustrated with the lack of opportunity to progress in their education because of the same factors that didn't allow them to go south to the southern institutions. What I am talking about here is getting into the Master's programs and upgrading.

Is your department committed, because I know the Human Resources Department is committed, with their Senior Assignment Program, which was very successful, is your department committed to upgrading a lot of these NTEP teachers from the elementary end if they want to, to go into the high school end and to maybe further their education into the Masters so they can get deeper into the civil service in all departments, not just the Education Department and take a leading role in the development of the Senior Assignment Programs within the Nunavut Government.

But it is each department that is responsible for the terms and the parameters surrounding the services within those facilities, so this is not a financial problem it is more of a...sorry.

It's not a financial question so much as a programming one, and I think it is better addressed to the Minister of Health.

-----
Mr. Speaker, as you know when the Government of Nunavut came into existence on April 1, we assumed many responsibilities from the Government of the Northwest Territories. At that time the new cabinet, under the leadership of the Premier undertook a retreat to look at some current issues that were outstanding.
***************

One of those issues, Mr. Speaker, was the Public-Private-Partnership themselves, whether or not the Government of Nunavut would adopt that possibility for looking at financing some of their infrastructure.
***************

It was agreed in principle provided that there was a caveat that any public-private-partnership had to conform to Federal Auditor General requirements as a project.

That was what we followed along.

In conjunction with that Mr. Speaker, as we know there were four P3 projects in different stages of development, five I apologize Mr. Speaker, I forgot the Arviat Health Facility because that one is a signed off deal now.
***************

There were five at the time at April 1, 1999 that came forward from the Government of the Northwest Territories to the Government of Nunavut.

Four of those were health facilities.

The member is correct, the Baffin hospital replacement here was one, a regional health facility in the Keewatin based in Rankin and a regional health facility for the Kitikmeot based in Cambridge Bay were the other three health facilities at that time.

On the final one the Arctic College residence for Cambridge Bay, there is a proposal right now to go back out for a public proposal call, with the possibility of a public-private partnership as one of the options for financing versus a regular build-lease.

As I tried to explain to the member yesterday, the Government of Nunavut in this health budget is bringing forward a major proposal for Mental Health and suicide.

-----
The Telehealth project is one area where the department is hoping to realise cost savings from travel and at the same time provide specialised services to the smaller communities. We are supportive of this pilot initiative although members have requested an evaluation so that we can be certain that the expense of establishing this technology is worth the effort.

Members are concerned it does so in a more open and transparent way than has been done in the past. While P-3 projects have unique qualities, they nevertheless involve the spending of public money.

***************

-----
Some of the numbers Cumberland Resources has budgeted for the Meadow Bank project are as follows:

-----
As Cumberland Resources are committed to using local preference for goods and services where possible the scale of the project would require a yearly re-supply of thirteen thousand tons of dry cargo along with twenty million dollars litres of fuel per year.
*************** 
tamakkua usigaqtautikkuuqtitaugajaqput ammalu ukiukkut aqqutiqarluni Meadowbanksmut.
-----

If we were to get that work out of the way this fiscal year Mr. Speaker, I would think realistically the comments that are attributed to the Minister of Health and Social Services of the possibility of actual construction work taking place about 18 months from now, it is probably a realistic target that we would look at.

***************

-----
Mr. Speaker, I would like to ask the Minister of Finance if he is at all looking at some ways of adapting or changing that capital planning process and budgeting process so it is more suitable to us here in Nunavut.

Developing a capital budget in the fall rather than in the spring.

-----
I have given it some thought as to the possible options with my officials and in fact with the former past Government of the Northwest Territories of which I was one member and other members of this House were involved.
*************** 
pirjuanut parnaktillugit aviktaulaursimammata pirjuanut turaangajut.
-----
There was at some point in their capital planning process a split of the division of the capital.
*************** 
piliriaqasuungullutik ukiaksalisaaqtillugu kiinaujait nalauttaaqtauningit pilirianguvaktutik uirngaakkut.

They did it earlier in the fall and did the main estimate review in the spring.

-----
But it was found to be very impractical from the perspective that it took as much work to present one main estimate and capital estimate document and the whole process of going through preparations, reviews with standing committees as it did.
*************** 
pijariakinnirsaugaluaqtuni aviktuqtugu atausiaqtugu marruaqtinngingaaqtugu.

There is minimal work involved in doing it once versus splitting it twice.

-----
So that was a factor given the fact that our Human Resources are as we all know are working overtime in a lot of situations to meet schedules and meet demands and commitments.
*************** 
maannaujukkut pilirittiarasugiaqarnarmat amma akaunirsaulluni katisimanasuktugit.

At this time it is probably more prudent and practical to try to keep it together.

-----
But to bring it up earlier into the process where we would we have a February or early, mid, start on the budget review process as far as main estimate review and capital estimate reviews in this House to allow adequate time for that to happen, it would have minimum impact to the delivery of those programs in future fiscal years.

That information will be available earlier and all members know there is a certain amount of scrutiny on the capital expenditures of the government and would think we would save a lot of time by having that available earlier.

We have agreed that with the past government we hardly saw Inuit doctors, nurses or health professionals. Mr. Chairperson, since health and social services is very important do you have any plans on training and education so that we can get Inuit doctors and nurses or medical specialists or professionals.

First of all with the support of the House of Nunavut, last year we were able to put in 600 thousand dollars into the first Nunavut nursing program and that is one of the first training programs to be able to fill the capacity with our nursing staff in particular.

Under that same program we have started an internal working group called the Nayait working group that is looking at the recruitment and retention issues.

There are relatively few schools in the south or in Canada that turn out physicians, and of course it turns out what kind of physician the person wants to be a general practitioner or a surgeon or going into gynaecology or other fields.

So as a government no we haven't started any type of doctor training program, but through the department of education we have the ability to help students, especially aboriginal students and pursue those types of options and careers if they intend to do that.

It's expected that the installation will take place in Pangnirtung in September of 2000, Igloolik in October of 2000, and yes, Mr. Chairman, Arctic Bay in November of 2000.

But after saying that Mr. Chairman some of the advances that we would like to do in tele-health are dictated by the opportunity and indeed the concerns with the information highway and the technical and the technology that is out there right now in the smaller communities.

So that opportunity is there and we're moving forward so, the answer to the Member's question is a strong yes and that we're hoping to have that tele-health set-up in Arctic Bay in 2000 and at the same time Nanisivik to be able to access tele-health via Arctic Bay.

The opportunity is there Mr. Chairman, so that the Government of Nunavut doesn't re-invent the wheel but to take some of the experiences and some of the set backs some of the other jurisdictions have had with tele-health and be able to use that experience so that we don't make the same mistake.

One of the things that we are trying to put into place Mr. Chairman, is tele-health were we wouldn't have to send someone out to be examined by a doctor.

As you know, if the plane is full so if there's specific incidences where a patient was left behind unless that patient needed to be sequestered away from other people joining them in seats or if there was a medical condition that had to keep the person behind.

With specific incidences of being left behind I am aware of some of them being brought to my attention on further review we found that the planes were full or in the case that I just explained where they didn't have a return ticket for a specific date while the other people did.

So it would be like me showing up at the airport, Rosemary is ready to go home and she has a ticket and my ticket says that I am leaving today and she says well I want to leave today too but hers doesn't say today it's just an open ticket. So they put me on and not her because Rosemary has an open ticket and mine has a specific date.

Mr. Chairman the Member brought up I think, a very serious issue and concern that I have also heard from the people in the community with regards to the bonus being paid out to the nurses.

-----
Under the current collective agreement, I understand there is a mechanism there for a market rate supplement to be paid where a particular occupation is considered to have a shortage of that position or occupation or profession.
***************

-----
You can introduce a market rate to be able to secure, retain and recruit particular individuals in through that said profession in this case, Mr. Chairman, the profession of nursing has been acknowledged to be experiencing short falls in staffing and the hirings and availability of individuals to work.

Therefore and thus fits the description of the MOU for market supplement in the collective agreement and therefore and thus the money was paid out, the bonuses were paid out brought forward by the Department of Health and Social Services.

-----
The problem with that as the member rightfully points out, was that some of our senior people were working at the hospital for example here in Iqaluit who have been there for in some cases over 20 years and were not eligible for that bonus because they did not fall under the collective agreement description of a nurse. They were As or Certified Nursing Assistants.

I'm aware of that, the Minister of Human Resources is aware of that, and the Member had asked me questions on it in Rankin.

So there is no doubt in anyone's mind that you need some type of enhanced facility here in the Baffin region.

The problem we run into Mr. Chairperson is the cost.

The total cost of the facility which about ballpark figure of 25 million.

That is the figure we are working on.

In the P-3 project the Baffin regional health and social services board along with the Keewatin health and social services board and the Kitikmeot health and social services board with the Government of the Northwest Territories had chosen the developers of choice being our own regional development corporations.
***************

The next step in the Baffin region is to do some work on the lot and do some feasibility engineering studies.

So the reason for no budget in the Department of Health and Social Services because under the private public partnership that money is brought forward and paid for by the development corporations.

So there is no money within the budget to do that from the government of Nunavut because the Qikiqtaaluk Corporation has paid for that money in this case.

In this part of the phase other things have to happen.

An architectural review, the design of the building, and then Mr. Chairperson a business case has to be brought forward saying OK this is the building you want.

Mr. Chairman, when I was talking about this earlier, the proposed medical travel policy that we have in place, one of the things that we did look at and the member will be pleased to know, we are hoping to incorporate it and we will bring that policy to this House and to the members, once we finalize it.

This has been in the newspaper even, whereby a patient was lost down south because he had no escort to take him where he needed to go. Being unilingual, it just so happened that someone came across him who was not related to the hospital staff and so he was able to get assistance from a fellow Inuk that came across him.

-----
Mr. Chairman, as the member knows, because he was quite vociferous with the government operations committee and indeed the infrastructure committee which I chaired in the previous assembly which reviewed in minute detail the P3 process efforts from the Coles Group and Arthur Anderson on the P3 process, there are pros and cons to all processes.

-----
After saying that as the member knows, if we use the sliding figure of 25 million dollars for Iqaluit and 14 for the other two facilities that is 53 million dollars for the three health facilities that I think everyone in this House and in Nunavut realize that we need.

In Repulse maybe they have to develop a whole new lot and have to remove the total health centre that is in place.

I can say the program functional review is based upon input from the community, and the committee that we are trying to set up at the community level in the community of Igloolik and Repulse Bay will be one that they have had input on.

I want to commit again to the member that after this year we will review that 5 thousand dollars as requested by the Baffin Leaders' Summit, and the Mayors from the Kitikmeot and the Keewatin to make sure that it is sustainable and acceptable. At this time that was the only money that I had available in the budget to allocate to the communities.

However Mr. Chairman, I can say as a foster parent, a person who has had a foster child in their care, that in most cases that I am aware of in Iqaluit, I know quite a few of the families, and I know Mr. Anawak for example is a foster parent. Ninety percent of the families probably or higher don't take children based on their financial remuneration that they receive.

-----
Now the costs, I think this is what the member was trying to get to, for example the travel in the Baffin, 7 million 910 thousand, and in the Kivalliq 7 million 727 thousand, materials and supplies in the Baffin 2 million 727 thousand.

Materials and supplies are more in the Baffin 2.6 million as to Kivalliq 90 to a hundred thousand.

-----
For example, why travel is so high in the Keewatin is because we are sending people directly out of Keewatin because we do not have a health facility there.
***************

So many the people then would go from Arviat directly to Winnipeg and so on.

Whereas here in the Baffin they would just go from Lake Harbour to Iqaluit in most cases because we have the hospital and only in extreme circumstances would we send someone from Iqaluit to Ottawa.

So we will have to consider in the future to see if this kind of hunting would deter Nunavut hunters and I know that Greenland and Canada have had agreements to hunt in their own areas and I am sure they have been adhering to our policies.

The subsidy so to speak, they are not different subsidies, it's a general what it costs us to produce the product to the communities and that was the answer to Mr. Tootoo's original question, one of the factors involved in that, so one of the factors is the general costs.

The subsidy basically is that we have to sell it at a specific amount of money until such time as we get approval to raise the costs, usually in October.

I realize that response kind of outlines the mandate of Petroleum Products. But looking at subsidy by territory, customer and class document that the minister tabled in Rankin Inlet, it has a definite subsidy for the different types of heating, motor, aviation, non-motor, gasoline, naptha, Jet A-1 and AV-Gas.

Mr. Chairman, in light of that then I am just wondering if a clearer definition of what these numbers are, they are not an actual subsidy then but an operating loss from the Petroleum Products based on its operations, it's not a subsidy it's a loss.

Maybe just at this point in time, I would like to thank him for that, but I would like to ask the minister as was noted in Rankin Inlet that we're losing money on the sale of fuel products to the Federal Government. I don't know, to me I can't see why we are doing that and the minister at that time I believe indicated that we would be reviewing it.

I was just wondering if they have had a chance, or if there are any plans in the works for reviewing the subsidies.

Mr. Chairman, I guess I am a little confused now, Mr. Mrazek had indicated that the function to provide those technical services for Housing were last year or prior to the formation of the Corporation, of a stand along Corporation, included in the technical services division of Public Works.

So is then the minister stating that although that big chunk of work that goes along with providing those technical services, the number of staff that she has in her technical division is going to remain the same.

I thought I understood but then I asked if those numbers then in Public Works, total numbers of funded positions would, should I would think if they are going to transfer those positions it would effect that number and the minister indicated that it wouldn't. That's why I was a little confused and I am glad to hear then that they are going to be transferred over.

I am sorry for the confusion, I just got confused there I guess. Mr. Chairman, maybe in light of the time, I don't know if anyone wants to ask more questions, but if you want to ask more questions now or I know that some members have to leave.

Mr. Speaker, there have been a number of questions in this House recently raising the important issue of preserving the traditional knowledge of our elders, Inuit Qaujimajatuqangit, and using this wisdom to make the programs and services that this government provides more relevant to the needs and the aspirations of Nunavummiut.

So it's a matter I think of trying to find out if there is some sort of medium between those two classifications that can apply in a situation where some of our people may not be fully commercial divers but on a seasonal type of basis as is with the clam divers.

If he is doing it and trying to gain income selling the clams, as is the case with the Qikiqtarjuaq clam divers, then it's a different scenario because they are diving for commercial gain and that is where the problem of this whole situation lies.

You need to be certified as a commercial diver versus a recreational diver because you are gaining income as a result of your diving activities.

But in the sense of knowing a bit more, having just been to Cambridge Bay and having spoken to some of the officials over there, the Cambridge Bay project specifically it is scrunched down, because as you know there was a tender notice out earlier because of the magnitude of this project.

Because of the size of the project there are some requirements for special order items such as the Glue-lams, the steel beam structures that have to have work drawings carried out to certain specifications, millwork done by the manufacturers.

Mr. Chairman, what I was asking is, based on the information that I have heard and the answers provided, would it be safe to assume that the Department of Public Works on all our existing government buildings could put an objective plan prioritizing the need for maintenance or overhauls or anything like that on any of these facilities based on the records that it keeps.

Mr. Chairman, I understand that it is not the department's mandate to do that, but given the wealth of information that the department seems to have on all these facilities, I was just wondering that wouldn't it be safe to assume that the department has the potential, given the information that is has, in doing that.

-----
The reason for that is that the program was identical, the criteria was identical and basically we didn't have any problem regarding the site location because usually the airport is a flat piece of land as you know so even the foundation didn't vary from each other.

For example you build one airport building and you put the same design in different communities, you have a legal obligation to pay the architect his fee, which depending on the number of the uses, the first and second use is roughly 25 or 35% plus disbursements.

The thing about this is I have been involved in community consultations and there is an approximate budget put forward on a project.

-----
When you have your designers coming in from Public Works and you get people into a meeting, 20 or 30 people into a meeting and ideas start circulating around, this sometimes happens that people have their expectations built up pretty high in what they can receive in a new facility.

-----
It is a misconception there because it is hard to convince people that are involved in community consultations that this facility is X number of dollars and a lot of people do not have that idea how much their ideas are going to cost extra for these facilities.
***************

That is why I think it is important and for the last couple of weeks we have been emphasising that the design and what we are putting into facilities today have got to be realistic.

It is no secret that we probably need anywhere between 125 and 150 million dollars in capital to build schools in Nunavut in the next six or seven years.

The point I am getting to here is that once there is a standard set for square footage and what is costs to build a facility and design then other communities expectations will be there to.

Architects are architects and people give them figures what to build. This is how much money there is and we want you to design a facility based on this figure and sometimes they are not told what the figure is.

So they put the little extras in which is great, I think we all want beautiful facilities, but I think when it gets down to schools and the costs of them, there should be maybe a standard there.

-----
I will argue this with people that a square box may not be the best one to build and it might not be cost effective because it depends on factors in regards to the price of materials at the time, because the price of lumber fluctuates every year.

If we let the architects get out of control and contractors not being accountable and the timelines are very important on the tendering process, I realize that more than anybody.

If you have a long window on the tendering process, then you are going to get more bidders on it and that benefits us all.

I am not really saying that the Cambridge Bay scenario is going to be the standard, and the Cambridge Bay scenario may come in if there are four or five bidders, cheaper than a school in community C, a square box.

If we have to live within our means by building facilities that are maybe standard across Nunavut and cost less, and do not have what we want, I think the bottom line here is delivering a facility that our kids can go to and it is warm and it is pleasant and it is bright and it is not going to cost 30 to 40% more than what we are used to.

We accept whether it is just a very plain simple design. The direction that we are getting from the members is that we should just get very plain, simple, square boxes to the communities and make beautiful ones for the south and other places, because it is too expensive to make beautiful stuff, they are just Inuit so just give them simple, basic, square designs.

-----
Mr. Speaker, Mr. Quassa reminded us of the prominent role that elections and referenda have played in Nunavut's history citing the plebiscites on the division of the NWT, the new boundary between the two territories and the vote on the Nunavut final Land Claim Agreement.

I agree with Mr. Quassa when he said, "it is worth thinking about the history because it reminds us of the strength of our democratic process in Nunavut.

-----
Mr. Speaker, our standing committee is interested in developing a made in Nunavut elections office and we were extremely pleased to hear Mr. Quassa that, "NTI would be prepared to work with the Government of Nunavut and other parties to explore the question of such a central elections office."

Mr. Quassa noted that the potential cost savings as well as the opportunity to share and learn from one another's experience in conducting elections points to the value of examining the committee's suggestions closely.

Mr. Speaker, there could be obstacles in creating a one-stop electoral office or common electoral list but the important thing is that a partnership with NTI in exploring these issues and seeing what we can accomplish working together.

My question is, given that the budget had not yet been introduced at that time and given the number of times that ministers have refused to answer questions on the budget items until it came up during committee of the whole review of the estimates, does the minister now believe that members should have violated budget secrecy and raised specific concerns on specific budget items in advance of the introduction of the main estimates into the House.

-----
One of the reasons why they did not go ahead with this project is because they said that they had to consult with the people of Hall Beach in regards to the design of the project. The people of Hall Beach have been consulted already that is why the architectural drawings are 75 percent complete.

Should there be an emergency and there has to be a cleanup I assume it would be very expensive to do so because you can't just dump the oil you have to package the bad gas first properly and have it shipped out professionally and carefully.

If that should happen and we need to do that I just want to remind you the 800 thousand litres is no longer that same amount. It is 675 thousand litres as it is slowly evaporating and dissipating, or being used by four wheelers because it works fine for them but for the skidoo's gasoline there is a problem with that.

-----
The other thing we should look at is the short term strategy and how we can better put it in affect because the major concerns when we consulted the communities was the cost and rental charges for employed persons and people under social programs.
***************

They choose not to work and that is resulting in cheaper housing.

The construction of the houses during our consultation visits was another concern.

Inuit Qaujimajatuqangit should be more used in the construction of the houses.

The 100 units that are being proposed I am very happy to see something is being created for Nunavut especially something that is very useful once we approve the main estimates.

There are still a lot of people that require housing.

But I know there are a lot of people our there even with the 100 units we are still going to have many homeless people not exactly homeless in the communities but we should try and provide homeless shelters in the communities in the interim.
***************

I think we should entertain that idea in the communities.

Here in Nunavut because you have no shelter for the homeless I think there should be some kind of accommodations.

The minister and her staff said the reason for the corporation administering the capital this year was basically because of the new Nunavummi Nangminiqaqtunik Ikajuuti policy coming into place.

The Baffin Region, which is almost double the size of the other two regions, basically cut in half as far as staff to run the programs and services to the region.

I just wondered if other than the fact that I am sure that the staff there have been shown this and I don't know how comfortable they may be in saying that we think there should be more or not.
***************

But I am sure that there are people out there in the LHOs and in the communities that are taking a look at the numbers and scratching their heads themselves wondering why or how that happened.

It is too bad, and it is not fault of the minister and the staff, that it has taken that long to do that. But I am glad to see that it has come back to that type of a structure.

-----
I guess with the structure then, what we are looking at as far as the structure goes and what we were presented with isn't really the structure that is going to be. I am just wondering when we will see a final structure for the Nunavut Housing Corporation and what it will actually look like.
***************

Now are those going to be on top of the ones that are listed in the organizational chart. I believe that it was about 11 or 12 positions.
***************

Are those going to be on top of these ones, because it was stated earlier that those positions were still in the Department of Public Works and not moved over to the Housing Corporation.

Then I am just wondering how, I don't know if I totally misunderstood, but I thought that we were told the other day that those positions were still in Public Works and how it could show up in two different plans.

We are under the Nunavut Housing Corporation and we have already agreed to the Department of Public Works.

The Nunavut Housing Corporation is a stand-alone department.

Although the bodies are shown in the organizational chart the budget is remaining at Public Works.

-----
The approval from Cabinet and the Financial Management Board when we set up the corporation was that the bodies could come over but we could not yet transfer the dollars because the budget has not yet been approved.
*************** 
utaqijariaqasuta katimajit iluunnainu pijariiqata kiinaujatsamaallu naammagijausimaliqata.
-----
We would have to wait until the committee of the whole has completed and the budget is approved.
*************** 
qanuigiarunnaniarsuta kiinaujatsamaat sanajulirijikkuni tunnirutilugi illulirijimmarikkunnu.
-----
Then we could actually physically remove the dollars from Public Works over to Housing Corp.

-----
So at this point the positions are under Housing Corp the dollars for those positions are at Public Works until such time as the budget has been approved and a proper transfer of the dollars can be moved over.

Mr. Chairman, is one to assume that in the Main Estimates when we talk about the total budget for compensation, 3 million 85 thousand 208 dollars, will increase as a result of the transfer of those positions.

Basically what happened is our Main Estimates were completed prior to our approval as a separate corporation.

So the compensation, our compensation that you are shown there is basically for 38 employees.

-----
That is one of the reasons why we cannot, although we have the approval as a stand alone corporation, we have the approval for the 11 technical positions, that is why we cannot get the actual dollars at this specific time because the Main Estimates have not been approved.
***************

Although they were tabled and presented they have not been approved.

-----
Is there any mechanism that is going to encourage the private sector in this community to build some units at a cost effective manner to rent out to people. At this point I know for a fact that the government units that we subsidise are all taken up and you have to be a Government of Nunavut employee to get into them.

But now I am mixed up because I thought that the funding was immediately available. Now that I look at the details, under housing and this amount of 19 million, I know we haven't got there yet in the details, but at the time of the Task Force when it just started, there was no money at all to begin with, except for the estimates.

I have been informed that some of the communities in the lower sea level areas should have breakwaters.

As communities we get our funding every year, and there is different amount of funding we get every year.

The community Council should be listened to when they have problems with the inadequate funding and the Department should do their best to provide them with adequate assistance or adequate funding.
*************** 
upinnarani nunaliit namminiq qaujimajut qatsinik kinnguumatsimmangaarmik aulanniarlugit nunalimmigut gavamani amma aulangutingit nunalimmigut.

But if you give the community just a little bit of money then you have only a limited amount of money to run your community.

Their pay rates stay the same although they have been working for a number of years for the same Hamlet Council. This has been a problem raised by some employees of the Hamlet Councils and they have to pay for their rents.

If they are home owners and they have utilities to pay. Sometimes they can not keep up with the payment because they do not make enough money.

-----
Like, my colleague from Sanikiluaq, they spent I don't know how many millions of dollars putting in a facility there and when they build facilities in that part of the country there is obviously a need for artificial ice.
***************

That's how I guess this debate got started, because he could only use his arena for four to six weeks a year.

But in a place like Sanikiluaq I think that I can sit here, and I live in Baker Lake, but I think they need artificial ice.

Because I know how important an arena is to the community in regards to utilizing it and I think if Sanikiluaq can utilize their arena for six or seven months of the year, I think it would probably help everybody.

-----
Now the circumstances surrounding the Rankin artificial ice, a group of business people in that community have decided upon themselves that, hey we can extend the season here for another two or three months, run hockey schools and people from my community can go to the hockey schools and Arviat and things like that.

We went through this earlier in the week in regards to the Cambridge Bay School and they want a larger gym, and that is a regional centre and they can afford to contribute some of the costs of this project.

I think that the department has to form a policy on artificial ice, and if a community can fast track and raise more money than another community then I think it should be considered.

When we built these buildings 15 or 20 years ago, we didn't think we would need artificial ice, but like we heard the minister say, global warming is a fact and if we are going to build these facilities then we should build them so that we can utilize them for what they are for.

I think looking at 250 thousand to put artificial ice into a community arena to utilize it for the children that we keep talking about in the future of our great territory, we should look at things like this.

I myself don't know where my community is on artificial ice, it hasn't been a topic yet, because we live farther inland and it is colder and we have ice by the end of October until the end of May.

Like I say, some day if we can agree and a policy is in place that we can install artificial ice through corporate donations or community fund raising or through bingo's which are always being held in our community halls, that some day we may have some NHL players come out of Nunavut, which I would be very proud of.

Thank you to our fellow member for raising this question and asking for my input.

What happened in Pangnirtung was we were looking for a location for our sewage lagoon, which was right above the dump.
***************

-----
So we located a certain part of the land that would be a sewage lagoon but at the time I happened to be the Chairman for the Fisheries and Oceans Committee and there are extreme high winds that occur in Pangnirtung and it is very close.
*************** 
qaujilauqtugut kisiani aujakkut anuraakkauninganut siurarmik piqsilisuungumat ammalu isumalilaursimagatta tainna imiqtarvi ininganituinnarniaqqat suragiilaarninganik.
-----
But we noticed anyway that during the summer time because due to the high winds we get sand storms and we saw that this water reservoir soon be ruined if it stayed in that location.
*************** 
taimali imarmiutalirijikkut iqqanaijaqatigiqattarsimajakka uqalaursimallutik matusigiaqarniraqtutik imiqtarvingmi pijjutigillugu sururujuuninganik taikanngat iqaluliriviup kuvvisarvinganik.
-----
Then the Fisheries and Oceans people that I had worked with said that they have to close down that water reservoir because of the pollutants that were coming out from the tailings from the fish plant.
*************** 
kisiani qimirruaqtugu panniqtuuq qaqqalimmarialuummat sijjanganit takullugu.
-----
But if you look at Pangnirtung it is very mountainous and if you look at it by the shore.
*************** 
taimma tauvani iniksaqattiarmat nunalingnut qaniluanngittumik.
-----
There is an adequate looking spot over there that is not to close to the community itself.
*************** 
tamanna tukisinarsikannituksauvuq qanuq pigilaurnirmangaaq kinaaluqarvik ammalu imiqtarvik ammalu kisut isumagijaulaurmangaata nuktauniaqtillugu kinaaluqarvik.

So I hope this explains a little bit on what history was behind the sewage lagoon and the water reservoir and what the factors were in relocating that sewage lagoon.

So it fits under the Town by-laws and the revenue that we would be generating off those leases would be than generated by the Town. We must maintain certain land at that airport but because of zoning requirements for aircraft clearance.

But other land out there the Town was concerned there was not enough controls in it. It was growing topsy tervy.

Mr. Speaker, as I have tried to relate in this house over the past few months, and give credit where credit is due Mr. Speaker, the member of Kimmirut and Cape Dorset has repeatedly brought up the concern of Kimmirut for a social worker.

When people are sent outside of the community for example to Edmonton, when they have to be incarcerated and when they have been away from home for a long time they start losing their self-esteem.

The treatment programs are usually in another division completely because if a person is interested in treatment and healing, what we want to do is have it initiated by the community while we are support people. We would be more than happy to encourage the communities to ask for our support but they are the ones that have to initiate the healing and treatment programs and trying to help their inmates adjust.

This concerns inmates when they return to their communities after they have been in corrections. It seems that all they get is welcome back, I think there should be some aftercare because welcoming a person back and not doing anything to help them does not really contribute to correcting one's mistakes or lifestyles.

-----
When a person has been through the court and jail system he seems to be just dropped off as soon as he gets out of jail and I think there should be some proper treatment or healing programs. They should have some counselling provided to them by way of interviewing and things like that because they seem to have no other place to go once they have been through the justice system.

I think there should be some follow up because the women inmates seem to get all the help that they need. However, if you look at this in the future, although I was interested in starting up a program I would probably have to raise some funds for healing programs for our male inmates.

Sometimes their family members are no longer around, they lose their house and their equipment and their property, and I know that there is no form of assistance given to ex-inmates. The social workers are responsible to take care of these inmates that are coming home and they have on top of that the responsibility for example, if a guy beats up his wife the social worker has to work with the offender and the victim at the same time.

Some of the people have to go through the court system, some of them are charged for summary convictions if they committed a crime. According to the Inuit way perhaps they could have had an opportunity to resolve their issues before going to the court, and sometimes individuals have to wait a long time to go to court, both the offender and the victim.

What we are trying to do in the communities is have the JP and the Nunavut court work together, and the Justice Committees work together as well in the communities with the JP right in the community as long as they are willing to take on those responsibilities.

I am just curious because I know the one in our area didn't work very well because of the distance.

I don't know I just want to know how those camps operate, did it fail, why, those things.

We would like to do as much as we can for the outpost camp program.

-----
I guess part of the problem in the past was that there was probably not adequate preparations to start an outpost camp program.
*************** 
ilangit upirngiviit aulaniqaqtiarniqsaulauqput ilanginnit.
-----
So in the outpost camp program, of course some worked better than others.
***************

We are in the process of setting one up in Arviat as I speak right now where the camp is about 100 miles up the Goose River.

-----
What we want to do is promote the outpost camp program but in the process make sure that the people who operate those outpost camp programs have the training required, have the necessary knowledge of whatever their responsibilities.
*************** 
suli, isumavunga saqqiikannirunnarutta upirngivinnut pilirianik uvvaluunniit tussirautitaqakkaniqpat upirngivissanut takugiarajaqpavut pillugu saqqirasuarattigu.
-----
Again, I think that if we can get more outpost camp programs or if there are more proposals for outpost camp programs we would look at it because we want to promote that.
*************** 
katiqatiqalauqpugut nunaliralaarmiunik aulattijunik amma angirrarijaujunik najurassanik iqqatuqtaminirnut ilinniaqtikkanniqullugit.

We just had a gathering of outpost camp operators and alternative homes to give them more training.

-----
So I would just respond by saying that in the past, maybe part of the problem was inadequate training, inadequate funding or inadequate knowledge of what the responsibilities were.
***************

However, we will provide all that if we are going to initiate an outpost camp program.

I will be making my general comments because I think it has been four or five years that I have been a Justice of the Peace and I would like to talk about some of the suggestions or some thoughts that I have had on it.
*************** 
iqqaqtuijiralaangusimaliqtillunga, akaunngiliurutinik takuqattaqsimavunga iqqaqtuijiralaangullunga.

Since I have been working as a Justice of the Peace, I have seen some of the problems of a Justice of the Peace myself.
*************** 
qaujimajunga ilangit akaunngiliurutiit aaqqipalliagattigu saqqiqattaqtut iqqaqtuijiralaangujunut.
-----
I know that we are starting to resolve some of the problems that occurred for Justices of the Peace.
*************** 
uvannut akaunngiliurutiujut atuagait maligailluunniit attuaniqanngimmata inuit iliqqusinginnut.
-----
To me the problem is that the regulations or the policies do not reflect the Inuit way of life.
*************** 
taimaak akaunngiliurutiit saqqiqattalauqput.
-----
That is where the problem kept occurring.
*************** 
iqqaqtuijiralaangullunga, maligiaqaqpugut atuagait maligailluunniit.
-----
As a Justice of the Peace, you cannot bypass these regulations or policies.
*************** 
atuqsimajakkulli, tamakkua atuagait iqqaqtuijiralaanut attuaniqariaqaqput inuit iliqqusingannut.
-----
According to my experience, these regulations governing the Justice of the Peace should reflect the Inuit way of life.
*************** 
iqqaqtuijiralaangulluni piliriaqarluni mikijumik pirajattuminirmit pigganaqtummariuvuq piluaqtumi maligiaqarluni atuagarnik.
-----
When you are a Justice of the Peace and you have to deal with a person who has committed a summary crime it becomes very hard especially when you have to follow the rules that you cannot bypass.
*************** 
inuit surusiulauqsimagamanit iqqaumajuinnaujussauvugut, pikammannirutta uqaqatigijaugajaratta iniqtiqtaulutalu akaunngiliurutaujuq saqqikanniqunagu.
-----
As Inuit people since I was a child I am sure some of us can remember, that if we did something wrong we would be talked to and disciplined that way so that the problem that occurred would not reoccur.
*************** 
iniqtiqtauqattajuvugut uqausikkut pikammanniraigatta.
-----
So we used to be disciplined orally if we did something wrong.
*************** 
taimaak iniqtirijjusiit atuqtummariuvajuvut.
-----
That way the discipline used to work a lot.
*************** 
iqqaqtuijiralaangulluni taimaivvissaunngilaq.
-----
As a Justice of the Peace you cannot do that.
*************** 
taimaa akaunngiliurut takusimavara.
-----
So that is where I have seen the problem.
*************** 
kingullirmi, tukisisimavara nunalimmiutauluni qaujimaqattautijuinnaummata, piluaqtumi iqqaqtuijiralaangulluni.
-----
Secondly, I understood the fact that when you live in a community everyone knows each other, especially when you are a Justice of the Peace.
*************** 
nunaqqatigiittillugit ilagiinginnaukkajummata nunalimmiut pigganarivarali ikajurasugianga ilannik.
-----
When you are from the same community you tend to be related to each and every one in the community and I find it pretty hard having to try someone who is your relative.
*************** 
iqqaqtuijiralaangullunga, isumavajuvunga iqqaqtuijiralaat nunalinni aullaqtitauqattaqpata asianut nunalimmut iqqaqtuititaunngingaarlutik ilagijaminnik.
-----
As a Justice of the Peace, I used to think that the JP locally should go to another person in a different community rather than trying a relative in the home community.
*************** 
qaujimajunga akitugajarmat kisianili tamanna aaqqigutaujunnarmat isumagisimajakkut, asianut nunalimmut iqqaqtuijaqtuqattarlutik pirajassimajunik.
-----
I know that it would cost money but that is one of the solutions that I have thought of, going to a different community to try an individual who has been charged.
*************** 
qaujimajunga tamanna akaunngiliurutiliusuungummat uvannut ilagijarnik iqqaqtuigiaqarniq.
-----
I know that this has created a personal problem for me when you have to try your own relative in the court.
*************** 
ilagiinik siquttirijunnarmat taimaittillugit.
-----
This breaks the family unity when that happens.
*************** 
tamajja akaunngiliurutiujuq takusimajara iqqaqtuijiralaangullunga.
-----
So I have seen that problem as a Justice of the Peace.
***************

I apologize for coughing and I forgot my glass of water up there.
***************

-----
I also would like to stress that the elders take part in the court system and when they help the judge out when the judge is trying an individual, these elders who are sitting up there with the Judge they don't even receive an honoraria.
*************** 
uasataaqpanngilat qimauqqakainnaqpattutik iqqanaijaaminik angirraminik akiliqtauvagatillu uasamilluunniit.
-----
They are not paid a penny and they have to get away although they have work at home and they are not even paid a penny.

-----
I have seen that myself personally, these elders really do not know the means how to make money so this has to be considered and this needs to be resolved and if the Justices of the Peace could be allowed to verbally reprimand the individual.
*************** 
qaujimajunga tamanna takuqattaqsimagakku akaunngiliurut aaqqittaugiariaqaqtunilu.

I know that I have encountered this problem and this needs to be resolved.

In regards to northern policing, the guidelines have to be followed.

Mr. Speaker, I believe that it was during committee of the whole that I asked the minister in regards to these units and the money that she had referred to in her budget for the leasing of units.
***************

-----
She had indicated then that it was on a five year, they were looking at five year leases or something short term fix until, the plan was to eventually move people from those units to government owned units over time.
*************** 
qaujimavugut atuqtuagait ingirrainnarmata ammalu inulimaanut iglugijaq sanajausimalituarami piqutigijaummat gavamakkunnut.

As we know leases are an ongoing thing and a public housing unit once it is built is an asset to the government.
***************

So I would just like again to ask the minister as a result of her comments here today, have those plans changed.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, I would just like to ask the minister, from what I just heard this morning in the minister's response to the member from Baker Lake, is that the minister is planning on some changes already to what she had already indicated earlier in the session and what the recommendations were, to my understanding, that the Task Force had made and she had accepted.

There are very good ideas from other members that we can address and that's all I indicated, is that the member here just asked me earlier if we can lease from other communities and put some units somewhere else where the need is.

If we can lease six units for instance in a bigger community right away, instead of building those units we can do that. Because recommendations are just that, they are recommendations.

Mr. Speaker, the cost of the new plant in Clyde River is about 4.5 million to 5 million dollars.
***************

-----
So it isn't actually locating the plant, relocating the plant.
***************

There has been some concern, Mr. Speaker, where the power plant is located in the middle of the community.

In actuality Mr. Speaker, in some cases some of the communities would like to keep the plant where it is because we are using it as a benefit to the community.

For example, in Taloyoak, the plant is in the middle of the community and the last time I was there, about a month and a half ago, the plant was being used for the reheat of the water.

So that is working well there.

Mr. Speaker, actually there are two kinds of questions there.

One is on the emission standards of the power plant.

As the member know the Power Corporation as any other organization or corporation has to follow the emission standards set out by the Canadian Government which regulates Federal emission standards for smoke and so on.

Mr. Speaker, on the second question.

-----
Mr. Speaker, on the second part of the member's question, no there are actually no dollars allocated within the budget or the capital budget of the new Nunavut Power Corporation for the actual relocation of a plant in the 20 year capital plan for the Northwest Territories Power Corporation and the Nunavut Power Corporation.
***************

If a particular community made a formal request to me as the Minister responsible for the Power Corporation, if there was a health concern, if there was a safety concern and so on that a plant had to be removed then I would look at it in that respect.

*************** 
ilingalluni namiinniariangani tuavinnartumi aulautiqarvimmi immaqattauq aulautiqangipata, uuttuutigilugu aulautiqarvi ikuallaniqat.
-----
That point being the location of emergency power at a time of an incident where the power would be unavailable, for example with the power plant burning down.

In Iqaluit for example we have located, because the community of Iqaluit is a bit older, two power plants, one located on the Federal Road and one located as the member knows, on the top of the hill.
***************

-----
In each of our communities, Mr. Speaker, under emergency preparation, which I believe is under the Honourable Mr. Anawak's office, we have in conjunction with the Department of Education, we have allowed for emergency shelters.

-----
So for example, Mr. Speaker, if the power went off for two or three days we know that the nursing station for example, has a standby generator for their operations. We know that the schools for example, Mr. Speaker, have a standby generator that would be able to house individuals and so on.

-----
The costs Mr. Speaker, of putting extra generators and locating them at a separate point in a community based on a plant catching fire or some other catastrophe occurring right now is not fiscally available to us as a government, or indeed to the Nunavut Power Corporation.
***************

***************

When you are looking at the power plant itself, the power plant does not have a backup generator adjacent to it in most cases, or located near it.
*************** 
taimaimalu, uqaqtii, aturiakanniriaqanniaratta kiinaujani nuttitirinirmu amma initsami asinginnu aulautinu.

Therefore and thus, Mr. Speaker, we would have to spend more money to relocate and allocate other resources and other generators.

In our case, Mr. Speaker, in the case of diesel generators, storage facilities somewhere else in the communities so that we would be able to provide that backup emergency plan.
***************

Mr. Speaker, there is no budget for that.

After its introduction, the Standing Committee decided to place ads in the northern media, requesting input and feedback from Nunavut residents on this initiative.

While some agree with the initiative of making July 9 a holiday, others are upset that they will be losing a long-established August long weekend.

-----
(interpretation ends) During its meeting last week with the sponsoring Minister to review the Bill, the Standing Committee was advised that there would be significant cost implications to the Government, hamlets and the private sector if the Government were to add a new public holiday to the calendar, rather than just replacing the first Monday in August with July 9, as the Bill currently sets out to do.

The Standing Committee is also aware of the fact that negotiations with the NEU are still in progress.
***************

The Standing Committee has directed me as the Chair of the Committee to meet with Nunavut's mayors to formally seek their views and input on this initiative.
***************

I am hopeful that a consensus will emerge from this meeting.

-----
(interpretation ends) I would also thank the sponsoring Minister for his commitment to providing the information that his department used to calculate the different cost implications associated with this initiative, and for any information on how hamlets and their employees would be affected.
***************

-----
Mr. Speaker, it is important that issues like this, issues that affect the daily lives of all Nunavut residents, be fully discussed and debated, and that the widest possible consultations be held before final decisions are made.
*************** 
ammalu misitar uqaqtii, uqausirigakku tamanna mai qanittukuluuliriirmat, unurtukallaillu ilagiit nuqqangajuksautaunialirnirmingnik parnaksimaliriirtuksaungmingmata aujamut, akaunaaqsimattiarasugijara ajjigijunniiqtitaugiarsimalituarpat ullursiutitigut akailliutigajarturillugu piviksarijaujunut inutuanut ilagiingujunullu parnautingit isumagillugit.
-----
And Mr. Speaker, given that it is almost May, and given that many families will have already made their summer plans, I believe that it is appropriate that any changes that occur to the calendar take effect with ample time for individuals and families to plan accordingly.
*************** 
misitar uqaqtii, ajurnanngippat kisutuinnalimaanut angirutiliursimajuqtaqanngippat aniguijjutiksamut tamatumunga atuliqujaulluni tiliuqtaujjutigisimajamut.

-----
However, these further consultations in the coming weeks will ensure that as many voices as possible are heard, and that a wide understanding is achieved of the options available and their implications.
***************

So we have to look at ways and means of how we can improve the lives of Inuit inmates and how they can come back to a better environment or possibly having visits from their relatives so they can come home to a friendlier environment. We also have to realise that if the man was sent to a penitentiary without resolving the problem, the spousal problem they might very well come back to the same situation.

-----
In Nunavut for those of us who have been living here for a very long time, it is not our tradition or culture to work at making money. In spite of this we have been abused as Inuit people because we are ignorant of economic issues and business issues.

-----
In the past we have realised that we were abused and we learned from our mistakes from the past. In spite of the actions that have been taken against us, for example by temporary residents from the south, they did have the opportunities in the past and those opportunities were taken away from the Inuit.

Today we are now learning how to do the administration stuff and being a middle aged Inuk person we do not know how to do bookkeeping. I know that when you do not know how to do all the administration stuff I know that in the past Inuit people have been used.

Therefore I would like your department to make a plan to treat everyone, no matter what race they are to be treated equally and so that opportunities will be equal to all people of Nunavut.

In the past it has been hard when you run into problems, like when people started getting their own private businesses and the staff who worked for the private company would start working for another person or another organization so that they could make more money.

A problem that I have seen in the past as well is that the correspondence and documents are only written in English. As a unilingual Inuktitut speaking person when you cannot read English it has been a hindrance for us when we want to start up a business.
*************** 
tamanna avviarutauvakkivuq nunaliujut pivallianinganut.

This will have to be resolved too so that unilingual Inuktitut speaking people can apply to start up their own businesses. One of the problems that I have also seen in the past is the banks.
*************** 
tamakkua nunaliujut ilangit aaqqiksimattiarajalilauqtut pijunnarsititaulauqpata.
-----
The financial institutions. When people start borrowing money from the bank, I know that this has been a problem area for us because when you try to run your own businesses and due to ignorance of administration we were losing money and going bankrupt.
***************

So these are the experiences that we have seen. I think as Inuit people we should be standing up on our own two feet and should have the equal opportunity to start businesses without being abused.

-----
Today in Nunavut in the smaller and the larger communities, I know that it is getting harder and harder to make money in the smaller communities because the other people from the outside get the opportunity rather than the local person. That hinders the development of the community.
***************

-----
Those communities would have been developed far more than they are today if the community had been given a fair opportunity. I am sure that the smaller communities would have had more opportunity, but due to ignorance it did not happen.
*************** 
tamanna nalunairiarumatuinnaqtara, qaujimajunga ilanginni piliriviujunik quviagijaujuksaunngittunga kisiani isumagijakka uqausirijumaqqaugakkit.
-----
But as we are learning more and more about the business world we should be given the opportunity to take part and be involved so that unilingual Inuktitut speaking people have the same opportunity as English speaking people. Even all the documents in the system will have to be clear so that our people will understand it and that way there could be a close working relationship and a better social life.

-----
I think if you look at Nunavut there are so many untapped resources we have that have not been capitalised on. These are the types of things that we need to take a look at exploring and finding ways to promote them and develop new programs and services that will expose those markets and those opportunities that we have.

I believe in anything the success of whatever it is that you are trying to do is to capitalise on the strengths that you have and I look at Nunavut and I see our strengths that we have and the resources that we have.

-----
We have to find ways to help individuals capitalise on their strengths in the traditional economy and things like that, the sealing strategy makes it very clear the effect that the movement against furs had on the traditional economy and the way of life here in Nunavut.

-----
I think we have to look at ways through carving, through crafts, through tourism, fisheries, not only our natural resources but our non-renewable resources that are here. We have to find ways to culture and develop and foster them so that they grow and provide opportunities in all our communities to help them become more self sufficient.

To help Nunavut diversify so that we do become more self-sufficient and create an economy that is not just based on government employment in the communities.

It is very hard for carvers to work outside in the winter and before I became a member of the legislative assembly I was a full time carver and that was my livelihood so I know what the carvers have to go through during the winter seasons.

maliktigiik&utik matujaulirninga arvingni ujarangniarniujuq, kaminkukkut pitaakkannirsimajariaqarlutik nunamik utiqtitsimajariaqarniarmata qanuinnivinituqanganut.
-----
Following the closure of the Polaris mine, Cominco will be required to re-claim the site back to its original condition.
*************** 
ungataanuulirtuq arraaguuk marruuk kaminkukkut aulatisimanikuungmata avatimiutalirinirmut ammalu pitaarutiqariakkannirsimallutik parnautinganut.

Over the past two years Cominco have been conducting an environmental site assessment.

Based on that assessment they are now preparing a closure and reclamation plan.
*************** 
kaminkukkut uqallautiksaliursimaniarmata tamatumunga parnautaujumut pijaksarursimaniar&uni qimirrunaktaujjutiksanganut ammalu uqaullautauviksanganut.
-----
The requirement to reclaim the site is part of Cominco's water licence and land lease of the Polaris mine.
***************

-----
Cominco will soon have a draft of this plan available for review and comments. Their goal is for their final plan to be completed by September 2000 that reflects consultations with affected communities.
***************

Cominco was recognised as a world leader in mine reclamation and I am confident they will do an excellent job of reclaiming the Polaris mine site.

This is an ongoing concern to the elders who are homeowners because they are not able to keep up with the monthly Bills.

If they are over 60 they do not pay for rent at all because they are elders and because they are respected.

However, for the homeowners that are over 60, although they are elders, if they are homeowners they pay for all the Bills, be it land lease, water, or operations & maintenance of the house.

There was a lot of controversy around it but we finally got it through. I would like to thank the minister for approving the design money for the Jonah Amitnaaq school because our light fixtures are falling and it's full of asbestos because it is the oldest school in Nunavut.

While the Standing Committee has only heard from witnesses in Iqaluit and Rankin Inlet, a number of themes have emerged from the discussions to date that are worth noting at this time.

The Elections Act is very detailed and some of the concerns that have been raised would require amendments to the Elections Act at some point in the future.

-----
Timing of elections - There is an emerging consensus that elections in Nunavut should be held in the Fall, after people have generally returned to the communities from the land, but before snow and cold make it more difficult for Elders and persons with disabilities to move about easily in the community.
***************

-----
Mobile Polls - The ability of Returning Officers to go to an individual's home to enable them to vote, particularly if they are ill or disabled, seems to be very important to Elders and persons with disabilities.

This may be preferable to proxy voting in these circumstances.

-----
Proxy voting - Although some difficulties were noted here in the procedure, the ability to vote by proxy, particularly for people who are away from the community at the time of the election, still serves a need in Nunavut, particularly as people often have to leave the community for medical treatment or duty travel or they may plan to be on the land at the time of the election.

-----
Mail-in ballots - It appears that mail-in ballots, particularly for students away from their communities, are a useful idea, but better co-ordination is needed with various government agencies in order to ensure that the students are sent the materials in a timely manner so that they can in fact use the mail-in ballots to vote.

Voters' list - It appears that almost all levels of elections in Nunavut face the difficulty of having an up-to-date voters' list.

Judging from the presentations, door-to-door enumeration is a difficult task and may not be worth the effort, since so many names are still left out.

But the absence of proper lists leads to many difficulties on Election Day, as was pointed out to the Standing Committee.

We need to look at better ways of getting and keeping up-to-date voters lists and transferring names when people move to another community.

-----
The Standing Committee was very interested in hearing from the officials of the Department of Community Government and Transportation as to how they prepare voters' lists for local elections and perhaps we can learn from their experience. The Committee is also interested in learning more about permanent voters' lists generally and some of the practical and technical concerns that would have to be addressed before one could be set up in Nunavut.

-----
It may be worth considering if Nunavut territorial elections should use the same minimum voting age as NTI and this has prompted some interesting discussions that the Standing Committee will be interested to hear more of in their meetings in other communities.

For example, the CEO recommends that the Elections Act be amended to permit candidates to submit their photograph by electronic means.

The CEO's report notes that this may be a violation of their rights under the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms, and therefore may need to be changed.

-----
Should a tie vote result after a judicial recount, a by-election would now be held, so there doesn't appear to be a reason to prevent these people from voting.

Polling stations and time of voting - There appears to have been significant confusion in the larger communities that had more than one polling station and, in particular, in those communities with more than one electoral district.

The current law states that there should be a polling division for every 350 eligible electors.

People appear to support one central voting location in the community, one central listing of all voters in the community, and one central office location for the returning officers, rather than splitting them up, even in multi-electoral district ridings.

People also support formally helping people to get to the voting station on Election Day, although they also like the idea of mobile polls, as noted earlier, for those who have difficulty getting to the polls.

In terms of advance polls, people seem to support being able to vote at the Returning Officer's office prior to Election day, over a number of days, rather than on one specific advance poll day only.

-----
Working together - Although there were many issues and potential hurdles to deal with before such an idea could be turned into reality, it does seem that in principle, there could be much benefit in working together with NTI and other jurisdictions of Government in running elections in Nunavut.

Joint training, developing more consistent election procedures, sharing of officials, and possibly a common computerised voters list are just a few of the ideas worth exploring with all levels of government, as well as with Inuit organizations.

The dissolution of the Divisional Education Council and bringing the functions of the regional education boards into the Department of Education would help ensure that there was more accountability and transparency in government services and would provide more Nunavut wide programs and services.

The Standing Committee was advised that the amendment proposed by the minister was to provide more certainty as to who would be the employer of the many casual employees at the local level after July 1st, 2000, when the DECs will cease to exist.

The Standing Committee was advised that while the DEAs in the Kitikmeot and the Kivalliq have many years of experience in this regard, it was apparently done a bit differently in the Baffin.
***************

-----
While the amendment was revised at the Standing Committee request to focus on the 13 DEA office managers who will actually still be employed on July 1st, 2000, the Standing Committee is nevertheless concerned that the Baffin DEAs will now formally have the responsibility of about 1 thousand employees when these people start being re-hired in August 2000.

-----
All of these people are formally laid off at the end of the school year and they will not be employees on July 1st, 2000 and therefore the legislation does not need to formally deal with them but there may be some issues in the coming school year.

The minister has also committed that the three Community Development Officers who assisted in training and support for the DEAs will continue in the Department as well as the new Co-ordinator and that training will be given to DEAs on their roles and responsibilities as employers.
***************

-----
Members of the Standing Committee expressed some concerns that the proposed chart seems to repeat the existing structure with only a few changes to position titles. Members wondered how this would impact on the estimated cost savings as well as the ability to achieve Nunavut wide educational programs and services.

-----
However, the minister noted that this staff structure will evolve and that this is a transition step to ensure stability for the coming school year.

As well this Bill requests an exemption from the Statutory Instruments Act for any outstanding appeals after July 1st, 2000 that would have ordinarily been dealt with by the DECs.

-----
The Bill also proposes that anything done by the minister in the exercise of a power or the performance of a duty of the Divisional Educational Council be exempt from the Statutory Instruments Act.

-----
The Standing Committee was advised that the Statutory Instruments Act requires that the government publishes certain instruments in the Gazette, including regulations, appointments and certain directives and that this has the result of promoting openness and transparency of government decisions.

-----
The Standing Committee would like to note for the members that the whole Education Act is under review at this time and the committee has been advised that the draft legislation will be brought before the House in the coming year.
***************

At that time it will come before the Standing Committee again.

-----
If the new legislation continues to exempt the minister from the Statutory Instrument Act for education duties and responsibilities that used to belong to the Divisional Educational Councils, the Standing Committee will question this at that time as we don't wish to compromise the spirit of openness and transparency which is so important to all of us.

-----
While the District Education Councils were exempt from the application of the Statutory Instruments Act, minister are usually required to publish appointments, directives and regulations in the Gazette and there doesn't seem to be any reason why the minister should not also do so now that these responsibilities have been brought within the government.
***************

-----
The Standing Committee would request that the principles of openness be honoured as much as possible and the minister would consider how his appointments and any directives he gives regarding the appeals process can in fact be made available for review by the public at some point.

-----
Mr. Chairman, it is evident by what has happened in the House over the past few weeks that in addition to dealing with employees, the DEAs are going to have to play a more assertive role in assessing their community's education needs in making their pleas for education capital and resources and in developing plans and even fundraising for the things they feel are important.

The Statutory Instruments Act is not as clear as it should be about what is a Statutory Instrument.

One of the things that is probably included and covered by the Act normally is anything that is called a direction.

In the current Education Act there are a number of provisions that provide for Education bodies to give direction and depending on how the responsibilities have been delegated, an education body can be a District Education Council.
***************

So as an example, there are provisions that provide for the Superintendent to terminate certain employment contracts and principals and those are at the direction of the education body directing the Superintendent.

Many of the place names in the Tasiujarjuaq map were originally recorded by Arnakallak, an expert hunter of the Iqaluit area, years ago perhaps in the 1940s on the map of the South Baffin.

I know the member had some concerns when we had the debate on Health & Social Services with the tobacco cessation program, I think the member's point is well taken and maybe with that type of information brought forward the member will be an advocate and a supporter of the program.

-----
So I just want to emphasise that next year these prospectors assistance programs should be a bit more proactive. Maybe we should start a little bit more of a campaign to get the younger people in the schools and we know there is no shortage of them, to maybe get them interested in the prospecting field and lead on to a very rewarding career in the mining sector.

Over the past year, some Members of the Committee have expressed concern over the administrative costs associated with the payroll tax that Nunavut inherited from the NWT.

We would be supportive of a review of the current tax regime in Nunavut.

-----
In reviewing the Government's own-source revenues, we find it sobering that the Government will collect approximately 320% more revenue from tobacco taxes than it will from corporate income tax.

Finally, we note the Department's business plan commitment to "produce periodic variance reports on GN expenditures and revenues for review and public information."

We applaud this commitment to transparency, and encourage the Department to make public a wide range of information, including comprehensive lists of government contracts and community-by-community breakdowns of government expenditures.

The Power Corporation estimates that the new plant put in and based on the community's rates now we have in place.
***************

-----
The rate the power rate in Clyde River would increase between 35 and 40 percent.

-----
After saying that Mr. Speaker, as I have said many times now in this House to the people of Clyde River and to the Member that we as a the Nunavut Government and Nunavut Power Corporation realise a 40 percent increase in the rates in Clyde River are not acceptable.

Before any rate increases in Clyde River there is an opportunity through the Nunavut Utilities Board where the community of Clyde River would be an intervenor.

They would have intervenor status. We would pay for them.

There maybe some additional costs to the Government of Nunavut in assisting in getting the community up and running during the temporary period until the power corporation fully re-establishes permanent power in the community of Sanikiluaq.

One of the things that we have found out so far is that you have to have the parents participate themselves with their own creative element, upgrading programs, at least to appreciate the need for a good education.

taima takujunnarpunga naukkut aqaillirutaunnirmangaaq taimaittunik aulaniqarasuarluni.

So I could see where that could cause some problems there with that type of a system.

However, here in Nunavut, every single community that we have isn't accessible by road and requires sealift.
***************

I am just wondering if in that light I think it is a little bit different circumstances than those faced by the GNWT.

Mr. Speaker, yes we would be willing to take a look at it but, as members know, right now we are trying to put together a draft five year planning document for members and Nunavummiut across the territories so we can have a better indication of what we want to try and do from a capital perspective.

I guess my concern and it is through history, which showed that these five-year capital plans were always developed but not always followed.

Mr. Chairman, I am just wondering if there are any criteria used or analysis done looking at these projects. I know that we have very limited resources that we have to work with and more and more of these types of projects that we take on also uses up our future dollars and furthers limits the resources that we have available to us in the future.

But also I guess from the perspective of there seems to be a move from the public accounting leaders in respect to trying to change the way public accounting, government accounting for assets, for long-term assets.
***************

In the past governments have been required to charge all the expenditures in the year in which they outlay the expenditure, the cash.

-----
But the move is to allow, to change the guidelines to allow governments to amortise their capital investments over the life expectancy of those assets, similar to what private enterprise has available to them right now from that depreciation aspect.

I guess hearing that it would make it all the more critical that we do have some type of criteria or standard to roughly choose to go ahead on that matter. If we are going to be allowed to a lot more easily get into these types of arrangements, we could look at one project for example, that could have an impact on the government probably long after we are gone.

We are spending dollars with some of these arrangements that go over the life span of the building, which is over 25 or 30 years. Then we are spending money that 25 or 30 years from now that the government of the day and our children won't have to deal with.

-----
In my community there was a casual job advertised. There were a couple of applicants and there was a southern applicant that had quite a few years of experience applied for the position and another lady that graduated from high school but worked in the school over the year as a tutor-counsellor, coached the kids at the school and things like that.

-----
One of the Hamlet Councillors was involved in the application and interview process and he thought there was a bias towards hiring the person from the south with the experience that hasn't lived in the community.

As for the local girl that graduated from the school there and worked in the school for years applying on a temporary position the interviewer was saying well, you don't have enough experience to do this job. It's a casual job.

So he finally went out and the young woman was hired and she is very happy and it will probably work out good for her to start a career in the Nunavut Government.

But getting back, it seems that old policy seems to have been inherited from the GNWT where sometimes we look at, not in all cases, but we look at the person with the best experience no matter where they are from or who they are, over local applicants.

Would the minister consider giving the Minister of Human Resources, or the cabinet, or whoever does the direct appointments, consider just giving the minister the power and authorization to do a direct appointment rather than having to sit around with five or six cabinet ministers at once to okay or rubberstamp it.

Just on Mr. McLean's earlier comment on job competitions and qualifications and that.

Sure people down south see Nunavut and they see the flag and they see how it is up here and as we all know there is a commercial on TV right now that I am Canadian. Still the south has a stereotypical view of us up here that we live in igloos and we eat blubber and we have dog teams.

The operations and maintenance budget across Executive & Intergovernmental Affairs was reduced by 4%.The Nunavut Cabinet's budget which includes the Premier and seven Ministers has decreased by approximately 9%.The Communications, Policy and Planning branch, responsible for the management and co-ordination of Cabinet operations saw its budget decrease as funding for the Leadership Forum was transferred to Community Government & Transportation and as the branch reassigned one of its positions to the Decentralization Secretariat in support of this Government's decentralization initiatives.

-----
Members, I have reviewed the rules of this Legislature, precedents from the Legislative Assembly of the Northwest Territories, Beauchesne's parliamentary rules and forms standing order 18 of the house of commons and the most recent edition of the Federal House of Commons procedure and practice. Before giving my ruling I would like to make some introductory comments and I would like to ask the members to try and be serious while these comments are being read.
*************** 
maligaliuqtiujut qaujimajuksaungmata, iniqtirijjutikkut sukuurutaujut nalunaiqtausimavut nasautilingmi 2 9(0-ngani maligaliuqtit maligaralaaqutinginni uqarsimavuq imanna "qimaruutiliqpata titirarsimajunit uvvaluunniit titirarsimangittuugaluanik maligaralaanginnik uvvaluunniit piqqusinginnik maligaliuqtiujut uvvaluunniit maligaliurvikjuap piqqusinginnit"
-----
As the members are well aware, a point of order as defined in section 2(g) of the rules of this Legislative Assembly "means any departure from any written or unwritten rule or custom of this assembly or of parliamentary tradition".
*************** 
(Beauchesne's) kanatami maligaliuqtit maligaralaanga 317 uqarsimavuq uvattinnik tusaqtittilluni imanna "tamakkua iniqtirijjutitigut sukuurutiujut apiqqutiullutik saqqitauqattaqput ujjirusuktittijjutaullutik maligaliuqtiujuq qimaruutiliraangat maligarijaujunit uvvaluunniit maligaralaanginnik katimatillugit aulaniujumut maligaliurvingmi katimarjuaqtillugit piliriaqaqtillugit.
-----
Beauchesne's at citation 317 informs us that "points of order are questions raised with a view of calling attention to any departure from the standing orders or the customary modes of proceeding in debate or in the conduct of legislative business".
*************** 
iqaluit qitianut maligaliuqtiujuup iniqtirijjutinga sukuurutia apiqsurutiqarmat uqausiqtait atuqtaulauqtut iqaluktuuttiap maligaliuqtingannut saqqisimangmata maligaliuqtikkut katimallutik aivautiqaqtillugit.
-----
The member for Iqaluit Centre's point of order in effect questions whether or not the words used by the member for Cambridge Bay deviates from the accepted mode of debate in this Assembly.
*************** 
ukua nalunaiqtaujariaqaqtut taimannaittut iniqtirijjutaujut sukuurutaullutik, aksummariujuq pimmariungmata isumaliurutauniaqtut pillugit pinianiulauqtunut.
-----
What must be pointed out with this point of order, is that the context is very important in deciding what has taken place.
*************** 
suli ukakkannirumavunga (Beauchesne's) kanatami maligaliurvit maligangit nasautilik 486(1) uqarsimangmat "ajurnarmat maligallattaanik atullattaariaksaq inuuqatiminik aannirsijuqarniaqtillugu uqausikkut akiraqturluni maligaliuqtiuqatiminik, uvvaluunniit sivurngagut nalunairsijariaksaq ajurnarmat uqausiuniaqtut maliksimaliraluarmangaata uvvaluunniit siqumitsiniarmangaata maligaujunik;
-----
Once again to quote from Beauchesne's at citation 486(1) "it is impossible to lay down any specific rules in regard to injurious reflections uttered in debate against particular members, or to declare beforehand what expressions are or are not contrary to order;
*************** 
kisianili maliksimatuinnarajaqtut uqallaktuup piusirijanganik ammalu pijjutianikaa."
-----
much depends upon the tone and manner and intention of the person speaking..."

*************** 
ammalu taikanitsainnaq maligaujuni nasautilik 486(2) uqarsimavuq "uqausiq atuqtaujut maliksimanginnasungijaukpat maligaliurvingmi uqausiqtauvaktuni ullumiujuq taimanna isumagijaujunnaqtuugaluaq kisianili suurlu pinasuarusiginiaqtattinni taimanna isumaginirijaujuq asijjirsimajunnarmat."
-----
It is dependent on more general principles than a list of forbidden words. However, since context is important in deciding the issue, it also means that timeliness in bringing a point of order is important and as a general rule, they should be raised promptly when they occur.
*************** 
tamakkua uqautaujut ullumi uqausirivakka nalunairsijumallunga isummirutigijara maligaliuqtiujuq iniqtirijjutiksaqarmangaat iniqtirijjutiksaqangimmangaallu taimannatuinnaq aulaniqangimmat uqausiqtait qaujisaqtautuinnarlutik atuqtaulauqtut uvvaluunniit uqausiqtarnik aturiaqalaunngitanginnik aturnirmangaata, imanna tukiqangimmijuq uqaqtiup isummirutigijanga ullurmi tavvanitsainnaq atuqtaunginnaujalirniarninganik surralaursimajunniirluni. immikkuulingallutik pijjutingit atuqtaullutik isummirutiliuqattarmata uqausiqtait atuqtaujariaqangittut isumagiluarnagit.
-----
I believe that it is also useful to indicate that once a point of order has been raised, the matter is within the hands of the Speaker for resolution.
***************

-----
Therefore, it would be improper for members unless asked by the speaker to debate the matter, or to make references to the point of order while addressing the Assembly in any other fashion.
*************** 
ukpirusuktunga atuutiqarniarmingmat uqaruma saqqittijuqaraangat iniqtirutimik sukuurutikkut, uqaqtimut tunijautsautigiqattarmat uqaqtiup isummirutiginiarmagu.
-----
The matter should not be referred to until the Speaker has made his ruling and once the ruling has been made the matter is considered closed.
***************

-----
As a final matter before turning to the point of order before me, I think it worthwhile to reflect on the reasons for having a parliamentary tradition of debate that attempts to keep matters from becoming too personal.
*************** 
kingulliqpaami uqausirigialaunginninni iniqtirijjutaujuq saannuaqtausimajuq, atuutiqaqquurajarmat uqausiqaruma pijjutinginnik maligaliurvikjuarmi iliqqusirijauvaktunik aivautigijangit immimut turaangaliqtitailimajariaqarattigu.
-----
Reasonable people may differ and at the heart of the parliamentary system is vigorous debate between persons of different opinions on issues.
*************** 
ilangit taimanginnasugiksiqtuksaugaluaqput pijjutigillugu maligaliurvikjuarmi maligaliuqtiujut aivautiruluujaqpangmata isumagijangit ajjigiigunniirangata, ikpingnianiujut ajjigiigunniirangata aivautiniqsauliqpangmata, iliqqusirijaujullu sanajausimallutik tamakkua aivautaujut immimut turaangattailimaqullugit uqausiujumut kisiani uqallagunnaqtitaullutik.
-----
Since emotions can naturally become heated in such a context, traditions have been established that attempt to confine the debate to the issues and keep it from falling into personal invective.
*************** 
taimali aivautaujut tamakkununga isumaalugutaujunut turaangajariaqarmata maligaliuqtiuqataujunuungittuq, taakkua isumaalugutaujunik saqqittijiungmata tavvunga maligaliurvimut.
-----
The debate should be about the issues and not the Honourable Members who bring the issues to this Assembly.
*************** 
taimanninganut maligaujut saqqitausimavut tukimuagutaujunnarniarmata tamakkununga atuqtaujunnaqtunut ammalu atuqtaujariaqangittunut katimatillugit aivautaujut isumaalugutaujumut turaangainnariaqarmata, amma turaangajariaqaratik immimuungajumut.
-----
Hence rules are therefore set as guidelines for what is acceptable and what is not acceptable in that they keep the debate centred on the issues and not the personalities of the members.
*************** 
taimali tamakkua pijjutiliarijausimajut malik&ugit maligaliurvingmi iliqqusirijauvaktut kanatami saqqisimallutik tiliqsijjutinginni 18-mi nasautilingmi kanataup maligaliurvikjuangani imanna uqarsimavut (amma uqausingit imannailingajut uqausiriqasiutillugit "maligaliurvikjuap kanatami maligangit iliqqusirijangannut ammalu piusingit, sanajavinirni 2000-mi makpiqtugangani 522-mi) uqarsimavuq imanna "uqausiqtaujut maligaliuqtiuqatajumut turaaqtitaujut apiqsurutaullutik sulinirijanganut ammalu tatigijaujunnarnirijanganut uvvaluunniit immimut turaangamut maligaralaanik siqumittiniungmata."
-----
In keeping with those principles it has become part of the parliamentary tradition in Canada arising out of standing order 18 of the Federal House of Commons that, and here I quote from the House of Commons Procedure and Practice, edition 2000 at page 522, "remarks directed specifically at another member which questions that member's integrity, honesty or character are not in order."
*************** 
ammalu (Beauchesne's) kanatami maligaliuqtikkut maligaralaanga 23 (1) uqarsimavut maligaliuqti sagluluni uvvaluunniit ijirsimajukkut maligaliuqtiuqatimingnut piniarniqariaqanngilaq.
-----
As well, Beauchesne's and our rule 23(i) make it unparliamentary to impute false or hidden motives to another member.
*************** 
taimali pilirillugu iniqtirijjutikkut sukuurutaulauqtuq iqaluit qitianut maligaliuqtingannut, isumaliuriaqarnialiratta, uqausiqtait atuqtaulauqtut maligaliuqtingatta iqaluktuuttiarmut pillugit, ammalu uqausirilauqtangit imannailingangmata, "uqaqtii, uqautivara maligaliuqtiuqataujuq kanngunaq akillariginngitanganik taisingmat kigliniq ilinniarvialuup pilirijaujjutiginiaqtanganut niruaqtausimanirminut quvvariarutiginasuar&ugu."
-----
In dealing with the point of order of the member for Iqaluit Centre, the question that therefore must be decided is, were the following words spoken by the Member for Cambridge Bay, and I quote "Mr. Speaker, I say shame on the member for misrepresenting the cost of the Killiniq high school project for his own political means."
***************

-----
The fact that they questioned the honesty and integrity of the Member for Iqaluit Centre and as well did they impute a false motive to that member.
*************** 
isummirutigijanni, maliklugu katimatillugit aivautaulauqtut angiqtainnarilugit tamakkiik apiqqutaulauqtuuk.
-----
It is my ruling, that from the context of the debate that the answer is in the affirmative to both of these questions.
*************** 
iqaluit qitianut maligaliuqtiujuq apiqsulauqtuq kiinaujaqturutiksanut aturumaatanginnik iqaluktuuttiap ilinniarviata ammalu qanuq taakkua naasautit aaqqigsuqtaunnirmangaata.
-----
The Member for Iqaluit Centre was questioning the budget of the Cambridge Bay School and how certain figures were calculated.
*************** 
taimainninganut tamakkua maliksimattiaqtut maligaliuqtituinnaulluni piliriaksarijanginnut.
-----
I take this to be consistent with his duties as a regular member.
*************** 
iqaluktuuttiarmut maligaliuqtiujuq nalunairsittialaurmat uqar&uni maligaliuqtiujuq iqaluit qitianut nasautinik taisinirijanga kiggaqtuittianginniraq&unigit.
-----
The Member for Cambridge Bay clearly states that the Member for Iqaluit Centre is misrepresenting the figures.
*************** 
taimali kiggaqtuittianginniujut pijaaqqutaujunnaqput uvvaluunniit pijaaringittuujunnar&uni.
-----
Now misrepresentation can be deliberate or unintentional.
*************** 
kisianili pijaringijjutituarijunnaqtanga kisiani pijjutia.
-----
But what it cannot be is unintentional but for a purpose.
*************** 
maligaliuqtiujuq iqaluktuuttiarmut pijjutinginnik taisilaurmat kiggaqtuittianginniraliq&uniuk imanna, "immimut qavvariarutiginasuaqtangit niruaqtausimanirminut."
-----
The Member for Cambridge Bay gives a purpose for the misrepresentation, namely "for his own political means."
*************** 
taimaimmat nalunarunniittiaqpuq uqausirilauqtangit maliklugit maligaliuqtiuqataujuup iqaluktuuttiarmut tusaqtittinasulaurmat iqaluit qitianut maligaliuqtiujumut pijaariniraq&uniuk kiinaujait unurninginnik taisittianginniralaurmagu.
-----
Therefore it is clear from the context of the whole sentence spoken that the idea the Member for Cambridge Bay is communicating is that the Member for Iqaluit Centre is deliberately misrepresenting the figures.
*************** 
isumagijakkulli taimailiuqtillugu apiqsurutiqarmat ukpirnarninganik ammalu tatigijaujunnarninganik iqaluit qitianut maligaliuqtimut.
-----
In my opinion this questions the honesty and integrity of the Member for Iqaluit Centre and is therefore unparliamentary.
*************** 
ammalu uqausiqtait atulauqtangit sulingittukkut piniarniqainiraivut iqaluit qitianut maligaliuqtimut.
-----
As well, the words spoken contain an imputation of false motive to the Member for Iqaluit Centre.
*************** 
tamakkua pijjutigillugit apirijumavara iqaluktuuttiarmut maligaliuqtiujuq uqausirilauqtaminik utiqtittiqullugu iqaluit qitianut maligaliuqtingannut.
-----
For these reasons I would therefore ask the member for Cambridge Bay to retract his remarks made to the Member for Iqaluit Centre.
*************** 
kisianili ikpigusungmijunga uqausiqtait atulauqtangit maligaliuqtiup maliganginnik siqumittiluarsimangimmata mamiagiatungittuq.
-----
However, I do not feel that the words spoken were so unparliamentary as to require or demand an apology.
*************** 
maannaujurli apirigumavara maligaliuqtiujuq iqaluttuutsiarmut uqarumammangaaq.
-----
At this point I would ask the Member for Cambridge Bay if he wishes to comment.
***************

-----
I think before we go to the next point of order, I think it is important members, and I can speak fairly freely on this because I remember in the last assembly I was asked to make an apology and retract remarks, and at times it is difficult to do so but we are looking at the business of the House and why we are here.

-----
I note that the Member for Cambridge Bay took the opportunity to clarify the means by which he had determined the budget figures for the Killiniq high school project, clearly indicating that he had referenced documents which had been tabled in this house.
***************

In conclusion, I find that there is no point of order.

Mr. Speaker, on Wednesday the 19th I was talking about the cost of the school in Cambridge Bay.
***************

Mr. Speaker the member told this House that the total temporary facility construction cost is 2 million, 22 thousand and 766 dollars.

-----
He then listed other figures including contingency and Fire Marshall requirements which he then proposed to deduct from his proposed budget of 14 million, 9 hundred thousand, in effect to get the true cost.
*************** 
taakkua piiqtaugamik 4 milian maligaliurvingmut nalunaiqsililaurmingmat ilinniarviksaup akiginiaqtanga 10 miliannguniraqtugu, 191 tausan, 566 taalas.
-----
After deducting over 4 million dollars he then indicated to the House that the cost of the new school will be 10 million, 191 thousand, 566 dollars.
*************** 
taanna agguturlugu uvuuna 3400 sikkittait miitait akiqasituinnartuq atillaarjuanut 3 tausan taalait atausiq sikkittaq miita.
-----
This divided by the 34 hundred square meters works out to under just 3 thousand dollars a square meter.
***************

The member quoted the documents that were tabled before this House.

-----
The documents that were tabled clearly state that when the renovations and I will quote them "renovations to temporary facilities are included in the total cost of replacing the high school.
*************** 
kiinaujait aturtutsamaat imaittuullarittut 16 milian, 915 tausan amma 763 taalait".
-----
The total budget cost is actually 16 million, 915 thousand and 763 dollars".
*************** 
taima minista ilanngaigumanniruni taakkununga akinut summakkiaq aturningillangit atangirtillugit kiinaujait aturtutsamaat pigiarutigilugit.
-----
So if the minister proposes to deduct these costs I wonder why he did not use the total budget as a starting point.
***************

Furthermore Mr. Speaker, the budget really in the books is 14.2 million dollars, not 10 million dollars as the minister suggests.
*************** 
taima takujunnanngilanga qanuq akinga sikkittaup miitaup naasartaugunnarmangaaq naasaummik titirarsimanngittumik kiinaujait mitsausittaugutinginni.

So I fail to see how the cost per square meter can be calculated from a number that is not listed in the Main Estimates.

In reference to my preamble, not necessarily to the fact that the words that were used would be considered unparliamentary, but to my general preamble. Our main purpose in being in this House is to conduct the business of this House on behalf of the people that elected us.
***************

I think there comes a point in time where we have to look at the role of the member and the role of the business in the House trying to ensure that the work of the House is carried out in an effective and efficient manner. I fail to see at this point in time that we are accomplishing this by any banter that takes place between two members.
***************

-----
There was a ruling this morning on the points of order. Do I make myself clear as to the fact that we have to separate the personalities from the issues, and when we fail to do that the issues that we are dealing with are not political issues they are personal issues.

-----
I originally thought that on Mr. Tootoo's statement, for him to continue with it is somewhat harmless.
*************** 
5:
-----
However, given the fact that I spent quite a bit of time on the preamble in reference to personalities and issues, given the fact that we are very close to finishing off our work here in reference to the budget, I feel that Mr. Ng does have a point of order and I would rule Mr. Tootoo's statement or continuation of it, out of order. So with that let us try and get to the business at hand and complete the budget and complete the work that is before us on behalf of the people that elected us.

Mr. Speaker, first of all I would like to take this opportunity to thank all the staff of the Power Corporation here in Iqaluit and throughout Nunavut who have been working overtime and extra time to make sure the people of Sanikiluaq have their power on and their generators in place.

There is at this present time, I can't give an actual dollar amount of out of pocket expenses that the Government of Nunavut may have to incur, but I can say the replacements of the generators do work and the rest of the logistics and administrative costs are covered under the insurance for the generators.

Mr. Speaker, if it happened in any community in Nunavut with the loss of power in such a community of 600, a population of 600, Mr. Speaker, if the insurance coverage is exceeded, does the minister have contingency funds in order to accommodate the costs for transporting the generators.

Does that mean that is going to be an increase in our power rates just in case the insurance doesn't cover all the costs. If we go over the insurance limit does that mean we are going to increase the rates in order to pay for the building.

I am not really sure whether it is a question to be directed to him or not but let me know if I make a mistake.

Some Inuit in the Nunavut area get sick and they do not diagnose them right away.
***************

Some of them go to see a doctor but are told there is nothing wrong with them.

Sometimes they get cancer and then they finally find out when it is too late.

I think there should be a way whereby those people could be diagnosed properly.

Mr. Speaker, this is a very difficult area to discuss in this forum. But I will try.

-----
Mr. Speaker, as you know, as the members of this House know, with different diseases and medical problems that arise with individuals we try to give the best type of care as possible and we know that the professionals working in our communities do that.
*************** 
taimannailigaluaqtunga uqaqtii ilaannikkut pijuqaqpapput qanimagijaujut ijiqsimavammata ilaannikkullu qaujijaugatit isumaliurutaujutigut qaujisaqtaujumik.
-----
After saying that Mr. Speaker sometimes there are cases where different diseases are hidden and sometimes they are missed based on the considerations being brought forward by the patient.
*************** 
ilaannikkut qaujijjutaujut ajjigiinngittuuqquujisuungummata aannianit.
-----
Sometimes different symptoms disguise themselves as different diseases.
*************** 
uqaqtii uuttuutigillu inuk qanimaniqarunnaqpuq akunikallak qaujijaksanngulauqtinnagu.
-----
Mr. Speaker for example a disease can be in a person for quite a while before it becomes evident.

-----
So that is why we are proactive as a government and medical professionals in the field that provide pap smears for example Mr. Speaker, to be able to give an early warning.
***************

*************** 
qujannamiik uqaqtii.
-----
Yes I like the response from the minister and from whatever else that he wants to get that he was going to look into this business of diagnosing patients. I just wondered whether he uses tele-health in the communities.
*************** 
ii tamanna kiujanga naammagivaqujannamiik uqaqtii ministamik ammalu kisutuinnarmik pilirijumajanganik qaujigiarniarninganik qaujisarasunnirmik aanniaviliaqtunit.
-----
I just wondered whether those tele-health computers will create any problems. Will you be reviewing to make sure tele-health computers are working properly and not making a misdiagnoses of patients, and to make sure the nurses in the communities know how to use those tele-health computers.
*************** 
tusarumatuinnaqtunga ungasiktumik aanniaqtuliriniq nunalinnu, tamakkua qarisaujait iluanngiliurutiliurajarmangaata.

I just wondered whether those tele-health computers are okay to operate and to make sure they do not make a mistake in misdiagnosing patients. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.

Mr. Speaker the member is correct.
***************

-----
One of the assets of the tele-health network is the ability to access over long distances diagnostic help on diseases.

-----
For example Mr. Speaker, in Pond we talked about before how there was a skin rash evident in some patients in Pond Inlet and by using tele-health we were able to make a diagnosis from the doctor in Iqaluit and they did not have to travel.
*************** 
uqaqtii ungasiktukkut aanniaqtulirisimammijugut ilanginnit qarisaujakkut aanniangujunit qaujisimajatsinnit ammalu ikajuqtuta pilirianguninginnit qarisakkut aanniangujunit.
-----
Mr. Speaker we have also been using tele-health for diagnoses with some of the mental illnesses that we have been encountering and also helping with therapy with the mental health side of things.

-----
Mr. Speaker, as you know and this House knows we just recently signed a MOU with the Newfoundland government for tele-health and also with the Australian territorial government there with tele-health. So we will be able to look at some aspects of the innovations they are using and bring it forward.
***************

-----
Mr. Speaker, as you know a million dollars was approved in this House when the health budget was before us, for training and also implementing tele-health throughout Nunavut.
***************

So hopefully with the equipment in place we will be able to make a diagnosis quicker and those diagnoses will be more reliable like we have been doing in Pond and like we hope to do in some of our other communities.

-----
But, again Mr. Speaker, tele-health is just one more tool that we are trying to bring forward and as health ministers in Canada have been trying to say and I have another meeting sometime this week Mr. Speaker, we are trying to reform the health care system.
*************** 
maanili nunavuumi uqaqtii imannailigunnaqquuqtugut sivuliuriqataugatta.

Here in Nunavut Mr. Speaker, I think it is safe to say that we are on the leading edge.

We have integrated our health boards.

We have brought forward tele-health and Mr. Speaker we are training Inuit to be nurses.

I want to thank him again because he gives me another opportunity to talk about another initiative that I announced last week. That is 4 million dollars a year going to the Nunavut Government from the Federal Government to train people in our communities to be able to provide home care support for people with illnesses and diseases, but also to help be an advocate for health care and home care.

To make sure appointments are on time, to make sure that the communities are informed about the health care operations through the community health promotion programs, because Mr. Speaker we don't want to be just treating diseases and problems we want to be able to prevent them.
***************

The Nunavut Government prefers to be upstream in health care and be proactive. So that was a good clarification and I hope that answers Mr. Speaker, gives the member some level of comfort on his original question.

Let me make it perfectly clear Mr. Speaker, that on any opportunity the health care representatives have in our community, they are trying to work on the preventative side of medicine.

We are trying to prevent these types of diseases and that is why we are bringing in the program in September on anti-smoking so that we can start eliminating some of these highly preventable diseases.

On the diagnoses themselves Mr. Speaker, they are medical professionals, I am not a doctor or a nurse and when I had to go to a health centre my wife had exploratory surgery last week.

-----
In this forum I can say that the diagnoses made by the doctors and nurses, if there is concern about a missed diagnoses or an improper diagnosis then that should be brought forward and that could be a legal matter if there has been a misdiagnosis or something like that.

However, after saying that Mr. Speaker, the general point I think the member's question is a good one on how these diagnoses are made.

Mr. Speaker, as I tried to explain earlier what we are trying to do at the Department of Health and Social Services and what medical professionals try to do is not something that this government makes up, there are guidelines for the detection and early warning signs of diseases.

Mr. Speaker, as the member knows when we bring up people's names in this House, in a public forum, I don't go out and talk about a neighbour, a relative, my aunt.

When a person goes into a health centre and they have a pain in their side, the medical professionals try to find out what is causing that problem, and then they do a diagnoses.

If something is going unchecked and they have a problem and they don't go to the health centre, then it is very difficult for the health professionals to know there is a problem.

So those types of diagnoses are made based on the professional knowledge and based on criteria and so on, Mr. Speaker, that is already in place from the medical professional's point of view.

Mr. Speaker, the CHRs are our community health representative at the community level and their idea is to bring forward preventative sides of medicine, work with the Department of Health & Social Services and with the Health Centre and the nurses at the local level on the preventative side of medicine.

That's what we would be doing Mr. Speaker, the proposal would be to bring forward the anti-smoking campaign, which we have already stated will be targeted toward the youth of Nunavut. The CHRs will be a fundamental part of that because they would have the packages that would be available to the schools.

I would like to know, I probably have an idea who has the final say on the diagnoses for patients, but Mr. Speaker, in the past I have noticed that in order to accommodate the needs of our communities and the shortage of staff with the nursing profession, I have noticed that the minister has brought nurses from the south to accommodate our needs.

-----
For example in the member's community, if a person went to the health centre in Arctic Bay, a preliminary diagnoses would be made by a nurse in conjunction, if the nurse felt that there was a need, the nurse could make a call to Iqaluit and then have a consultation with a doctor in Iqaluit.

Again, it depends on what the specific problem is. For example, if it was a broken arm then they could do an X-ray and then the nurse would of course diagnose that at the community level, they have the X-ray and they know what has to be done.

If a person came in with a problem that the nurse could not diagnose or was unsure of what the concern was, then they would be in contact with the medical professionals in this case in Iqaluit. Then that person may be sent out to be seen by that medical professional.

If the person needed legal aid or legal help at that time there are remedies available for that person as there is for any person here in Nunavut who cannot afford legal help or legal counsel. If it is a civil suit, Mr. Speaker, as for example, in malpractice, if that was the case, after discoveries were made, Mr. Speaker, then there would be an opportunity then for that type of case to be brought forward.

Could the Premier commit to me that the private sector is important in Nunavut. That the responsibilities that the government has given them in the past to provide services that weren't provided by the government before, because we know there is not a lot of capacity in this government at this time, will continue and be a priority in the Nunavut Government.

Would the Premier through his cabinet colleagues maybe mention that to the Deputy Ministers and the Assistant Deputy Ministers that the government's priority is to help stimulate the private sector and continue to work with them.

I guess Mr. Speaker, because people are more active in the spring time there is more intermingling, sometimes people stay in tents, so that may be one of the causes.

I don't know Mr. Speaker, why there is more prevalence of certain types of diseases in the spring time, as opposed to other times in the year, but I would surmise, Mr. Speaker, it is based probably on more activity outside and so on.

In the audit which is a value for money audit, what were previously person years have been put into contract dollars so we can do a series of contracts in terms of value for money in terms of the Nunavut Government and program responsibilities.

So a series of programs that will be evaluated in any given year and the skills to evaluate that program are going to be very different and it is unlikely that we would be able to hire a big enough group of specialists that would have all those skills.

Again, for those of us that represent two communities, the cabinet members are not listening Mr. Chairman, because they are just having discussion on their own about other issues I believe.

For those of us who have two communities, I will use an example, I do not know what the population is for Mr. Akesuk's riding, he has two communities, Mr. Iqaqrialu has two communities, and Mr. Barnabas I believe is representing three or four communities.

But I wouldn't think that it would be too much, I think it would be transporting the various individuals to the communities through air costs and hotel costs and so on.

These concerns, along with the Pinasuaqtavut, have shaped the allocation of three particular items in our budget. The 500 thousand for youth capital projects, 300 thousand (O&M) for the Youth/ Elders Conferences and 130 thousand (O&M) for the creation of an Inuit Qaujimajatuqangit Task Force each resulted from the pre-budget consultation.

piluaqtumik, katimajiralaanguinnaqtut atuliqujivut sanaqullugit atuaganik gavamakkut aturniaqtanginnik uqausilirinirmut, inuit qaujimajatuqanginnullu, ilautitauqullugit innatuqait ammalu makkuktut.
-----
In particular, the Standing Committee recommended the development of a number of policies for the government in terms of language, Inuit Qaujimajatuqangit, involvement of Elders and youth, as well as other suggestions.
*************** 
katimajiralaanguinnaqtut qaujimajut piliriviujuq kajusitittigiarsimalirmata ilanginnik isumalugutausimajunik, kisianili kangaarnaqpuq atuagaujut sanajaulaursimangimmata uvvaluunniit pilirijjutiksaujut maligaliurvingmi saqqitaulaungimmata uvvaluunniit katimajiralaanut tunijaulaursimangimmata.
-----
While the Standing Committee knows that the Department has taken steps on a number of these, it has been disappointing that no draft policies or programs in these areas have been tabled or referred to the Committee.
*************** 
katimajiralaanguinnaqtut qimirrulaursimangittut maligaksaujunik uvvaluunniit maligaksaliarijaujumajunik pilirivingmut.
-----
The Standing Committee has not reviewed any draft Bills or legislative proposals under the mandate of this Department.
*************** 
kisianili, tiliniursimaliqtavut pilirivingit ilinniarnilirinirmut ammalu aanniaqtulirinirmut inulirinirmullu tusaqtittigasuaqullugit iliqqusilirinirmut, uqausilirinirmut, innatuqalirinirmut makkuktulirinirmullu pilirivingannik ilanginnik pigiaqtisimajangita miksaanut.
-----
However, we have encouraged the Departments of Education and Health and Social Services to consult with Culture, Language, Elders & Youth in some of their initiatives.
*************** 
uktuutigilugu, qimirrujaunirilauqtangit ilinniarnilirinirmut piqujarjuangannik unuqtummariujunik tusaruminaqtuqarmata inuit uqausingita ammalu iliqqusingannu miksaanungajunik, ammalu sanajauningata inuktitut ilinniarutiksauniaqtut, akaunaarajarmijuq pilirivingat iliqqusilirinirmut, uqausilirinirmut, innatuqalirinirmut makkuktulirinirmullu pimmariujumik ilauniqarluni piliriqatauttiariaqaqtuugaluaq tamatumunga.
-----
For example, the review of the Education Act has many areas of profound interest to Inuit language and culture, as well as the development of Inuktitut curriculum materials, and it would be appropriate that the Department of Culture, Language, Elders & Youth should have an important role to play in this regard.
***************

-----
In terms of the Main Estimates, once again, we have requested and support the government's plans for a much more comprehensive budget process, so that Members will have materials well in advance to properly review them.
***************

-----
While the Standing Committee had the opportunity to review draft business plans and capital plans in February and March of this year, during fairly extensive discussions with the former Minister and his officials, we are disappointed that there were no changes to the budget documents tabled in the House, to reflect the concerns raised by Members during those meetings.
***************

-----
We also only received a copy of the Final Business Plan on the day we began discussing the Main Estimates for this department in the House.
*************** 
isumaalugutigijavut akitujunut aturumaaqtut ittarnisaqarviujunut.
-----
Of particular concern was the capital funding for heritage centres.

-----
The Standing Committee was advised that the amount of $500,000 in the budget would be available to communities across Nunavut, but we later learned in the House that the funding was apparently allocated to one community only.
*************** 
kiinaujaqturutiksanut titirarsimajut matuinganningimmata ammalu saqqijaaqtiaqtitaunniratik, taimaittariaqarningikkaluaqtillugu.
-----
The budget documents were not as open and transparent, as they should have been.

-----
Members expressed concern about the fact that that no capital planning dollars have been allocated to identifying our needs for an archive facility, as well as a Nunavut heritage facility - important facilities to the work of this department.
***************

-----
Members also requested funding support to Elders Councils and to Elders centres and to heritage work with Elders, but there does not appear to be much funding allocated for this important work.
*************** 
katimajiuqataujut isumaalugutiqaqput makkuktulirijjutitaqattianginninganik.
-----
Members are concerned at the lack of focus on youth.
***************

-----
Although there is $500,000 put aside for youth centres, there is no information about the funding program and clearly if capital projects are to be done this fiscal year, the sealift deadlines may well be past by the time the decisions have been made.
***************

-----
This Department is pivotal to the work of the Government and Members continue to have concerns about whether there are enough staff and resources for it to do a proper job in protecting and advancing Inuit language and culture.
*************** 
inuit uqausinginnik ammalu iliqqusingannik. iluaniittiariaqaqtut gavamakkut piliriarijangita, iqqanaijaqatiqarlutik asinginnik piliriviujunik, nunataarsimanirmullu timiujunik, innatuqarnik, ammalu makkuktunik, nunaliujut ilautitaulutik ammalu tamakkua iqqanaijaqatigijaulutik katujjaulutik uqausiliriniq ammalu iliqqusilirinirmut piliriaksat - kisiani suli sanirvaktausimaguujingmata amma taimailingatillugu katimajiuqataujunut naamagijauluarani.
-----
They must be at the heart of many government initiatives, working in partnership with other departments, with land claim organizations, with Elders and youth, with communities and others who need to work together on language and cultural matters - but they seem to still be on the sidelines and this doesn't seem right to the Members.

Also Mr. Speaker, all the people of Nunavut I would like to give them my support to get further economic opportunities in the smaller communities so that they will be provided with funding because since we couldn't get some funding in the smaller communities they haven't had an opportunity for economic development.

Mr. Speaker, as Nunavut residents we now have our own Nunavut Government and some of the statutes and the legislation have not reflected Nunavut so therefore we have to amend the legislation so as to reflect Nunavut.

-----
When we bring our carvings down south they become very expensive and for that reason Mr. Speaker, in Nunavut private businesses should be viable and have more economic development opportunities because we need a proper future, especially when the cost of living is going up annually in Nunavut.

Mr. Speaker through the community consultation process and as well, constituency meetings here in Iqaluit, one of the main issues that has been brought up are capital projects.
***************

I believe it was a number one issue in the overall consultation process for all the communities.

-----
Mr. Speaker in Iqaluit the issues that were raised regarding some particular projects or things in Town were raised by some of the long term Inuit that have boats and go out on the Bay quite a bit in the summer time.
*************** 
isumaaluutigijangit pijumallutik qaummaqqutimi mallirviuluaqtailijjutimi.
-----
Their concerns were for the need for lighting down at the breakwater beach area.
***************

-----
That it was not a very well lit area and you know there is some potential danger there as a result due to the large number of boats that we are seeing.
***************

Another concern that they raised was the state the breakwater has had some ice damage and things going on there they would like to see repaired.
***************

As well as a proper stairs or something a way to access the breakwater regardless of where the tide is at.

Whether it is the Hamlets communities outside of Iqaluit or the Town Council so we will be having discussions on the issue of dockage for the communities that do not have it.
***************

However in that same project what was not taken into account and therefore it was not budgeted, is the issue of dock lighting and street lighting for a lack of a better definition.
***************

However I would like to inform the Honourable Member and the people of Nunavut that we will be having further discussions on the issue of docks and how we can better plan to build docks in the communities that need it.

This report is being written at the end of the first year of operation of the Government of Nunavut.

-----
It has been an exciting year, during which the Government has had to balance basic implementation tasks, such as getting staff and new programs in place, with the need to develop new visions and new ways of doing business that will better meet the needs of Nunavummiut, and, in particular, better reflect the cultural aspirations of Inuit. As a new Government, we inherited most of the statutes of the NWT and, by necessity, many of its procedures and policies have had to continue in order that core services could be provided.

-----
All of these laws, procedures and policies will have to be reviewed, one-by-one, and it will take time to do this. Nevertheless, an impressive amount of work has been done in the past year that has begun the process of change.

The Standing Committees have been mindful of this context and, as this report will outline, they have endeavoured to play their part, both in terms of implementation issues, and in helping to give direction for made-in-Nunavut approaches to the important work of Government.

Standing Committees play a fundamental role in a parliamentary democracy. There are five Standing Committees of the Legislative Assembly of Nunavut.

-----
While the Executive Council (or Cabinet) has the authority to develop laws, policies and budgets, it is the Standing Committees that have the responsibility to review these initiatives in detail before they are approved in the Legislative Assembly. The Standing Committee review process also provides a forum for public input.

If concerns are raised in the Committee, it is the responsibility of the Government to then review and address these concerns. Over the past year, Standing Committees have been involved in reviewing legislative proposals, draft Bills, Bills, draft business plans, draft budgets, reports and other documents which have been referred to them.

These budget documents had, by and large, been developed by departmental officials under the guidance of the Office of the Interim Commissioner. As such, they very much kept the status quo of the previous budgets of the GNWT, as they would have applied to Nunavut.

-----
Members did not feel that there was much room to make changes at that time, and gave what direction they could for where they hoped Departments would move, given that there were now elected officials in place to speak for the people of Nunavut. However, Standing Committees requested a 6-month review in October 1999 in order to better review actual budget expenditures at that time and give further direction for changes.

The Department of Finance then initiated a budget consultation process in November 1999, which saw a whirlwind tour of officials, Ministers and Regular Members visiting every community in Nunavut to hear input on the budget.

During a January 2000 retreat in Cambridge Bay, the Minister of Finance presented a budget development schedule that was agreed to by the Regular Members.

It was clear to Regular Members that the timing of the process would be limited by the fact that information still had to obtained from Departments and reviewed and approved by the Financial Management Board, before it could go to the Standing Committees.

It was the expectation of the Members that any concerns raised during these reviews would be incorporated into the final documents before they were formally tabled in the House and this was one of the valuable reasons for conducting the preliminary review.

The Committees are well aware of the number of needs in Nunavut, but do not want to see Nunavut fall into the debt trap that deficit spending results in.
***************

Indeed, the Government has a budget surplus.

-----
The Standing Committees are somewhat concerned that the actual amount of the surplus has been quite elusive over the past year and also disappointed that the Government did not respond to Standing Committee proposals as to how the surplus could have been allocated in the second half of the year.
***************

In the Fall of 1999, Members were advised that the surplus would be around $10 million.

-----
While Members appreciate that the actual number will not be determined until the full audit of the previous fiscal year, they nevertheless suggested that some of the surplus be allocated immediately to the two stated priorities of the Government -- housing and education.

The fact that the capital budget for the Housing Corporation was reduced in this year's budget sends the wrong message about what "priority" means.

Similarly, while the overall Education budget was increased a very small amount, there were cuts to such key areas as libraries, early childhood programs and adult literacy.

-----
The overall budget picture is not dramatically different from last year. It is evident that without full staff and all programs in place, it is difficult to adequately assess how delivering programs in Nunavut may require adjustments in the budget.

The capital budget was a source of concern to Members as many priority needs of communities do not appear to be on the list and it is not clear when in the future some of the projects will actually begin.

As well, there were very explicit examples where Members perceived some unfairness and Members were disappointed at the lack of response to the concerns raised during the February review of the draft capital estimates and the lack of leadership by the Government in the discussions in the House when these concerns were raised again.

After the time-pressured review of the budget last year, Members looked forward to a more measured review of the budget for the new fiscal year, with more time and more information from Ministers and their Departments.

However, because of the timing of receipt of information, the schedule this year was still very constrained and there was a lot of pressure to move quickly through large volumes of materials and vote quickly on capital projects in order to meet sealift deadlines.

In reflecting on the Fall 1999 consultation process, it is clear that many hamlets and organizations did not seem to understand that this was the time to raise their formal capital and program needs, and this information is lacking from the pre-budget consultation report.

In particular, the Government has committed to developing a Five-Year Capital Plan, and the Standing Committees would support a solid budget consultation process with local governments and the residents of each community in establishing their priority needs and the order in which they feel they should be met.

nalunaiqsimalirmat tavvani arraagumi piusiulauqtut takutsugit kiinaujait atuqtutsait akitujunut nunavumi qimirrujauqattatutsatunnaugiangit sivunituqangagut taimaijungngimmata tavvani arraagumi.
-----
It is clear from the experience this year that the review of capital estimates in Nunavut has to begin months earlier than it began this year.
*************** 
gavamakkut saqqiilauqsimammata nalautsaaqtausimajunik maatsi 24-mi, pinasuarusilimaatuinnarmi nalliutigunniitillugu kiinaujait arraagunga, ammalu pinasuarusiit pingasut aniguqpata matuvitsaqalauqsimatsutik umiarjuakkut tikisaangumajut.
-----
The government introduced the Main Estimates on March 24, less than a week before the new fiscal year, and only three weeks for some of the sealift order deadlines.
*************** 
gavamakkut uqausiqarajalauqpata atausirjuamingunniit isumaalugutigijamik ajauqtiit katimajiralaanginnut qimirrullutik kiinaujait akitujunuungajutsat nalautsaaqtaumaninginnik vivvuarimi ilaqaqsutik ministanik, taitsumani qanuinniujujuq taimaigajaqtutsajaujungngittuq.
-----
If the Government had addressed even one of the concerns that the Standing Committees had raised during their review of the draft capital estimates in February with Ministers, the tone of debate in the House might have gone differently than it did.
*************** 
kisianili taitsumani gavamakkut tusaqtuujaalaungngittut isumaalugutilimaanik, taimaimmat maligaliuqtiit uqausiqakkanniriaqajujut isumaalugutimininnik kiinaujait qanuqtuurutautillugit, isumatsaqsiurutauqujigaluamut isumaalugutiminnik gavamakkunnut.
-----
But it appeared that the Government ignored every concern, so Members had to raise them again during the Budget debate, in the hope that the Government would consider the concerns at this time.
*************** 
taitsumani minista sanajulirijikkunnut piqutilirijikkunullu tusaqtitsitainnalauqsimammat gavamaqarvimmi ipurul 18 25-milu isuigijaulauqsimajuq maligaliuqtinut, mitsiqarajaruni tamanna tusaqtaumagiirajalauraluarmat qanuqtuurutaugiangngaliqtillugit kiinaujait maligaliurvimmi, taikkua sanajatsait uqausiuqqarajajumullutik.
-----
The fact that the Minister of Public Works only informed the House on April 17 of sealift order deadlines of April 18 and April 25 was galling for Members, as common sense would have suggested that this information should have been made clear at the beginning of the budget debate in the Legislative Assembly, so that those projects could have been addressed first.
*************** 
sulikkanniq akauniaqsaq, qanuqtuurutauqattaqpata kiinaujait akitujunuungajutsat akiatsaakkut, sivunituqangagut umiarjuakkut tikisaarigialiit matuvitsangata, ammalu taqqinik pingasuujuqtunik/arvinillinnik sivuvaqsimaqattarlutik uqausiugunnaqullugit isumaalugutigijat apiqqutigijauvattulluunniit.
-----
Better still, the whole debate on capital projects should happen in the Fall, well in advance of any sealift order deadlines, and with a six-month lead time to address any outstanding issues or questions.
*************** 
nalunangngitsiaqtuq, angiqtausimajuqaliqpat ukiunut tallimanut parnataumajunik kiinaujanik akitujunuungajutsanik, tamakkua pijariakillisimaqattarajaqtut arraagutamaat.
-----
Clearly, once there is an approved Five-Year Capital Plan, this need may become less acute each year.
*************** 
kisianittauq maligaliuqtiit takugumaniaqtut akitujunuungajutsat kiinaujait nalautsaaqtaumaninginnik arraagumut 2001-2002-mut arraaguup qitiani qimirruniqalirutik gavamakkut pilirivingitta aulanirivattanginnik aktuuvauliqpaq, sivuliarutait parnamagialiit ukiunut tallimanut parnataumalirmangaata parnataumangngimmangaataluunniit.
-----
But Members will want to see the draft capital estimates for 2001-2002 at the time they conduct the mid-year review of departmental operations in October, whether the Preliminary Five-Year Plan has actually been developed or not.

-----
The Standing Committees were pleased to have secured a commitment that the 2000-2001 Business Plans for all Government of Nunavut departments would be tabled in the Legislative Assembly this year, making them public documents available for anyone to read.

-----
The Bathurst Mandate articulates the long-term goals and vision for where we want to be in twenty years. Each department's Business Plan sets out the tangible ways by which we'll get there.
*************** 
atunit piliriviit parnasimajangit
-----
Equally important, they set benchmarks for success and progress that will be important tools of accountability in measuring ministerial and departmental performance in the year to come. The Standing Committees were also pleased to see the Business Plans evolving for different departments, reflecting both the concerns of the Standing Committees, as well as a growing appreciation of how departments will address their responsibilities in ways that will more truly meet the needs of Nunavummiut.
*************** 
nalunaijaisimajut sivumuppalliagutitsanik.
-----
Departments should be generally proud of their Business Plans. Many of them are very ambitious and hopeful of great changes in short amounts of time.

We would observe that it would be useful to further standardize some aspects of them across the Government. For example, some are much more detailed than others.

-----
Many of the Business Plans outline plans to review legislation or policies and procedures under their jurisdiction, in order to produce "made-in-Nunavut" solutions.

-----
The Standing Committees applaud these plans, but express their hope that the appropriate balance be struck between "review processes" that don't appear to start or end, and actually getting important new legislation, policies and procedures for Nunavut in place.
***************

It would be useful to have a broad, Government-wide set of guidelines on what the concept of "appropriate consultations" should entail, as we begin to undertake these processes in earnest.

It would also be helpful to receive an overall list of priorities for change, so that the Standing Committees could also identify how they can contribute to these important review processes over time.

The overall role of the Law Reform Commission remains somewhat unclear, especially with respect to how its work will coincide or overlap with ongoing or proposed departmental reviews of existing legislation.

Finally, it is incumbent upon the Government and, in particular, its central agencies, to do a better job of making public in the Assembly new policies and procedures as they are developed and approved.

Members of the Legislative Assembly were pleased to have had the opportunity to discuss in the public forum of the House the Government's new NNI Policy and hope this will occur for all important new policies.

Lastly, the Departmental Business plans outline the decentralization plans and in a more general manner, the Inuit Employment objectives as they apply to each department.

-----
Members want to state very clearly that the decentralized communities and Inuit in Nunavut have high expectations that steps will be taken to ensure that these plans are carried out and Members will want to hear about their progress at the mid-year review.

We as the Nunavut Government created the department of Culture, Language, Elders & Youth and it is very important because it is related to Inuit Qaujimajatuqangit.

It is a very slow process in the schools in regards to instruction in the Inuit language and also the timeframe where they might set aside 10 minutes that will deal with the Inuktitut language and curriculum for the year 1999/2000 since the creation of the department of Culture, Language, Elders & Youth within the Nunavut Government.

At that time last year the only reason why I withdrew my motion to do that was that I received a commitment from the Minister of Finance and the Minister of Culture, Language, Elders & Youth at the time that there would be some dollars allocated for these purposes this year.

I am just wondering if in this case if there are items that are on display at the Prince of Wales Heritage Centre which is displaying them as a way of attracting or bringing people into the centre to look at, if the minister would contemplate approaching them on assessing them some type of a rental fee or a show fee or whatever. I don't know how those types of things are handled at that level in different museums, but I know that usually when someone wants to send an exhibit around it costs somebody something.

-----
In the capital estimates and the main estimates that were tabled within the House as well as the capital substantiation sheets, the amount under Culture, Language, Elders & Youth for heritage centres it says, not heritage centre, as turns out to be the case, was listed in those documents as various Nunavut communities.

The reason why it is heritage centres is that we want to be open to future projects coming from communities, so that's the main purpose of having it as heritage centres, we don't want to shut the door once Cambridge Bay is done.

Also the fact that it was also shown in the headquarters budget and not allocated to any specific region, which again as we found out after, seems to be the case that it is allocated not only to one particular region but to one particular community.

However, again I would like to ask, what rationale could be given for this amount to be reflected, not just showing the centres, but the dollars not actually being reflected in the budget in the main estimates as to where they are actually going to be spent.

If you look under the distribution of the budget in the main estimates, it shows a break down of headquarters, Baffin, Keewatin and Kitikmeot.
*************** 
aggusimaniatigu pitaqamata piqjua kiinaujat tasumanga pilirivviujumu turaangamata tamainu nunavu nunalinginnu.

In that break down it clearly shows that the capital dollars for this department are for various Nunavut communities.

***************

It is a very encouraging step forward to have the Honourable Alfonso Gagliano, MP, Minister Responsible for the Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation participate in our housing forum and to come away from those meeting with a renewed commitment from the Federal Government to work with the Provinces and Territories to begin to address housing challenges in Canada using a partnership approach.

In regards to all carvers in Nunavut we have allocated more funding to provide assistance to the carvers and small business owners, and we're also trying to assist the bigger businesses so that they can expand.

We are trying to set up a Nunavut Art Bank, so that we could provide more help to those people who might need it, in the communities.

I'm looking forward to working with the artists and we are hoping that we will have these programs in place in due time, so that the carvers and artists will have opportunities to sell their products.

We had the Minister of Health from British Columbia here specifically in July, with the senior staff, and as you know Mr. Speaker, and some of the members know, the jurisdiction of British Columbia has probably the most stringent and aggressive anti-smoking and anti-tobacco legislation in the country.

At the same time Mr. Speaker, we have been working with the Department of Education, when we had the British Columbia team here, we also had some of our senior people from the Department of Education looking at outlines that we can forward at the school level and also work that we can do with our Community Health Representatives at the schools.

Thank you Mr. Speaker, that's a good question, maybe I should go back to the first and earlier question. What we're trying to do Mr. Speaker is put out a promotional campaign.

Now that was the answer to the member from Pond Inlet and we're doing that. We might go out and access the private sector forces, some of the promotional company communications people, go out to do that, and the member is right.

So we're moving forward on that. On the information that has been provided so far, and members again, we've worked with education, so far, to see what's available and what we should be using.

We're going to be targeting young people and that was what was announced in the budget, that's the material that we're trying to bring forward, we want to make sure that appeals to young people, and to appeal to their self worth of not starting smoking and that's what the promotional campaign is about and will be about.

Mr. Speaker the work Pauktuutit has done, as I said earlier is excellent material and we want to be able to probably develop and use some of that material also, so we were in contact with Pauktuutit, so that's an outside organization, for example, from the Government that we're also working with that the member had asked about earlier. I'd like to say Mr. Speaker, I don't have materials available right now.

Probably we are hiring a private sector company, to be able to help us develop some of these commercials and videos like ITSL or Sackett and Associates or one of these companies. Mr. Speaker, we are also looking at the MLA's themselves and hopefully having packages that MLA's will be able to bring back to their home communities and the main source Mr. Speaker, of course will be the work of our community health committees that we have set up in the community.

So Mr. Speaker the short answer is over the next 2 months, within 6 to 8 weeks, we would hope to have available for the members, for the public in Nunavut at large, promotional material for radio and for TV, advertisements in newspapers, and also stuff at the community level for hamlets and for the health committees.

Our government has quite frankly discussed that in detail not that long ago and one of the mechanisms we are trying to use to support those communities without targeted decentralized positions is trying in enhance the focus from the Sustainable Development side of things and economic initiatives and looking at the opportunities for stand alone institutions or government that may come up in the future into Nunavut.

If I understand the question properly, this member brought up, interesting area, concerns on the policies and procedures of the activities of Health and Social Services. In particular, Mr. Speaker we have moved as a Department towards incorporating more Inuit Qaujimajatuqangit within Health and Social Services.

-----
We've done that Mr. Speaker this year, for example through the business plan, inviting elders from across Nunavut from the different regions in Nunavut, to actually see and review our business plans to make sure that it has incorporated into its policies and its procedures Inuit Qaujimajatuqangit.

-----
After saying that Mr. Speaker, as the member knows under policies and procedures, we have just introduced and it is effective starting September 1st of this year, a new travel policy that is reflective, made in Nunavut, and a Nunavut approach to the medical transport policy that we have in place. Before we used to use the Government of the Northwest Territories policy which was haphazardly used in the three different regions of Nunavut.

-----
So the policy that was there for medical travel or escorts in the Keewatin, as an example Mr. Speaker, wasn't the same as in the Baffin. So we've taken the recommendation of the member and from the Standing committee on Health and we brought in a new travel policy.

-----
Under the policies and procedures we have done a lot of work under Health and Social Services to make sure that they are Nunavut friendly, that they incorporate Inuit Qaujimajatuqangit, that they sustain that Mr. Speaker. Like most Government Departments, I think we have a long ways to go yet, Mr. Speaker, but we have to start somewhere, and I think out of the past 14 months, the Department of Social Services has Mr. Speaker, made an honest effort and has accomplished quite a bit in regards to the policies and procedures of the department.

What you have said is very clear and your goals and objectives are very interesting, that is what we wanted to hear, but I cannot figure out what you have accomplished so far. I want to see this and we can probably appoint a commission who will deal with reviewing the policies and procedures, instead of just putting in everything into place all at once.

It should be done because we have seen a lot of side effects of these policies and procedures, so we Members of this Legislative Assembly should be dealing with Acts that will effect the Acts of Canada.

Mr. Speaker, there is something Mr. Speaker, we should say here, that is under the leadership Mr. Speaker, of our premier over a year ago, in discussions and in co-operation with the Minister of Justice, Mr. Anawak, Premier Okalik introduced a law reform commission to look at all the laws of Nunavut to make sure that they are reflective of Nunavut.
***************

-----
On policies and procedures Mr. Speaker, as I said earlier, in the Department of Health and Social Services, and I can specifically speak to that, we just created a new position within the department, with Rosemary Cooper, who is our Assistant Deputy Minister of Health and Social Services, and now she is in charge of policy and procedure for the Government of Nunavut.
***************

-----
One of the things that we are doing within the Government of Nunavut Department of Health and Social Services with Rosemary Cooper, an Inuk from here in Iqaluit from Nunavut, is to look at all policies and procedures of the department.

-----
I think Mr. Speaker, the problem is the government sometimes and as a department, we are not really communicating, Mr. Speaker, some people can do it better with their hands, like Mr. Ng, we are not communicating as well to the constituency at large, to the government as a whole on what individual departments and indeed what the government has accomplished in a lot of these areas.

In July of 1999, Hattie Amitnaaq heroically gave her life to protect her grandson and another young camper.

Norman Haqpi who was fishing in the area along with Diane Haqpi and Alex Tiktak managed to rescue one of the children by crawling out on his stomach and using a long ice scoop to reach him.
***************

The other child was also pulled to safety where they were immediately rushed to the health centre.

***************

These individuals deserve our heartfelt recognition for their selfless contributions to the community and to Nunavut.

Uqaqti, this year, the millennium year has been one of many special events.

The stamp features the work of Baker Lake carver Paul Toolooktuk who has been carving for over 40 years.

That's because special collections such as this one are not issued in rural post offices and as we know every post office in Nunavut is rural.

-----
I look forward to some day when Nunavut will not only get much deserved recognition of Inuit artists such as Toolooktook but will also have representation on Boards such as Canada Post so that the interests of Northerners, who is us, in receiving special additions or protection from rising postal rates can also be recognized.

-----
Mr. Speaker, let me just say that myself and the Premier and the Government of Nunavut are disappointed with the amounts that were put forward under the Canada Health Social Transfer and as you know Mr. Speaker, CHST includes social transfers, monies for education, early childhood education as well as health.

It is not specifically just for health.

Because the funding is based per capita, Mr. Speaker, not based on need, not based on patient costs, when we extrapolate out of the 4.2 billion dollars that was announced at the meeting, and I was there, when we extrapolate those numbers Mr. Speaker, because it is based on per capita, it's approximately 1.8 million dollars for health.

nakurmiik, uqaqtii.
-----
Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I would also like to thank the Premier for responding to my question.
*************** 
uqaqti:
-----
Just to go on a little bit further. There are a lot of seagulls in the summer and there are many ravens in the winter.
*************** 
minista anaruaq.
-----
I believe that with so many birds around this may be in violation of federal safety standards or rules because all of these birds are attracted to the facilities such as the dump that are too close to the airport. I would like to ask the appropriate minister if there is going to be any funding set aside so that we can work on these problems.
*************** 
minista jaak anaruaq (tusaajitigut):

-----
In reference to Taloyoak we will have to go back there again to check out the facilities and as we have stated Kimmirut, Pangnirtung and Repulse Bay are our priorities because of the length of their airstrips.
*************** 
kisiani pillugu taluqjuaq qaujimajunga attanaqtuutuinnariaqarianga timmiarasai tappaaniirajaqattatuaqpata aujami amma ukiami naujait tulugaillu.
-----
But in reference to Taloyoak I am sure there is a potential safety hazard if there are a lot of birds around in the summer and winter with the seagulls and ravens.
***************

-----
Mr. Speaker, what I was saying was that whenever we deal with airports the first and foremost issue is safety of course, and at this point in time we have been concentrating on three airports and that was Kimmirut, Pangnirtung and Repulse Bay.
*************** 
kimmirummi timmijuukkuvik nailuaqtuq, panniqtuumi qitilluatsianganiittuq nunaliit amma naujaani qaniluaqtuq.

In Kimmirut the airport is too short, in Pangnirtung it is right in the middle of town and the one in Repulse Bay is too close.

-----
However, the member's statement on the Taloyoak airport being too close to the garbage dump and the fact that in the winter there are a lot of ravens and in the summer there are seagulls, we would have to take a look at it and I would at this time like to just state to the member that we will consider the point that he has made in regards to the Taloyoak airport.
***************

My question is in regards to his department. As a smaller community in Nunavut there are a lot of challenges that we have to face and the communities rely very much on their leaders who also have to follow the many regulations and laws that we have, and it does create problems when we try to deal with the social issues.

-----
For some time now, Nunavut Tunngavik Incorporated, NTI, has given its employees a paid holiday on July 9. In 1999 and 2000, the Government of Nunavut encouraged departments to plan cultural events and festivities for its employees on the day.
***************

-----
The current civic holiday that takes place on the first Monday of August would be eliminated, and a new statutory holiday, Nunavut Day, to be celebrated on July 9, would be introduced. Given that this initiative was one that would touch the daily lives of all Nunavummiut and their families, the Standing Committee committed to consulting extensively on the Bill prior to returning back to the House with its recommendations.

-----
Mr. Speaker, we have found that while there is support for designating July 9 as Nunavut Day, it is by no means unanimous, and it needs to be clearly acknowledged that there is considerable opposition from the public to eliminating the civic holiday presently held on the first Monday in August.

Mr. Speaker, the Government has estimated that the financial cost of adding a new holiday would be in the vicinity of $1.5 million to the GN, housing authorities, hamlets and other organizations.
***************

(interpretation) I should also note, Mr. Speaker, that the Committee had concerns with respect to the status of ongoing collective bargaining between the NEU and the government.

-----
It is our understanding that the government cannot on its own remove the first Monday in August as a paid holiday for employees covered by the collective agreement, even if the Bill were passed as it is.
***************

-----
The message that we have heard is that while the introduction of a new holiday on July 9 would please many people, the proposal to eliminate the present civic holiday in August has caused even stronger feelings.
***************

-----
Mr. Speaker, I believe it is fair to say that if the government were to amend the Bill so as to retain the civic holiday in August while still introducing a new holiday in July, that amended piece of legislation would be widely supported across Nunavut, and likely gain speedy passage through the House.
*************** 
naammagajaqtuq uqaqsimattiaqtunik titiraqsimajunik saqqittikpata gavamakkut, tamatuminga pinnguqtittijjutauniaqtumik.

A formal statement on this suggestion from the government would be appropriate.

-----
However, I want to make it perfectly clear to the government and the public that this is not because we oppose the recognition of July 9 as a unique and meaningful day in our calendar.
***************

It is not because we disagree with the board of directors of NTI.

Quite simply, Mr. Speaker, it is because ordinary people have told us that they want to retain a practice that has served them well for many years.

Mr. Speaker, the Standing Committee strongly recommends that the present practice of the Government be maintained with respect to encouraging members of the public service to spend July 9 engaged in cultural activities sponsored by their departments.

We would encourage the Government to revisit the idea at some point before its term of office ends, with a view to examining whether it can be implemented in such a way that respects the public's desire not to lose what it already has.

Local staff have received business experience and training through these co-ops and over 12 million dollars annually Mr. Speaker, has been paid out in wages. Co-operative play a significant role in our northern economy from selling merchandise, building stores, and hotels through marketing arts and crafts, as well as being involved in investment and other ventures.

The co-operative system shares many of the basic principles that we know are key for the successful northern society, the principles of self help, self responsibility, and the spirit of co-operation. Co-operatives offer a really good example of northern community empowerment by giving local consumers a role and voice in the business to provide them with services and supplies.

Mr. Speaker, at the Northern Premiers' Forum last spring it was agreed that Nunavut would take the lead on insuring the appointment of a northern resident for the board of directors of the Canada Post Corporation. Since that time, on behalf of northerners inall three territories, I have met with and written to both Prime Minister Chretien and Alfonso Gagliano, the Minister for Canada Post, concerning this matter and indicating the need to have the board of directors reflect the entire country.

Mr. Speaker, to date we have been working, Government of Nunavut officials have been working with NTI officials and some from the Federal Government in trying to lay out a framework and identifying issues and putting together what those issues are.

I can say from a personal perspective as the lead minister responsible, I am not trying to be vague answering the question about timing, because it is a very complex matter. From the perspective of being the lead minister, my intention to my cabinet colleagues would be to try to have the framework of the negotiations completed before the end of the mandate of this government to allow for an orderly transition laid out for the next government coming in as far as assumption of any of those responsibilities.

Mr. Speaker, no we don't think there will be an impact given that when we entered into the agreements on the Arviat health facility at that time it was our understanding that it met all the criteria for the public private partnerships and it was signed off prior to any of these changes from the accounting profession.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker, as the members know, in consultation with the Standing Committee of Health of this Assembly, the terms and draft terms of reference for the committees on health, which are attached to the Hamlets was tabled with the members.

The Hamlets have provided the administration support, the five thousand dollars that was originally put forward for the committees, was to be used for honorarium, to pay the members of the committees, sub committee of council, or it could be used for administrative support.

Mr. Speaker in some cases some of the Hamlets have not even accessed the five thousand dollars for the honorarium, they have used it for the administrative support, for the committees and that Mr. Speaker is purely at the discretion of the Hamlet.

Mr. Speaker, the Department of Health and Social Services has not given the administration support at the Hamlet level for the committees, but we have spoken Mr. Speaker, about providing administrative, legalistic as well as some the advocacy and confidentiality issues workshops, for the committees so they can be able to get up and run.

As an example, Mr. Speaker, in the community of Hall Beach, we have 2.5 PY allocations for nurses, we have two there right now, one is indeterminate, one is filled on a casual position basis.

So all of the strategies I just talked about, Mr. Speaker, the 22 recommendations of the nursing recruitment and retention, going nationally and internationally hiring and recruiting nurses as well as trying to bring forward market rates and bonuses and so on, is to be able to recruit Mr. Speaker and also to retain our nursing staff and the nursing complement.

Mr. Speaker, when our prospectors return from the land with their rock samples, they either send their samples directly to labs for analysis or they can meet with our geologists who can assist the prospectors to determine if the samples should be forwarded.

-----
Development of effective human rights protection in Nunavut is a key to recognition of equality and respect for all Nunavummiut. Since the 1960's all jurisdictions in Canada, except the NWT and Nunavut, have adopted a Human Rights Act to provide comprehensive human rights protection for its citizens.
*************** 
maannali nunavut pivalliatittivuq nutaamik inunnut pijunnautinik attuaniqaqtunik qanuilingallattaarninginnit nunavut.

Now Nunavut is in a position to develop an innovative human rights scheme that reflects the reality of our territory.

Why do we need a Human Rights Act?

A Human Rights Act is necessary to provide individuals and groups protection from discrimination in their day-to-day lives.

Unlike the Charter of Rights and Freedoms, which only applies to government activity, a Human Rights Act provides protection from discrimination by government and the private sector alike.

Courts, including the Supreme Court of Canada, have significantly expanded the protection offered by human rights legislation providing quasi-constitutional status to Human Rights Acts.
***************

Yet Nunavut still does not have human rights legislation of its own.
*************** 
maannaujuq ilaakkut atuni pijunnautitigut sapujjiniq nunavummi ajjigiitittinituinnauvuq maligaq.

Currently individual rights protection in Nunavut is based on the Fair Practices Act.
***************

-----
The Fair Practices Act is limited for several reasons.
*************** 
- iluikkarmik saqqijaaqtittinngilaq inunnut pijunnautinut sapujjijjummit.
-----
It does not provide comprehensive human rights protection.
*************** 
- isulivviqaqpuq tussirautingitigut, katujjiqatigiingujut suurlu kaanturaaqaqpattut sapujjaunngilat.
-----
It is limited in its application, significant groups like contractors have no protection.
***************

-----
It does not prohibit some well-established forms of discrimination.
*************** 
- saqqijaaqtittinngilaq sapujjinirmik aulataujumik pinirluttaunirmut;
-----
It provides no protection from systemic discrimination;
***************

Because the Fair Practices Act is inadequate in terms of protecting human rights, the Federal Government does not accept it as human rights legislation on par with the laws enacted in provinces or the Yukon.
***************

Mr. Speaker, I believe that I have said in the past that the government would look at and take into consideration support to any credit union proposal, maybe an expansion option of banking services that might come from the conventional banks to establish additional services.

Mr. Speaker, a little bit over a month ago, we approved the budgets for the Nunavut Power Corporation in Baker Lake and at the time Mr. Speaker, the budget was approved for a little over 48 million dollars for O & M, it did not include an increase for any rising fuel costs.

-----
Mr. Speaker, lower than anticipated costs for the operation of the headquarters of Baker Lake as well as increases in revenue projections based on the demand in growth, especially in some decentralized communities and here in Iqaluit, has for the time being Mr. Speaker, isolated us from having to increase the power rates.

Mr. Speaker, under the process for increasing rates or charging more. The Nunavut Power Corporation would have to do what's called a GRA.

Mr. Speaker at the same time we have an agency, formed under the Government like in the NWT and other jurisdictions called a Public Utilities Board which would have to review any rates application or increase.

We anticipate with the budget that was approved in Baker Lake that we will not have to raise the power rates Mr. Speaker, for at least until some time in the spring where we will take a look at it again. Our revenue projection shows us increases in revenue.

Community Input to Capital Plan

Mr. Tootoo:

-----
Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
*************** 
uqaqti, apiqqutiga ministangannut kiinaujalirijiit.
-----
Mr. Speaker, my question is for the Minister of Finance.
*************** 
uattiaru kiuqqaummat apiqqummut pijjutiqaqtumut akitujunut parnaummit.
-----
Earlier he responded to a question regarding the capital plan.
***************

-----
I believe actually last session, last week, he had indicated that the government and his department were developing this capital plan and once it was developed that we and the communities would get an opportunity to provide input on it.
***************

-----
Mr. Speaker, last February I asked the minister a similar question and he had indicated at that time that the communities would have input into the capital plan prior to it being developed as was the practice prior to April 1, and the creation of Nunavut.
*************** 
imailingaqquujimmat nunaliit akitujunut parnaummit uqausiqarviqalaunngimmata akitujunut parnatauvalliajunut.
-----
It seems like since then the communities haven't had any opportunity to provide input into the capital planning process.
*************** 
taimaimmat, qaujijulavunga qanga nunaliit pivissaqalaarmangaata, pivissaqaqtasinnalilaarmangaata, uqausiqarviqaqtitaulutik tamatuminnga.

So I am just wondering when the communities, will get an opportunity, finally, to have some input into that.

Mr. Speaker, when you use the word develop, that's a very broad word.
***************

So, it is a matter of what you interpret.

-----
Everybody interprets it differently and to me Mr. Speaker, the intent always was to try and develop a draft five year capital plan to give MLAs the opportunity to solicit some input and recommendations from what they saw from that draft five year or multi-year plan.
*************** 
tavvaniittilluta, uqalaurama kingullirmi katimaniulauqtumiuqquuqtuq, iliqqusirmik piliriaqarumallunga tusarunnaqulluta nunalinnit, asinginnillu attuqtaujunit turaakautigijumik arraagunut atausiunngittumut parnautimut.
-----
At that point, as I indicated at the last session I believe, we would work on a mechanism where we can solicit some input from municipalities, other stakeholders that are directly impacted by the delivery of that multi-year plan.
*************** 
taimali pimmariugivara uqaqtii, ilisarilugu atausiatuinnangittuummat pigiaqtitaq nuititait.

Then I think what's also important Mr. Speaker, to recognize it's not just a one-time initiative that you bring forward.
***************

That's where you would solicit more substantive input from municipalities and like I said, stakeholders and try to...and concerns of members, and try to work that in to future years capital planning needs.

Mr. Speaker, in the past, being a previous Hamlet Councillor, in the past, the Hamlet Councils were asked to submit their priorities and their five-year capital plan for their communities.

-----
Mr. Speaker, I would say that yes, from the perspective of the broad community consultations that we undertook, all of us, not just the government members, but regular members, all participated in a broad community consultation.
***************

Every community throughout Nunavut was visited.

Municipalities, the mayors, councillors, people from those communities came out at those community consultation meetings and gave us what they thought their priorities were.

Mr. Speaker, I guess the minister indicated that the consultation tour that happened last winter, and I would like to emphasize the word that he used on it, it was broad.
***************

They weren't asked what are your priorities for the next five years on the capital plan.

-----
I guess Mr. Speaker, maybe we should step back here and think of the reason why this government committed to putting in place a multi-year plan, a five year plan as it used to be referred to by the GNWT.
*************** 
uqarajaqtunga arraagunut atausiunngittumut parnautimik nunavut gavamanganut.

I would say a multi-year plan for the Government of Nunavut.

Like we said in the past, it should be deliverable for all the communities throughout Nunavut.

-----
Yes, I was a mayor, I have been involved on many councils and I had many opportunities as an MLA in the GNWT Legislature to look at draft five year capital plans of the Government of the Northwest Territories and to provide input on what we thought were the priorities of the communities.
*************** 
kisianili puiguqtailita amisuaqti tamakkua sivulliuqujaujut saqqitaulaunngimmata nalunaiqtavut.
-----
But let's not forget that many times those priorities that we identified were not delivered.

They were pushed back into subsequent years, future years on a continual basis.

That's why under the public consultations that we want to know realistically what's going to be able to be delivered to each community in Nunavut.
*************** 
taimannainninganut pinasuksimavugut tukiliarniqarumalluta tallimanut arraagunut parnautiliurnirmi saqqitaujunnaqtunit.

That's why we have tried, in trying to be consistent to develop a five year plan that is deliverable.

-----
When we say Mr. Speaker, we think in year three, that we will be able to deliver a health centre here, a school here, municipal infrastructure garages, water trucks, whatever the case may be, that's what we will do unless there are some circumstances, unforeseeable circumstances that create an atmosphere where we have to totally revamp the capital plan for that particular year.

In that case it would have to be a fully defendable decision because of the fact that the expectations will be there and that's why we wanted to try and solidify this whole process.

-----
I guess Mr. Speaker, I heard finally the rationale as to why they haven't been consulted in the past, or recently, is the fact that the government wants to put together a plan that they feel is deliverable.
***************

I agree wholeheartedly with the minister's rationale and that, but I would like to ask him, have they conveyed exactly that message to the mayors and the municipalities so that they know where things are at right now.

Whereas, this discussion with the Standing Committee led in May 2000 to NTI staff participating in a mission to Elections Canada in Ottawa along with the Standing Committee and Government of Nunavut staff to discuss possible approaches to co-operation, a mission which reinforced the belief that co-operation with the Government of Nunavut and possibly the Government of Canada, would be in NTI's interest;

Mr. Speaker, in October 1999, the Legislative Assembly referred the report of the Chief Electoral Officer of Nunavut, entitled:

With the pending creation of a new territory on April 1, 1999, the election in February 1999, ushered in 19 new MLAs who would form the first Legislative Assembly of Nunavut.

In addition to reviewing the specific recommendations contained in the CEO's report, the Standing Committee welcomed the opportunity to conduct a broader review of the Elections Act, in the hopes of making recommendations that will ensure this important legislation meets the needs of Nunavummiut.

This is part of the process of "beginning new", and it seemed appropriate that one of the first Acts to be reviewed in this manner should be the Elections Act.
***************

Mr. Speaker, the Standing Committee appreciated the thoughtful presentation of Mr. David Hamilton, the Chief Electoral Officer and his staff as well as other Nunavut election officials, who met with us during our consultation meetings.
***************

The Standing Committee also met with Elections Canada officials for a three day period and would like to thank these officials for their presentations on various aspects of elections at the federal level, as well as information on innovative approaches across Canada.

These meetings reinforced the importance of having elections administered by knowledgeable people who possess expertise and a deep commitment to the fair conduct of elections.

-----
Since the law governing the Northwest Territories election is the same law that is currently in force for elections in Nunavut, the Standing Committee Ajauqtiit felt that it would be useful to review the CEO's recommendations in his report on the Northwest Territories election.
*************** 
taijaullattaanngikkaluaqtutit ajauqtikkunnut qimirrujauniarniksamut, amisuuvut ilaakkuunganiqsait atuliqujaujut iluani pilirigajaqtunit ajjipalunganik iluanngijjutauvaktutq nunavuumi niruaqtulirinirmi.

Although not formally referred to the committee for review, there are many more specific recommendations contained therein that would address similar problems in Nunavut elections.

As well in his subsequent Northwest Territories report, the CEO had the opportunity to address some questions and suggestions made by the Standing Committee in their meeting with him.

The public consultations served to reinforce to the members the notion that while elections provide the foundation it is interaction with people that is, and will be, the lifeblood of democracy in Nunavut.
***************

Mr. Speaker, although the election in February 1999, was Nunavut's first official territorial election, elections and referenda have played a prominent role in Nunavut's history as one of the presentation's reminded the Standing Committee.
*************** 
"nunattiap avitauninga angiqtaulauqpuq apiqqutaujukkut niruaqtittinirmi 1982mi niruaqtiit nunavuunguliqtumi 90-ngit angilauqtutit avittinirmik. 1992mi sulikkanniq nunattialimaamut niruarnirmi apiqqutimi nalunaiqsikkannirutaulauqpuq killigijauniaqtumi tiurituarijauniaqtuunnuk marruunnuk.

"The division of the Northwest Territories was approved in a plebiscite in 1982 where over ninety percent of the voters in what is now Nunavut voted in favour of division. In 1992, another Northwest Territories wide vote affirmed the boundary between the two territories.

In 1993, NTI, created from TFN, held its first election voting in the leadership that would, over the next six years, help lay the groundwork for creating the Nunavut Territory and the Nunavut Government."
***************

"Although elections were not part of Inuit Qaujimajatuqangit, Inuit embraced elections as a measure of public support throughout the land claims process and the steps leading to the creation of the new territory.
***************

Elections allow us the means to govern ourselves."

The first Nunavut Election was administered by Northwest Territories Elections Officers under the authority of Mr. David Hamilton, the Chief Electoral Officer.

This itself was a first since previous territorial elections had been under the authority of Elections Canada and the Northwest Territories had recently negotiated the transfer of this responsibility.
***************

There were a number of changes over previous territorial elections to accommodate the needs of the north better.

The Standing Committee acknowledges the importance of some of the measures, such as the use of radio messages in Inuktitut and the preparation of election materials in Inuktitut which were mailed to each household.

-----
The CEO's report notes the voter turnout was over 88% of the eligible list of electors, which is in keeping with the high voter turnout during previous elections and plebiscites in Nunavut.
*************** 
kisianili isumaalunnaqtuqaqtuq niruaqtiit atiqarvingita nalauksittiarnirilauqtangit.

However, the caveat to this is the concern over the accuracy of the list of electors.

-----
There were relatively few incidents in the first Nunavut election, which are described in the appendices to the report, and most of them were ably handled with the CEO's discretion and/or will be better dealt with in the future by adopting the CEO's recommendations.
***************

The Standing Committee's additional recommendations for changes contained in this report are not meant to reflect negatively on the work of the Chief Electoral Officer and the Elections Officials in the first Nunavut Election.

In October 1999, the Legislative Assembly referred the Report of the Chief Electoral Officer of Nunavut, entitled Election of the First Legislative Assembly of Nunavut - 1999:

A New Beginning, to the Standing Committee Ajauqtiit for review. This report contained a number of recommendations for legislative and administrative reforms relating to territorial elections.
***************

-----
The election of the first Legislative Assembly in Nunavut was indeed a new beginning.

-----
With the pending creation of the new territory on April 1, 1999, the election in February of 1999 ushered in 19 new MLAs who would form the first Legislative Assembly of Nunavut.
***************

-----
Although Inuit had historically governed themselves according to Inuit traditional leadership and values, their lives had been governed in modern times by institutions in Ottawa and Yellowknife. The long cherished dream of Inuit for their own territory, fought for on the land claims table for over 25 years, and finally agreed to in the Nunavut Land Claims Agreement of 1993, came into being on April 1, 1999.
***************

The new public government would change the face of Canada forever.

-----
In addition to reviewing the specific recommendations contained in the CEO's report, the Standing Committee welcomed the opportunity to conduct a broader review of the Elections Act, in the hopes of making recommendations that will ensure that this important legislation will meet the needs of Nunavummiut.
***************

-----
This is part of the process of "beginning new", and it seemed appropriate that one of the first Acts to be reviewed in this manner by Members should be the Elections Act.

We want to administer them in a way that encourages participation, recognizes the uniqueness of circumstances of Nunavut, and at the same time are effective and fiscally responsible."

Since the law governing the NWT election is the same law that currently is in force for elections in Nunavut, the Standing Committee Ajauqtiit felt that it would be useful to review the CEO's recommendations in his report on the NWT election.

Although the election in February 1999 was Nunavut's first official territorial election, elections and referenda have played a prominent role in Nunavut's history, as one of the presentations reminded the Standing Committee.

"The division of the NWT was approved in a plebiscite in 1982, where over ninety percent of the voters in what is now Nunavut voted in favour of division.

In 1992, another NWT-wide vote affirmed the new boundary between the two territories. Later that year, in November, the Nunavut Final Agreement, upon which Nunavut's affairs today rest, was approved by nearly eighty-five percent.

The Standing Committee agrees with NTI that this history "reminds us of the strength of our democratic process in Nunavut. It is something we should all be proud of."

The Standing Committee wants to build on this history for the future. As one of the Members of the Standing Committee stated at the outset of the community meetings in September:

"Although elections were not part of Inuit Qaujimajatuqangit, Inuit have embraced elections as a measure of public support throughout the land claims process and the steps leading to the creation of the new territory. Elections allow us the means to govern ourselves."

-----
There were a number of changes over previous territorial elections to accommodate the needs of the North better, and the Standing Committee acknowledges the importance of some of the measures such as the use of radio messages in Inuktitut and the preparation of election materials in Inuktitut which were mailed to each household.

The CEO's report notes that the voter turnout was 88% of the eligible list of electors, which is in keeping with the high voter turnout during previous elections and plebiscites in Nunavut.
***************

However, the caveat to this is the concern over the accuracy of the list of electors.

-----
There were relatively few incidents in the first Nunavut election (which are described in the Appendix to the CEO's report), and most of them were able to be handled with the CEO's discretion and/or will be better dealt with in the future by adopting the CEO's recommendations.

The first election for the Legislative Assembly in Nunavut was governed by a specific piece of legislation adapted from the existing NWT elections law, entitled The Nunavut First Elections Act.

Therefore, the Standing Committee has focused its attention on the Elections Act that was duplicated from the NWT, which is the present law that will govern any future elections in Nunavut.

Some of these may change in light of the recommendations in this report.

However, because the Elections Act is such an important statute, and because there are many recommendations contained in this report that will require amendments to the existing legislation, the Standing Committee is of the opinion that a new Elections Act should be introduced by the Government of Nunavut.

The Report of the Chief Electoral Officer notes that the first Nunavut territorial elections cost almost $1 million ($977,035 in direct expenditures by Elections Nunavut, plus $161,591.38 in candidate election expenses).

The Standing Committee was advised that the main principle governing salaries is that the Returning Officers and other elections staff in each electoral district are paid essentially the same total amount for their services during the election.

It is likely that these administrative expenses will continue to rise in the future, as there are 26 growing communities and 19 electoral districts, each of which requires administrative services for an election.

The Standing Committee also received several representations on election expenses and staffing issues, to the effect that salaries are still low for the qualifications and the amount of time expended by some workers at election time and do not reflect the cost-of-living in different communities in Nunavut.

The Standing Committee is only too aware that there are many needs for every dollar in Nunavut. A million dollars is a lot of money to spend on an election and the Committee felt compelled to examine ways in which this money could be spent more effectively.

As noted earlier, there are a large number of elections that happen periodically in Nunavut, for different levels of government, including federal, territorial and municipal bodies, as well as organizations such as NTI, Regional Inuit Organizations, District Education Authorities, Housing Associations, Hunters' and Trappers' Organizations and others.

There are many difficulties associated with these tasks, compounded by the fact that they must be repeated at various intervals. If all of these organizations could work together, the Standing Committee is of the opinion that this would reduce duplication, maximize the use of existing resources, encourage better continuity and knowledgeable elections staff, expand the range of services available and provide more effective elections.

In order to facilitate the working group and in looking forward to the possibility of working together more permanently on elections, the CEO's appointment should be done in consultation with NTI and the other levels of government administering elections in Nunavut.

However, since the idea of the central office is that it be very limited in size, but work in solid partnership with a number of different organizations, the Committee feels that the organizations themselves are in the best position to decide where the office should be situated to maximize the use of existing staff and resources and make recommendations in this regard.

The Members considered the CEO's recommendation in the NWT report to reduce the nomination period from 10 to 5 days.

-----
In exploring the possibilities of working together with other jurisdictions and harmonizing some of the election rules, it was observed that the voting age for NTI and the Regional Inuit Organizations is 16 years old, whereas territorial, municipal and federal elections all require a person to be 18 years old before they can vote.

The Standing Committee was advised by the President of NTI that this age was adopted many years ago on the advice of Elders, as it is a traditional age of maturity, and it was felt that 16-year-olds should be able to vote on land claim matters affecting their future.

At the same time, they felt that allowing people to vote at the age of 16 was more consistent with traditional Inuit ways, which recognized responsibility at a younger age and gave young people the opportunity to try doing new things, as a way of learning.

Clearly, voters themselves will have to ensure that they have mailed in their ballot or sent it with someone to the elections office in time for it to arrive prior to election day. In order to ensure the maximum period of time is able to be used for sending and receiving mail-in ballots, particularly for students out of the jurisdiction, the CEO recommended in his NWT report that he be permitted to send people "write-in" ballots until such time as regular ballots are available (i.e.

He noted that a provision of the Local Authorities Elections Act allows a Returning Officer to establish a mobile voting station and that he had provided approval for the Returning Officer to transport the ballot box used at the office of the returning officer to electors who were confined to their home, hospital or care facility.

It may be that the mail-in ballot procedure would be used in voting in one's own home, but that it would be completed with the Returning Officer and given in person to the Returning Officer at the time, to be tallied with all other mail-in ballots on polling day.

If only one list was posted in the Post Office, people were sometimes confused if they didn't see their name on it, because they lived in another area of town and their list was posted elsewhere.

That the Elections Act should permit the Returning Officer, in consultation with the Chief Electoral Officer, to put all polls for an electoral district in a central polling station for Election Day or to permit the establishment of a separate polling station for a smaller number of people in order to deal with the geographic circumstances of that community.

However, the Standing Committee believes that once a person is elected and has become a Member of the Legislative Assembly, they become responsible to uphold the Code of Conduct agreed to by all Members and if they commit a criminal offence, they should be subject to any further requirements which are laid out in the Legislative Assembly and Executive Council Act as to whether they are able to retain their seat or run in another election.

In order for Nunavut to take advantage of electronic possibilities for elections, as well as be on top of emerging problems, the Standing Committee is of the opinion that there must be flexibility in the Elections Act to allow the Chief Electoral Officer to use his or her judgment to move quickly in the circumstances.

Rather than trying to predict the best approach to take us into the future, the Standing Committees believes that the Elections Act should be sufficiently broad to capture conduct which violates the spirit of fair election practices, no matter what the medium, even if we acknowledge that at times, enforcement may be difficult.

This small decrease can be accounted for in that the Government of Nunavut is competing with other organizations requiring the same knowledge and skills to fill positions.

The other major factor, Mr. Speaker, in recruiting and retention is the strong economic conditions across the country which have increased demands for a skilled and trained work force.

Mr. Speaker, the costs to purchase fuel during this year's re-supply have increased significantly from that of the previous year due to the increase of fuel prices on international markets.
***************

-----
The increases that have been experienced over the past 18 months are due to low U.S. inventory and the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries' decision to restrict production.

In addition, fuel products that are purchased on the U.S. markets are effected by the low value of the Canadian dollar compared to the U.S.

-----
Mr. Speaker, an increase of 13.9 cents a litre, which includes GST, has been approved by the Financial Management Board effective November 1, 2000.

The Financial Management Board also approved a ceiling of 98.9 cents a litre for home heating, diesel, Jet A-1 and gasoline.
*************** 
tamanna killigijauniaqtuq nunalilimaani pinngitatuarilugit gaasimik niuviaksaqaqpattut iqalunni.

This ceiling is for all communities with the exception of the retail gasoline operators in Iqaluit.
***************

-----
The FMB does not regulate the retail gas bar operators in Iqaluit.

-----
Given that the higher prices for the refined petroleum products experienced over the past year are likely to continue as long as international market conditions remain tight, this increase in retail prices will likely enable the GN to maintain stability in fuel prices over the next two years.
*************** 
uqaqtii, tukisiajaraluara isumaaluutaujuq nunavumiunut tamakkuninnga akitturutaujunit uqsuiluit akinginnit.

Mr. Speaker, from the respective of the honourable member's question about whether or not it could be public/private partnership financing for something such as a meat plant in Coral Harbour.
***************

From the perspective of if it was a government asset and we wanted to build that type of facility in Coral Harbour or any other community, it may be yes.

-----
I guess what I want to clarify, Mr. Speaker, is the honourable member speaking more of a private sector economic initiative versus government owned infrastructure, such as health facilities that we are looking at as possibly financing through the public/private partnerships.
***************

-----
I would think that in trying to be simple in answering the honourable member's question, if it was proved viable that the meat plant, it wouldn't be for the Department of Finance to determine that, obviously the lead minister would be Sustainable Development or through one of his corporations that he would be responsible for such as the Business Credit Corporation or the Nunavut Development Corporation.

-----
If they were to determine that a facility might prove economical or whatever other assets for providing employment opportunities in a smaller community, such as Coral Harbour, if that would prove to be economically viable or a decision was made to try to establish that type of facility, then we could look at what forms of financing would be available.

-----
Either conventionally as a regular loan through a business loan through one of the major banks or a financial institution or through an institution that the government, either directly or through a guarantee through the private sector, those kinds of alternative financing options would be considered, if a project like that was tried or trying to advance that for any community or any business venture.

What we are saying here is that given that we want to try and set up a central office to administer all elections in Nunavut that we would not pick that person on our own, that we would work in consultation with these other organizations to ensure that everyone's concerns and that, were met and it is also saying that it would be a competency based appointment.

Mr. Chairman, the reason that the fall was selected was actually that the exact individuals the minister talked about gave us those suggestions because of the fact that currently the elections are held in the middle of winter.

It is much harder for those people to get about and the idea was also brought up of having them in spring or summer and it was felt by most of the people in the communities that we visited that told us it was not a good time because at that time of year was when most people in the communities were not in the community.

It was also suggested for the reason that by having it during the week that allows elections officials, the last two days grace, as we call it when Murphy's Law kicks in and some things aren't working, or if some things don't show up on the plane.

Previously in the Legislation it states that elections will be held on a Monday, so prior to that if something wasn't taken care of on Friday, most times, by the time you realize something on that election day, you can't do anything about it, those two days before, because it's the weekend.

Mr. Chairman, in light of some of the other recommendations we are looking at, there will be recommendations that the use of new technology be allowed in getting this information to candidates and to individuals like to receive nominations forms.

That would alleviate the problem that was run into Whale Cove that dealt with weather. Also, Mr. Chairman, by reducing the timeframe for the election period by ten days, all the committee members felt confident that with this new technology that would be able to be used to distribute that information out there, this was one area they could cut in half to make up for some of the days, that ten days that were taken out of the campaign period.

Part of what was built into the process before was the fact that everything had to be mailed and done in original so, by eliminating that everything has to be done by mail and things can be downloaded immediately that was felt that cut in days was still adequate in the amount of time.

-----
By shortening that period time as the result of this new technology being used to be able to access information and the other part of Mr. Nutarak' s question was whether this nomination change would apply to other organizations and the answer to that is no, this deals specifically to territorial elections and in the event that the DEAs, HTOs and that they would go through the same process and it would be up to them to decide whether they wanted to change their nomination period or not.

Everyone has their own reasons for why it is the way it is and the member is correct sometimes, in the communities for those types of organizations they do extend the nominations because in some cases they don't have enough people put their name forward that they need more time in order to allow people to put their names in.

I am sure that members of this House will recall my statements, made on several occasions in the past that one of the principal barriers to economic development in our communities is caused by the difficulty people have getting information about our programs.

With this year's significant increase in funding to every Hamlet government for their community economic development staff, and the opening in each region of a Canada-Nunavut Business Service Centre, including a toll free telephone information line, our programs are now more accessible than ever before.

-----
Mr. Speaker, one of the keys to increasing the participation of our people in the Nunavut economy is that we make our available to them good information about what economic opportunities exist in our communities, and about the support that is available from government for people who want to take advantage of these opportunities.

When we hear people talk about climate change they are referring to the build-up of greenhouse gases in our atmosphere, and these gases directly interfere with our climate.

The burning of oil and gas to heat our homes and run our cars, and the heavy reliance of our industries on fossil fuels, results in carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases being released into the air, eventually accumulating in the atmosphere and causing the earth to heat up.

It could be a circumstance where there was a vacancy and there have been difficulties in filling the particular vacancies for various reasons, whether it be it was a specialized position, it had been vacant for quite a number, for quite a time, or the fact that maybe somebody was acting in that capacity for quite an extended period of time and gained the knowledge and skills to be able to carry out that position.

Perhaps the first question I want to ask is, we are all aware that as of November 1, fuel prices will increase to 98.9 cents litre. We were informed by the minister according to her report it said 86 cents per litre.

Right now before November 1, if a private homeowner were to fill all 250 gallons, which is about 1000 litres, right now it is 9 hundred 28 dollars and 96 cents.

-----
Those who rely on this oil reserve will be refuelling from it and after the refuel supply is finished, the oil prices will drop. Why not go into the red to help private homeowners, private business owners, hunters, vehicle owners, because we all know that during the winter more fuel is consumed.

-----
First of all, the 13.9 cents a litre increase was based on, there's two major reasons why we decided to proceed with the 13.9 increase.
*************** 
pijjutiulluatalauqpuq niuvilaurattigu uqsualutaavut julaimi, akingit uqsualuu silarjuarmi akitturiaqsimammat qitianiittumik 10-sa liitamut, niuvilauqtatinnik julaimi.
-----
It was primarily the fact that since we bought our fuel in July, the cost of fuel on the world market has increased an average of 10 cents a litre, from what we bought in July.
***************

-----
So what we decided, part of the strategy was if we can stabilize retail prices over two years and based on what we see happening in the world market, if the world price of crude remained at its current level, we would be in a position to maintain this price level for at least two years at the current level as of today.

In terms of the financial aspect of the approval, there was no approval, there's no guarantee, that the prices will not rise, not increase in 12 months.

-----
But if they stay in, based on the market conditions, they stay at the current level, then we should be able to live within the legislated limits of the stabilization fund, which is five million.

If next year the prices increase beyond that then we would have to re-evaluate our position and review our options at that time.

But right now the decision was made to try to stabilize the prices for at least the next two years, as opposed to having an increase this year and then going forward again next year.
***************

But if the prices on the world market do decrease, then we may be in a position next year to reduce the retail rates.

-----
I think my initial question, my very first question was about the conclusion that the government has come to by bringing the fuel prices up to 98.9 cents, when everything goes up in terms of fuel and power, everything else has a ricochet effect.

We also have a proposal, apparently I heard it on the radio, that hunter support, in terms of gas may be made in partnership with the NTI, and maybe the old age pensioners can be assisted in that area.

-----
If you, my initial question was, have you determined in subsidizing the fuel to keep it stable at 80 cents or 81 cents, considered that you will, the government will be saving more than just subsidizing everything else that the government service does.

I share the same concerns as the member, but you know I can only speak for the mandate of petroleum products and the mandate of petroleum products is that we have to recover our operating costs from the retail sales, within the five million dollar subsidization fund.

At least the minister told me that I was right. No consideration was given to potential overall costs ricocheting by the increase of fuel.

For example, the groceries, trucked services, power. Although the minister said that they will eat that up for now but for how long we do not know.

But as a minister did she not consult with her cabinet colleagues and say we will have to subsidize even more because there is a danger of an overall increase in goods and services in Nunavut that will ultimately, the consumer who is the buyer will pay.

People who may be working will be going to income support and I am sure, I know for a fact, when I worked at the Housing Corporation, these are outdated numbers here in Iqaluit for example, the shelter cost to maintain a home here three years ago and I am sure it increased since then, was about 664 dollars a month. Now on the programs that we had at the time, people were eligible for housing, homeowners that qualified for the program and it was based on those numbers and the level of assistance that was put out was quite high so a lot of those people like under the old EDAPP program, my guess and it is just a guess, anyone that received more than 50% subsidy or assistance would not be able to afford to maintain their homes as a result of the increases.

-----
Some examples of these programs are the Community Harvester Assistance Program, which provides support to outpost camps. The Fur Price Program which provides trappers and seal hunters a guaranteed price for their pelts, core funding for Hunters' and Trappers' Organizations and Regional Wildlife Organizations for their participation in co-management of wildlife.

Mr. Speaker, these programs were originally established by the Government of the Northwest Territories to meet the need of a wide range of people in the former Northwest Territories.

With the creation of the Nunavut Government it seemed appropriate for my department to review these programs to see if they could be changed to meet the specific needs of Nunavummiut.

Mr. Speaker, at the beginning of the question I think I take exception to the fact that I do not regard Inuinnaqtun as being as important as the others.
***************

I consider Inuinnaqtun just as important as Inuktitut or English.

I suspect the reason that Inuinnaqtun has not been translated for us is because of the shortage of staff on the interpreters side.

We have to look at the whole of Nunavut and how we can operate more efficiently.

Myself I do not like to talk about regions because I see Nunavut as one whole territory.
***************

Like I was saying, there are different dialects and different people in each individual region.

Probably the reason that the regions were created was that it was someone bringing it in from outside the territory.

I hear that there is a reservation that crosses four States and it uses a single time zone.
***************

Because they want to work together and they want the people out there to know there is unity in this particular reservation even though it is in four States.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker.

-----
That mobilization plan will be taking a look at all the initiatives and responsibilities from our mental health workers, our social workers, our Nurses, grief counsellors, and Mr. Speaker, people who are at the community level, who do work who aren't in a profession, and I'm talking about Mr. Speaker, volunteers, church people and so on.

-----
In a lot of cases people have to come forward and ask for that help. In most cases with suicide it doesn't happen but, within a 24 hour period, in most cases, we see Mr. Speaker, a symptom of suicide where people give;

they sell off some of their clothes, they give away things, they write notes and so on and then we are able to move in, and hopefully have successful prevention of a potential suicide.

We will also try to bring out some of these areas of discussion, Mr. Speaker, that the member talked about earlier, 38 successful suicides since April 1, 1999. I think sometimes Mr. Speaker, myself included, we thought that on April 1, 1999, things would dramatically change.

They haven't, Mr. Speaker, change takes time, we talked about that with the member before, it's like smoking, 5 years ago you could go into any house in Nunavut and find people who smoke in front of children and babies and so on. Today I will challenge you to find a house in Nunavut where people smoke in front of children and so on, everyone has a cold porch, they smoke outside, that has taken "x" number of years to learn that.

Suicide is not an appropriate response to stress when dealing with real problems. Mr. Speaker, by bringing it up in this House, by members' statements, by bringing it back to our communities and working with our families, that is the way Mr. Speaker, the Government of Nunavut and the members here and the people of Nunavut could be successful in preventing suicide.

That is the statement that the Government of Nunavut made and I can tell the member, I do know that the people of Uqsuqtuq and Pangnirtung and Igloolik, Pond Inlet, these larger communities and all the Nunavut communities, for example Pelly Bay needs a gym, which is urgent.

So if we were to index the stabilization fund, if that was an option, what would need to be done, there would need to be a submission put through the Financial Management Board and I think then it would become part of an amendment to the Revolving Fund Act which would have to be carried out though the Legislative Assembly.

The volumes that if we were to look at reducing the price of diesel home heating down to half of what has been approved and decrease the price of gas, you are probably looking at about 4.5 to 5 million dollars that would be covered through the revolving fund. In September the revolving fund limit was 1.5 so if we were to go ahead then we would likely exceed the maximum level limit under the revolving fund.

The way it is, we looked at whether the government would go into a deficit situation, or according to this figure, are we going to try to keep out of a deficit situation.

As the minister stated earlier, and as Mr. Tootoo stated, they reviewed various options, in regards to putting it at 98.9 cents so that it wouldn't have an adverse effect on the people out there.
***************

But what else happened, the minister stated that 13.9 cents would put it even with the 5 million dollar stabilization fund.

My question is, Mr. Chairman, by the way the Hansard will show tomorrow her statement that calculating to arrive at 13.9 cents will neutralize the stabilization fund to meet the maximum increase of 98.9 cents.
***************

That is a very simple accounting calculation Mr. Chairman, and with the same breath she was saying we considered all the options what ever we feel not to have too much impact on the Nunavummiut.

-----
She said that.
***************

My question was which are the simple calculations she is using right now with the proposal for November 1.

Or the other what Mr. Tootoo was asking all along.

The second question that I had Mr. Chairman is about the effect on government costs if we can cut the 13.9 cents in half.
***************

Mr. Tootoo roughly calculated approximately 3.4 million dollars or something along that line into the stabilization fund.
***************

-----
She said that it will effect the government costs.

She is saying having the increase of 13.9 cents will not affect the government costs in looking after the social housing for the people who are paying 32 dollars a month.

Mr. Chairman, this initiative has been introduced to address issues related to the administration of the Legislative Assembly and Executive Council Act and the appointment of independent officers by the Assembly.

This bill will amend the Act to empower the Speaker on the recommendation of the Management and Services Board to make regulations proscribing the rates for living allowances.

The second issue that the bill addresses is the appointment of an acting Chief Electoral Officer or the appointment of an acting Languages Commissioner should the Legislative Assembly not be sitting.

This Bill will clarify and streamline the process for making such acting appointments should the need to fill a vacancy in either office arise by empowering the Management and Services Board of the Legislative Assembly to recommend an acting appointment to the Commissioner of Nunavut.

For example, if I want to apply for a mortgage or loan at the bank, I will be told that if I am eligible I could apply for a 15 thousand dollar grant from the Housing Corporation. So they can refer you or the client to the Housing Corporation.

-----
The banks work with our staff and the banks already know the criteria for the eligible clients, so the salary limit is 125 thousand dollars per year and if a single person makes less than 125 thousand a year they would be eligible for the 15 thousand dollars, providing that they have been approved by the bank.

When the staff housing policy was approved by cabinet, there is a piece of information that I have been seeking for almost a year and a half now, so I am just wondering if he could take a look at that log and indicate the date on which that decision was made by cabinet.

Thank you Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, the Minister of Finance said in this House last week that the 5 year Capital plan was going to be developed, the intention was that this plan be developed by government in isolation taking a look at the priorities set by this government and not so much, I don't know how to say this, of a wish list that usually came from the communities, the way the past system was done.

I think his exact words were more like a realistic plan that could be implemented, and I guess I'm just wondering, based on this announcement today by the minister on developing a policy on artificial ice, is are we going to see a push for any of these things to be listed in the 5 year Capital plan.

Mr. Speaker, as the members know my background is recreation and one of the frustrations shared by many of the professionals in the field of recreation is the fact that when dollars get tight generally the first thing to get cut out of many budgets and programs are recreational dollars.

I know that other than the fact that its is going to have an impact on these groups I would certainly hope that the government would have looked at exactly what those impacts are going to be on those groups of people and whether or not those groups of people can afford that type of an impact on them, you know the rising cost on them, for example of a pensioner that is living here in Iqaluit.

Has the government looked at that impact on these types of people to determine whether or not they can sustain those increases. I think before making a decision on whether we go ahead with this I think we need to find out that information because if we pass or go ahead with this it is going to, my feeling is, I am sure I am not alone, is that this increase is going to inflict undue hardships onto those individuals and those organizational groups that are struggling right now from pay cheque to pay cheque.

Mr. Chairman, first of all Mr. Tootoo just said that he wanted to make sure that the people who are under privileged and so on were taken into account when the decision was made to increase the fuel prices.

Then we looked Mr. Chairman, at the total cost of the fuel itself, as well as the factors that the minister has responded to several times and Mr. Chairman, for the record, we also look at the impact not only at the local level, the community level, but at the constituency level.

-----
So I think for the record, we should point out that those types of decisions and those discussions were made, as the minister has tried to say several times and I do not appreciate the connotations that as a member of cabinet making decisions because my salary might be a little higher or something that we were not cognisant of the fact that other people's are not.

If we bought the fuel today it would have cost us 9 million dollars more over last year due to the fuel prices going up drastically.

Have there been some discussions as to considering for example, if the minister and the cabinet would consider cutting the 13.9 cents increase in half to lessen the impact on the communities, even recognizing that Sustainable Development and other government programs like Health and Social Services, Income Support will try to ease the blow by giving them subsidy or assistance.

Keeping that in mind, has she considered cutting the 13.9 cents in half so that we could have a set plan for our own individual economic plans for this winter because some people will have a very hard time getting their cash flow especially the new teachers and newly employed government civil servants in the decentralized communities or those who own a home.

Thank you Mr. Chairman. As of September 2000 the fund was 1 million 5 hundred thousand dollars in deficit, and if we increase the price 13.9 cents, by March 2001 the fund is projected at a 432 thousand balance.

-----
The other thing the members should remember is that after March 2000, it was after the Auditor General removed the 2.2 million dollars it was down to 342 thousand, but because of the new fuel, we subsidized the new fuel because not all communities were full and the price was increasing and we had to swallow that quite a bit.

That's why in September it went up to 1 million 5 hundred thousand dollars in a very short time, because we didn't increase the fuel price, so the bottom line is by September, 1 million 5 hundred thousand dollars if we increase it by 13.9.

What I am hearing now is, if I am correct, as of this year and with this increase, it is only going to have, a top end of 1.5 million dollars negative balance. So really there is still for this year it can have up to 3.5 million dollars of leeway in there.

At the end of the year, Mr. Chairman, it is my understanding of how the fund works, if there is an effect, the only time it effects the budget is just an area to keep track of the profits and losses of the revolving fund.

Mr. Speaker, I rise today to inform my colleagues that, effective March 31, 2001, the Department of Public Works and Services anticipates that it will not have to renew its asset management support services agreement with the Government of the Northwest Territories.

This 200 thousand dollar annual agreement has been in place for two years and was necessary as a result of severe staffing shortages experienced within the asset management function of Public Works and Services.

I just wanted to reiterate my colleague Mr. Picco's statement about the Elk's Club and their kind donation to the children of Iqaluit in regards to their hearing disabilities. Far too often we don't recognize the volunteers working in our schools, and the money that they contribute, whether it is fund raising or for things like that.

My biggest concern Mr. Speaker on education boards is, being involved with them myself and with the regional offices, there sometimes seems to be a shortage of trained and qualified staff to go out and work with the local DEA in regards to their accounting procedures.

Can the minister maybe make that a point that when they are going out and helping the education authorities, if they could look at providing some kind of accounting training to the local DEA Secretary Treasurers.

Mr. Speaker, my question today, you can probably guess because of my member's statement, is directed towards the Minister of Health & Social Services.

In the area of treatment, I am wondering if the minister can apprise us of any developments or any initiatives that they are looking at in pursuing that approach outside of the already mentioned local community councils that he has quite elaborately explained to us here in this House.

It does give us an opportunity as we had last week in some discussion and debate on suicides to bring up another important area under Health & Social Services, Mr. Speaker, the issue of alcohol and drug treatment programs.

So when the Department of Health & Social Services talks about the holistic approach we are trying to deal with the whole person and Mr. Speaker, when you talk about the holistic approach to healing that brings us back to what we talked about in Rankin Inlet in February.

If you do not treat those situations, you come down here to dry out for 6 weeks and when you go back to the community you are dealing with the same problems. Mr. Speaker, that is the holistic approach, you have to deal with the whole person.

You can not just deal with just the problem.

Mr. Speaker, I guess again, I would like to thank the minister for the answer that he gave and I take it that question I asked is do we send people out and I believe that he said that 95% of the people that they deal with don't require treatment in centres.

I guess what I'd like to get at in light of some of the earlier questions that members raised on Inuit Qaujimajatuqangit, is the department going to take a look at developing a made in Nunavut program, a treatment program that would incorporate the youth, elders and expertise that we do have at the community level.

Mr. Speaker, in light of the fact that we hope to continue to evaluate and review our delivery of programs and services, I am wondering if the minister could commit to taking a look at applications that were not approved to determine whether they were strictly income related or whether there were other factors.

My other question, on the 2000/2001 Main Estimates that we approved this spring, there was roughly a 600 thousand dollar amount that was to be going to Local Housing Organizations across Nunavut to increase their funding based on the five cent per litre increase that we all got last year.

I believe that amount was just for the last quarter and I am just wondering, I heard the President of the Housing Corporation on the radio earlier this week and she was indicating that they were going to be looking for required increased funding to offset the fuel increase to the LHO's in the communities.

These would have to be approved through legislation if there were any changes because the way the fuel prices are going we already know that when we purchased the fuel in July it has gone up by 9 million already so that is a 300% increase on the world market. So if there were any changes to be made they would have to be taken into consideration in those three acts through the legislation.

I am just wondering because based on all the questions and answers that we have heard over the last four days I guess and looking at it my understanding was that the only place that would require a change in the Act is the Stabilization Fund Act to increase that amount because right now it states that it is 5 million if that were done they would have to change that Act.

It was my understanding in meeting with and questioning Mr. Green, and when I inquired to officials from the Auditor Generals' Office, that any loss in the fund within the specified limits of the fund only showed as a liability or an asset if you have a positive balance in there on the balance sheet.

I guess, if a decision were made to increase or cut the price increase in half like that, how long would it take for the department to take the necessary steps to implement those changes and I appreciate what the minister said about the change would have to be an amendment to the price stabilization fund and consequential amendments to those other Acts.

-----
I would like to thank the minister and her witnesses, you have been sitting there for about four days and even though this was very important and very delicate and will effect us all, I know you have a large work load ahead of you and for that reason I would like to thank both of you, the Minister for Petroleum Products and Mr. Mrazek, the Deputy Minister.

Bill 7 - Legislative Assembly Members Removal and Disqualification Act - Consideration in Committee of the Whole
***************

-----
Hon. Paul Okalik (interpretation):
*************** 
qujannamiik iksijautaa.
-----
Thank you Mr. Chairman.
***************

-----
Using Inuit Qaujimajatuqangit I don't have any presentation planned.
*************** 
tamanna akunikallak piliriarisimalirattigut.
-----
We have been working on this for quite a long time.
*************** 
marruluataujut kamaginiarattigut tavvani piqujaksami.
-----
There are mainly two issues that we will be dealing with on this Bill.
*************** 
atausiq iniqtirigiarutaujuq maligarmik maligaliuqtiujut siqumittikpata.
-----
One is to discipline members if they break the law.
*************** 
tamanna pimmariujuq, ammalu maligarmik siqumittikpata pimmariujumik piiqtaukautigijunnaqtut.
-----
That is very important, and if they do commit a serious crime they can automatically be removed.
*************** 
tamanna piqasiutjijuq malillugu kanatami pirajannirmut maligarjuangujuq ammalu maligaujut nunavut gavamakkunginni.
-----
This includes crimes under the Criminal Code of Canada and Acts of the Territorial Government as well.
*************** 
tamakkua kamagijaujunnaqtut maligaliuqtiujunut piiqtaulutik uvvaluunnit nuqqangatitaukainnarlutik.
-----
These can be dealt with by the members by removal or suspension.
*************** 
tamanna sivulliugajaqtuq.
-----
That is the first one.
*************** 
aikpanga, tainna maligaliuqti nuqqalauqtillugu uvvaluunniit nuqqangatitaulauqtillugu, naliatuinnauppat taikkua niruagaksaukannirunnangittut kisiani sivuningagut kinguvviqtaulauqtillugit, tainna pinasukkannirunnaqsilirajaqtuq.
-----
The second item is, after that person resigns or is removed or suspended, whatever the case may be they cannot run again unless somebody else first replaces them.
*************** 
taakkua tavva aaqqigiarinasukpavut marruuk qaujimajuinnaugatta qanuittukkuulaurnittinnit amma tammaqtattinnit ilippakkatta asittaluunniit taimannalu aaqqigiarinasukpattugut.
-----
So we are trying to amend those two because we all know what we went through and we learn from mistakes of ourselves or other people and we try and make amendments.
*************** 
tamanna ajjiunngittummariujuq asilimaattinni pijunit.
-----
This is very different from anywhere else.
*************** 
nunavuumi attuiluaqtuq suuqaimma asinginni aulatauvvinni maligaliuqtiit anittijunnarniqarmata katujjiqatigiiqutiqaurmata niruaqtaunirmut qallunaani amma anitauguvit apiqsurunnarajannginnavit amma piqataujunnalititaulutit piqqusirnut maligaliurvimmut amma taimannak piliriaqaqpapput.
-----
It mainly affects Nunavut because in other jurisdictions the political parties have the authority to remove because they have party politics but within Nunavut we have consensus government. If you belonged to a particular party down south and if you are removed, you would have no right to ask questions and you would no longer be involved by the procedures of the Legislative Assembly and that is how they deal with it.
*************** 
pinasukkannirunniiqtittivammijut kinguniagut.
-----
They can also disqualify people to run again for their party.
*************** 
gavamatuqakkutigulli niruarniujuni pirajaktuminiqtaqalauqpuq amma suli piliriarijaulauqtuq iqqaqtuivinnut amma niruagaksaukkannirunnaililluni piqujaqjuamut.
-----
In this Federal election, there is one of them who committed a crime and was dealt with by the courts and he can no longer run for the Federal party.
*************** 
taimailiurivaktut tamakkuninnga suuqaimmali katujjiqatigiittunit niruaqtausimaniqannginatta, tamanna uvattinnilluaq attuijuq amma uutturasunniaqtutigu namminiq aulattinasulluta qanuiluurutiginiarlutikku taimannaumallu tamanna maligaksaq nuilaqilauqpuq.
-----
That is how they deal with them so because we do not have a party system, this mainly affects us and we are going to try and govern how we are going to deal with this and that is why this bill was introduced.
*************** 
uppirusullarippunga ilangit sivumuakkanniqujigajagiaq nalunaiqtani kisiani isumamiutarijariaqaqtavut suli maligaq maligiaqarattigu ammalu tamannauqatauvuq maligiaqaqtavut.
-----
I believe some would have us go further than what is proposed but we have to keep in mind that we still have to follow the Constitution. That is why we have to put restrictions if any one wanted to run after committing a crime.
*************** 
taimaimmat maligialinnit aaqqiisimavugut namunngaujjutaujunnaqtunit.
-----
So we have to make limitations or restrictions as to how far they can go.
***************

Mr. Speaker, as I mentioned in a statement I gave in the Legislative Assembly on October 31st, the Department of Public Works and Services has, in the last 18 months, been successful in reducing its reliance on the GNWT for asset management support services.
*************** 
tamanna saqqigunnaqsimajuq iqqanaijaqtitaarasuammaringnikkut ammalu ilinniaqtitsivallianikkut qaujimajitaksanik iqqanaijaqtinik.

Increasing technical expertise within the department not only reduces the costs associated with the agreement with the GNWT, but also ensures that decisions are made in Nunavut for Nunavummiut.

At this time, I would like to advise my colleagues that Nunavut has now taken its place with other Provincial and Territorial Governments in the regulation, development and implementation of various Mechanical and Electrical Safety Codes to ensure the safety of the citizens of Nunavut.

Because of this I think that we as Nunavummiut and as members should be giving more support to the young people, especially the elders who have the wisdom and healing knowledge and who know better lifestyles because of their past experience.

But the issue here is, in the Yukon Territory and I do not want to compare us to other Territories, but we do have problems with F.A.S., Fetal Alcohol Syndrome, and the other things that happen with abuse with this substance of alcohol. Would the minister responsible consider like they do in the Yukon, of putting in the two cents a drink tax on alcohol products in Nunavut, and take that money and directing it toward those programs.

***************

So Mr. Speaker, we are doing enhanced training right now for alcohol and drug counsellors. We are also using a registered certificate program from the Glasser Institute from Ontario and we just graduated several alcohol and drug counsellors from the program.

Right now Mr. Speaker, in the community of Clyde River we are doing a program for, again "choice vary" certification for drug and alcohol counsellors as well as community wellness counsellors from across Nunavut and that program is going on right now and will be continuing I believe until 2002 when the participants will be graduating from the program.

Would the minister be receptive in looking at providing support or the development by working with groups in the community to develop this type of a program, and outlining some of the things that would happen within a program and not just training people with the more broad range of training that is being offered.

The number of people who actually have a physical addiction to a substance whether it be cocaine, whether it be heroin, whether it be alcohol are very few in Nunavut.

-----
What the department of Health & Social Services had tried to do and is doing is over the past 16-18 months since the creation of Nunavut is to provide more professional development and training for our local wellness and mental health workers and our social services people at the community level to deliver those counselling programs.

Those programs are tailored to each individual person, a person who has a physical addiction Mr. Speaker, to heroin would have a different program than a person who had a problem with binge drinking as an example.

On the residency based treatment programs, what I talked about earlier, Mr. Speaker, in this House, is do we need a residency based treatment centre and if we do need a residency based treatment centre, what would be the best type of program to run at that residency based treatment centre to take someone away from being addicted to substances and substance abuse. So I hope that helps clarify that question Mr. Speaker.

-----
Because in 99 % of the cases Mr. Speaker, the underlying problems are a lot deeper than just the drinking problem, and you have to be able to deal with all of those, at the same time, when you are doing the program and the program is tailored to the individual, Mr. Speaker.

-----
That's why I said that if you are looking at a residency program, that's where you go to be weaned off of a physical addiction to a substance, in most cases Mr. Speaker, those type of referrals for an individual are clinically made by a doctor, by a nurse, by another professional.

Or Mr. Speaker, they are made by the individual who realizes he needs or she needs help. At the community level, Mr. Speaker, we're trying to provide the training and so on, to our community alcohol and drug counsellors, our social workers, our other staff, our professionals at the community level to be able to provide support, not only to the individuals but to the families.

Mr. Speaker, I believe when the member is talking about vermin in this case, the member is talking about a varmint, Mr. Speaker.
*************** 
katimajiujuq uqausiqaqpuq avinngamit, uqaqti.
-----
The varmint the member is talking about is a mouse.
***************

As the media has reported Mr. Speaker, there was a problem with mice at the boarding home in Winnipeg.
***************

The Ublivik centre it used to be called.
*************** 
katimajiujuq qaujimammat tanna tujurmiviajuq aulatauvammat kanturaktigut namminilinnut inunnik nunavumit.

As the member knows that centre is run by contract and owned by the Inuit of Nunavut.
***************

Owned by the members of this House through a joint venture company with Nunasi.

-----
I have spoken with one of the directors about the situation and my staff contacted Nunasi about the problem with the mice in the building.
***************

-----
As you know Mr. Speaker, the building is an old building.

There were about 80 patients there I believe at that time when I was there.

To my knowledge Mr. Speaker, the problem with the mice has been rectified.

I have not heard any complaints on that this week.

-----
Mr. Speaker, for any building that is operating in Winnipeg or any other civil jurisdiction they have to follow the safety codes, building codes, fire codes and so on, or they would not be open.
*************** 
taimaimmat kiujjutiga aippanut apiqqutingata makliin tunngavuq tanna illujuq malinniusatuinnaqtuq maliganginnut malinningippat matuingatitaugajangimmat.
-----
So I would base the answer on Mr. McLean's second question that indeed the centre would be following those codes or they would not be open.
*************** 
sannginiqarninga uanipaimi, nunaliujumut uanipaimmi, kajusitittisimagajangittut tujurmiviujumit kiuttiatassarivara katimajiup apiqqutinga.
-----
The jurisdiction of Winnipeg, the city of Winnipeg, would not allow them to function as a boarding home so I hope that helps answer the member's question.

Of course Mr. Speaker, following the Department of Health and Social Services regulations, guidelines, and other jurisdictions the building would have been inspected by the Department of Health in the city of Winnipeg or the government of Manitoba.

-----
Mr. Speaker, I agree with the member. Mr. Speaker, one of the things we have done with our Department of Health and Social Services is that we've actually set up a departmental committee who would look at how we can incorporate Inuit Qaujimajatuqangit and use the resources, the information and background our elders have.
*************** 
taimaimma uqaqti, piliriarijaq katimajinut pivalliajuq, saqipalliatuinnaqtut.
-----
Mr. Speaker, in no way are we belittling that information, that experience of our elders, by using that, by incorporating that into our business plans we moved forward, Mr. Speaker. As the member knows the Department of Elders and Youth, through CLEY have done some excellent work, continue to do excellent work, with our elders and so on.
***************

-----
So Mr. Speaker, the work that the member asks about is happening, is occurring, Mr. Speaker. The actual formal notification of the incorporating Inuit Qaujimajatuqangit or using elders' experiences and so on, is being done by having them sit in on the business plans, at the present time, as I explained earlier Mr. Speaker.
***************

Bill 4, an Act to Amend the Land Titles Act is intended to make the process of applying for and filing land lease documentation easier for Nunavummiut. It also removes a lot of the unnecessary duplication of documentation which is costly for the government.

One of the amendments was to identify or clarify that the registrar stamp for the time of receipt would be conclusive, as opposed to something that might be indicated on a fax cover sheet as time of registration. This is often important in our office.

One of the feedback was in regard to the office no longer automatically producing duplicate certificates of title and there was some ambivalence there. Many communities are going to be supportive of that because they do not have the desire to administer that paper.

The consultation material was not specifically sent out to people beyond the people that we know to use the office. The lawyers, the banks, and the community land administrators.
***************

-----
As a result of this technical nature we felt that those people are quite well aware of the frustrations of their client groups working with this office and they would be able to articulate those concerns and also they would be able to judge how what we are proposing would meet those needs. It is one of those bills that thankfully, even for many lawyers looking at it, the detail of it would be very technical unless there is someone that is directly involved in that area.
*************** 
qujannamiik.
-----
For the people that practice in that area or the people in the bank that handle those kinds of documents, they would understand how this little change will change the way the thing proceeds. But for the average homeowner what you know is that it takes too long to get your transaction through.
***************

We had that message loud and clear when we asked our experts and Gary Crow was one of them. We asked the Bar and also had advice from someone who has been involved in reforming the land administration system in Ontario in an innovative way.

-----
We asked them how do we try and improve some of those problems. We felt that we were aware of the concerns that people had.

But it should improve by way of getting rid of a lot of formalities. Only requiring facsimiles for example will cut down a lot of delays relating to snail mail.

There is the issue of getting rid of other formalities for signatures being witnessed for corporations and there is the issue of getting rid of ECTs which have been lost in a lot of cases and have delayed a lot of transactions in Nunavut. So I think generally it should improve.

Yes the provisions permit for facsimile copies, once they are received by the Registrar by way of fax, or by other means, that are legally possible, they will be stamped, and once they are stamped, they'll be deemed to have been received on that day, and at that time. So it's possible by way of fax to register documents.

For example if they faxed an application for a lease to go at midnight and my good friend Mr. McLean, also wants that lease and he's in there at the door waiting for them to open up, probably even before they even get there. When the door opens up, we have someone walking in saying I want to apply for that lease, and in the mean time you have a fax, that came in through the night saying I want that lease.
***************

What would determine, who is first in that case, that has potential of happening. I wonder how it would be taken care of, would it be if the person that goes to work that is there, goes to the fax machine first, or goes to the door first, would that determine who gets the lease.

In the current conditions the person submitting that surrender has to have written permission from the owner.

I know had occasion on a couple of times to argue with someone on why can you not just settle for a fax copy in the past. One of the excuses that was given as to why an original has to be there, is because some of the faxes use some kind of paper where the image fades away over time.

The replaced section was designed to deal with a procedural anomaly in our office where procedurally if a document was registered by a lease and then that lease was transferred to somebody else, then that person who owns the lease today if they registered a surrender of lease with our office, that person's interest as well as the original lease itself would be cancelled off of the title and the municipality would have a free and clear title again upon the surrender of that lease.

However, often because of the unique nature, the system whereby the Commissioner's Land has been brought into the Land Titles system, it often results in a lease being registered with what is called a Minister's Caveat.

-----
Section 59.2. The procedural anomaly is that when a surrender of lease is registered with our office, if the lease was on title by way of a caveat then the land titles procedures do not call for that caveat to come off the title and municipalities, their ownership would show that caveat.

taimannak tamanna siksian aaqqigiaqtaulilauqpuq imannaililiqtuni ministaup isumaqsuutinga atuqtuagaqtituuqtitaulirajaqpuq imannaimmat sakkutaujuq allataummat tigumiaqtaunirmittauq piirajarmimmat.
-----
So this section was revised to say that the Minister's Caveat would be treated like a lease in that when the surrender is filed it would be removed from title as well.
*************** 
piliriangulauqtuq tamatumuuna iliqqusitigut nunaliit tigummijanit sakkuiviuqullugit pijumaniulauqtunit.
-----
So it was really to deal with this procedural way of getting the municipalities title free of these prior interests.

atuqtuaganit sakkuinirmut siksian 112 maligarmi imaiqujivuq akiliksaqaqtuq angiqullugu atuqtuagaup sakkutauninganik.
-----
For a surrender of lease section 112 of the Act requires that a mortgagee consent to a surrender of lease.
*************** 
kiinaujakkuvit tigumiagaqaruni akiliksaqarniujumik amma atuqtuagamut tigumiarnirmik angiriaqaqtut atuqtuagamut tigumiarniq aturunniiqtitaulauqtinnagu.
-----
If a bank holds a mortgage and the leasehold title they have to consent before that leasehold title is cancelled.
*************** 
sapsiksian 2mut aaqqigiarut tamatumungattainnaq atuutiqaqpuq imannak atuqtuagaulauqtuq allattausimaniqalaurningani isumaqsuutitigut.
-----
The amendment to subsection 2 again relates to this situation where the prior lease is registered by way of caveat.
*************** 
imannailijuq sivuniani pijumaniqalauqtillugu allatausimajuminirmik isumaqsuutitigut, atuagatigut pijjutiksaqtaqanngilaq tainna inuup angiriaqarninganik sivuniani pijumaniqalaurninganut.
-----
What it is doing is saying that where there is a prior interest registered by way of caveat, there is no policy reason for having the consent of that person having had a prior interest.
*************** 
tamanna uqalimaagatiguungajuq.
-----
That comes out of the wording.
*************** 
pilirilluataqtuq makunani tunnirisimanniruma pijumanirnit asinnut.
-----
Essentially it deals with the situation where I have transferred my interest to somebody else.
*************** 
maannali angiriaqarnira pijariaqarunniiqpuq.
-----
There is no need now for my consent.
*************** 
taimaattainnaq ajjiunngittumik pilirimmijuq pijumanirilauqtara allattausimalaurninganut isumaqsuutitigut atuqtuagallattaagunngittumi.
-----
So it again it deals with this anomaly where my prior interest was registered by caveat instead of an actual lease.

One of the key objectives of decentralization is to provide employment and training opportunities at the community level. Of the 72 positions that were decentralized this year, very few existing employees elected to relocate.

-----
The Standing Committee made it very clear Mr. Chairman, very clear that they want assurances that there is no legal wording in the clauses of bill 9 that would give the government any authority to change the terms or content of the collective agreement which applies to the Nunavut based NTPC employees on December 31, 2001.
***************

The wording on Bill 9 does not and I repeat Mr. Chairman, does not give any authority to unilaterally alter the current collective agreement.

On the contrary Bill 9 just ensures the government and NPC can receive all of the Nunavut based NTPC employees and will honour all the existing rights, obligation and terms and conditions of their collective agreement.

I can say Mr. Chairman that the current collective agreement that is in place will continue till December 1st 2001. With that Mr. Chairperson, I don't know if our legal counsel would like to add maybe a legal opinion, on how successor rights within organizations for example, terms of employment, duration of employment and how they would be effected by the transfer.

Another important part of the bill Mr. Chairman, is that it will allow dependent surviving spouses who marry or remarry to retain their compensation benefits under the Act.

Furthermore, benefits will be retroactively reinstated to their surviving spouses who remarried after April 17, 1985.

Currently section 36 of the Workers' Compensation Act requires that workers compensation benefits paid to surviving spouses be terminated upon remarriage.

Finally, Mr. Chairman, this bill will expand the Worker's Compensation Board appeals tribunal in order to shorten the time for an appeal to be heard.

So long as the Workers' Compensation Board remains shared between Nunavut and the Northwest Territories, it appears inevitable that this Assembly will frequently find itself in a position where it is passing legislation simply to catch up to initiatives originating elsewhere.

No, what would happen is if an individual felt that they were not given the adequate compensation as a result of the decision of the Workers' Compensation Board, they have the right to appeal to the Appeals Tribunal to review that decision and the Appeals Tribunal can reverse or amend the decision of the Workers' Compensation Board.

I would say that the Workers' Compensation Board would turn them over and make the decisions I would think as expeditiously as possible.

But if they were to be injured and as a result of the injury there are payments deemed to be required to compensate that hunter or carver in that situation, then the Government of Nunavut would be assessed an amount that we would pay to the Workers' Compensation Board for that coverage.

Members may know there are two Nunavut members and five NWT members out of seven, representing 28%, so there's two out of seven, so that is roughly 28%. Our assessment revenue is roughly 26%, so that was the basis of how they determined that make up.

I'll ask the same question that I asked earlier to Minister Picco in relation to fact that this Bill is a result of changes made in the NWT, because we are a shared board.

Thank you Mr. Chairman. First of all, the reason for these amendments that we're proposing, it isn't so much because the NWT legislature has changed the WCB Act, it is a reflection of the request of the Workers' Compensation Board itself which is an independent board as members know.

A special warrant can be used in emergency situations.

It was a part of their arrangements, so once they came on stream we assumed the liabilities for the rent payments but at the same time we also received the revenue in our formula financing agreement payments to cover off those costs so basically it is an in and out charge.

I am just wondering as I asked on the other ones is why those leases weren't incorporated into the budget planning process so that they would already have been aware of it, or is it just something that we just all of a sudden needed extra. Why weren't they forecasted and put into the budget.

Primarily the reason Mr. Chairman, is that although there was general acknowledgement of the fact that there were leases, the amounts weren't finalized.

There were some outstanding leases and there was some uncertainty around it.

Public Works wanted to put some certainty around that before they put forward a request. So we didn't just want to plug in an arbitrary number and allowed them that leeway of putting together that information and then coming forward to the Financial Management Board for that financing.

It says a new loader for Pangnirtung, and I'm just wondering if that's a result of another one they had, that broke down or what is the rationale behind that.

Pangnirtung is particularly important in terms of snow clearing because the sewage lagoon is three kilometres away and there is not an opportunity to just go through any place if there happens to be a storm.

It had already been on their five year plan previously, but when the Government of Nunavut took over it got off. So the Mayor of Pangnirtung came to Community Government and Transportation along with his foreman and we looked at it and determined that yes, Pangnirtung should get that.

Mr. Chairman, this is, as members know, part of the whole Mitel telephone system that has been installed for the Government of Nunavut and what it is, each department has a certain portion of their budget for telephone services and that is all being sent over to Public Works to pay on behalf of all departments.

For the situation the member refers to, if there are additional needs for emergency situations that have been identified in any community and he cites Chesterfield Inlet as an example, then the appropriate department would put together the submission if they supported it and try to move forward either through a regular appropriation in the regular capital planning process or through a special warrant if they felt if it was an emergency situation, safety risk etc.

But last summer the Hamlet of Coral Harbour had to scrounge for any kind of funding they could put together to build the access road, at least a ramp and an access road to a very expensive bridge that we have been able to manage to make a reality in the last 10 years we have been working on it.

At that time on June 4, we knew that it was expected by the people of Nunavut and the negotiators at that time, just before April 1, 1999 when we were planning for the Nunavut government we all realized the people of Nunavut were expecting something very great for their home.

Mr. Speaker, it was my understanding in the past, one of the concerns raised by the DEAs was that they were provided with a document that was draft legislation without having any one there that was able to go through it and point out where some of the changes had been made, the differences between the old legislation and the new one.

But he indicated that when the revised draft is done up that it will be again sent for consultation to the communities. In light of the lack of input received from the communities and organizations and the members, if especially at the community level, if they are concerned that they just get a document without any explanation or anything.

The flight that travels to the Nattilik area sometimes goes back to Yellowknife. We have confirmed in Gjoa Haven, we hear, the Mayor of Gjoa Haven and myself, we often do radio shows to get some information from the public about different concerns, they often talk about using a different airline to bring in patients from Yellowknife or to travel on medical.

But it also speaks to the incredible job that the coaches, officials and volunteers do in organizing minor hockey in Rankin Inlet and providing an environment where the development of hockey skills are nurtured in conjunction with teamwork, cooperation and academic success.

-----
The challenges that the volunteers involved with Rankin Inlet Minor Hockey face are similar to most Nunavut organizations; lack of volunteers, lack of competition, limited numbers of coaches and officials, cost and most of all the limited length of the hockey season operating in a facility that uses natural ice.
*************** 
taimali tamakkua Hakirviumut qallunaat nunangannit sikunngualiurunnaqattarmata akuniunirsaq Hakirunnaqullugit.
-----
Virtually all arenas in southern Canada have the capacity to produce artificial ice in order to extend the playing season to a more practical and productive amount of time.

Hockey seasons for most organizations utilizing artificial ice normally commence in September and end in April.

-----
Today, in Nunavut communities that lie geographically south of the Arctic Circle, the global warming trend has dramatically reduced the hockey season in the facilities that utilize natural ice.
***************

-----
In most communities now, it is impossible to install natural ice before the end of November and the spring weather plays havoc with ice conditions as early as the beginning of April.

Thus, one of the first items of business that I have asked of the Board is to complete a strategic plan for the NBCC that will reflect the lending needs of Nunavummiut businesses today.

Good afternoon. Mr. Speaker as you may be aware the Department of Health & Social Services launched a tobacco reduction media campaign in December 2000.

-----
The campaign included a series of newspaper, radio and TV advertisements and a series of posters that graphically illustrates the effects of smoking. Mr. Speaker, since then the department has been working on a series of initiatives designed to pull together resources from around the country to overcome some of the devastating health effects of tobacco use among Nunavummiut.

Mr. Speaker, Nunavut residents expect change today.

Mr. Speaker, the people in Nunavut expect to use their language and culture because it is part of who they are.

-----
Mr. Speaker, they want the Nunavut ministers to start using Inuit Qaujimajatuqangit within their departments and we have been expecting to use Inuit Qaujimajatuqangit since way back in the 1960's but we are now in 2001.

Mr. Speaker, the government is saying we don't have any funding to deal with Inuit Qaujimajatuqangit, which is very true, Mr. Speaker. When the government says that we don't have any funding to me it means that we have to work towards using Inuit Qaujimajatuqangit any way we can and find funds to deal with the issues.

-----
But the reason I made reference to Simon Nattaq is because even though he fell through the ice, of course it is February and extremely cold, he was wearing Inuit clothing and using Inuit tools, and was able to survive this accident even when it took 53 hours before the search & rescue people came.

Because he was wearing traditional clothing, even though it was extremely cold, and being a traditional Inuk he knew the survival skills, in case such an accident should occur, and he used those Inuit techniques and Inuit Qaujimajatuqangit.

For those reasons we should promote the use of Inuit Qaujimajatuqangit as we have seen similar incidents where the person is able to survive because they have traditional skills and knowledge.

What I would like to talk about today is, since the creation of the Nunavut Government, there are still some residents of Nunavut, especially in the smaller communities, who have not yet participated in the land claims and who have not benefited from the land claims agreement.

It is very good for some of us, but as one of my colleagues said, the Inuit Qaujimajatuqangit process and integrating that into the government system is taking too long.
***************

The reason behind that is people who do not understand the Inuit language and the culture are the ones who are doing the implementation.

Mr. Speaker, I won't re-tell Simon's story here today, but I would like to point out that through this ordeal Simon told me that his faith in God helped sustain him in the more than minus thirty degree weather, being soaking wet and having no food or real heat for two and a half days.

One of the other benefits of that Mr. Speaker, is that Mr. Ian McCauley who is a professional ice maker, was able to touch up the ice here in the curling rink and give our municipal facility ice-maker some pointers on keeping the ice in good shape for those of us who curl.

Mr. Speaker, Manitoba Hydro along with the Northwest Territories Power Corporation did what was called a pre-feasibility study on the opportunities for transmission lines from Manitoba into the Keewatin region of Nunavut.

During the session in Rankin Inlet last February, I had an opportunity to meet with the Minister Responsible for Manitoba Hydro in Rankin to discuss the possibilities of moving the next step forward after the Government of Nunavut had an opportunity to review the pre-feasibility study.

The energy crisis that we are seeing in the North-western United States, California and in southern locations in Canada, presents itself as an opportunity to look at the opportunity for not only transmission lines into the Keewatin region, but also the possibility of other hydroelectric potential that have been designated and identified in the first pre-feasibility study.

The minister's visit was very helpful to the communities, and we were able to speak to him about programs delivered by these departments to replace the income lost because they lost their quota. Looking through the legislation that was instrumental in implementing this quota, the polar bears do have a migration pattern and during the off hunting season, some of the polar bears do become wild.

So we have talked about this and the three communities that the member mentioned we visited those communities and we asked questions of the hunters in regards to polar bears, the number of polar bears in their area and they said to us that they're declining in numbers because they use the Inuit knowledge and we asked the hunters before we released the report.

It's very hard to complain about the operators when the operators are in Yellowknife not in Winnipeg. Have Inuit made any complaints about the practices of the management who are in Winnipeg or the treatment of the patients by the management in Winnipeg.

Background
*************** 
unurniqsaungmata inuit nunavumi ammalu, nunaqaqqaaqtulimaatitut, inuit ajjiungittumik iliqqusiqarmata.
-----
The majority of Nunavut's population is Inuit and, like many aboriginal peoples, Inuit have a unique culture.
*************** 
inuit uqausingit ilaliutisimalluturmata inuusinginnut ammalu kinauninginnuk nalunaiqsijutaullutik ilitarnarutigingmajuk, nunalinginnullu inuusinginnullu.
-----
The language spoken by Inuit is an integral part of that culture and is an important affirmation of self, community and society.
*************** 
nunavumi nunataarutaulauqtut angirutiani, taanna nunavumut pigiaqtittijutaulauqsimangmat, taimainninganut asinginnut kamagijaujutaugialingnut nuittijutaungmat, uqausirnut pikkumisaarutaugialingnik, kinguvaanginnut qummiuqsijutaugialingnik ammalu sapujjisimajutaullutik inuit inuusinginnik iliqqusinginnilu.
-----
The Nunavut Land Claims Agreement, which resulted in the creation of the territory of Nunavut, leads to many underlying commitments to promote, preserve and protect Inuit society and culture.
*************** 
ilaak nunavut gavamatia pigialirataaqtillugu ammalu amisunik aksururnaqtunik nuittijutauvallianiaqtuq nalunangikkaluaqtillugit, kisianili taimanganit turaarasuaqtavut pivalliattianginnarmata inuqutittinnik kiggaqtuttiaqtumik gavamaqarasuarniqput iliqqusirijaujut ajjiunginninginnut nunagijaujulluni nalunarunniiqpalliangmata.
-----
Although the Government of Nunavut is new and many challenges lie ahead, there is steady progress towards reaching the goal of providing representative government for this culturally unique jurisdiction.
*************** 
maligaq taanna atuagarijaujullu qimirujauvalliatillugit pivalliatitauvalliatillugilluunniit turaarasuaqtavut upakpallianginnarattigu nunavumiunut aaqiksuqtausimajunik atuliqtittivallianginnaratta, nunavumiut uqausirmigut isumaalugijutigijangit pijunnautigijangillu taimanganit iqqagijauttianginnariaqarmata.
-----
As legislation and policy is reviewed or developed with the goal of achieving made-in-Nunavut solutions, Nunavut's language issues and rights must always be taken into consideration.
*************** 
taimanganillu aksuruutaunginnarmata gavamatikkunnut tilisijutausimajut qingaurmi pigiaqtitaunikuujut aksuruutigiinnarattigu inuktitut uqausiq atuliqtitauvalliaqullugit gavamatikkut pilirivinginni titiraqsimangmat uqausiulimmarigumaarmat 2020-uliqpat.
-----
Efforts in this area will progressively meet the Government's Bathurst Mandate commitment to have Inuktitut as the working language of government by the year 2020.
*************** 
nunavumi ilitarijausimajut uqausiit maliga tigunikugigattigu nunasiap gavamanganit aviliqtillugu.
-----
Nunavut's Official Languages Act was inherited from the Northwest Territories upon division.
***************

-----
This Act, modeled on the federal Act, was first passed in the NWT's Legislative Assembly in 1984 with a dual purpose:
*************** 
nalimuttumik maligatigut ilitarijausimaniqaqullugit qallunaatitut uiviititullu uqausiit kanataup gavamaqutinginni tamaita pilirivinginni ammalu kamajutini inuqutinginnik;
-----
to guarantee equal status for the use of English and French in public access to government programs and services;
*************** 
ammalu maligatigut ilitarijauqullugit nunaqaqqaaqtut uqausingit uqausirijaujujut suli nunasiaq avilaungitillugu suli.
-----
and also to formally recognize the aboriginal languages used across what was the entire Northwest Territories.
*************** 
tamaita uqausiit ukuangujujut sipuvuaijan, kurii, taakrip, guisin, siliivi ammalu inuktitut (ilautillugit, maligani, inuinnaqtut ammalu inuvialuktun). 1990-mi, maligaq taanna aaqigiaqtaulauqtuq maligatigut ilitarijausimaliqullugittauq taakkua nunaqaqqaaqtut uqausingit sapujjisimajutiliuqtauqullugit pikkumisaaqtauqullugillu nunaqaqqaaqtut iliqqusingit nunasiami.
-----
Those languages are Chipewyan, Cree, Dogrib, Gwich'in, Slavey and Inuktitut (which includes, according to the Act, Inuinnaqtun and Inuvialuktun). In 1990, the Act was amended to give official status to these aboriginal languages as a means of preserving and promoting the aboriginal cultures of the Territories.
*************** 
tungallirmi asijjiqtaulaurmijuq taannasainnaq maligaq iniliuqtauqullugu uqausilirijikkut kamisina.

Another amendment was to create the position of Languages Commissioner.
*************** 
taisumani nunavut gavamangata tigulilauqsimaja nunasiamiut maliganga, taanna ilaliutisimatillugu uqausilirijikkut kamisinataarunnaqsilaurmata nunavumiunuungajumik.

When Nunavut inherited the NWT legislation, this included the ability to appoint a Languages Commissioner for Nunavut.

The selection of the Languages Commissioner was undertaken by the Standing Committee Ajauqtiit as part of that Committee's mandate to recommend appointments to positions that are made, by statutory authority, by the Legislative Assembly.

In keeping with the Government of Nunavut's commitment to accountability, the selection of the Languages Commissioner was an open, competitive and transparent process.

-----
The Languages Commissioner's opening message provides some important views on the uniqueness of Nunavut's situation and needs, on the various organizational roles that relate to language issues, and emphasizes the urgency of addressing these issues.
*************** 
unikkaaliangita kingullinginni, taijaujut "uqausiqarniq ajjigiimik", piliriaqarsimalluni uqausirnik pingasunik:
-----
The second section of the Report, entitled, "Talking the Same Language", addresses three language-specific issues:
*************** 
qanuilingalirmangaat inuinnaqtut uqausinga;
-----
the status of Inuinnaqtun;
*************** 
ajjiginngitanganik inuktitut titirausinginnik titirausiqarninginnik;
-----
different systems used to write Inuktitut;
*************** 
amma ajjigiiliqtitauningit inuktitut titirausiq.
-----
and the standardization of Inuktitut writing systems.
*************** 
atuni isumaalugutaujut unuqtunik pijjutiqalauqtut amma ajjigiingittunik aktuisisimaniqaq&utik.
-----
Each of these issues is multi-faceted and inter-related and consideration of them raises further issues.
*************** 
katimajiralaanguqataujut unuqtunik apiqqutiksaqalauqtut pillugit uqausilirinirmut unikkaausingit.
-----
Committee members had a number of questions regarding the conclusions drawn by the Languages Commissioner in this section.
*************** 
katimaqatautillugu uqausilirinirmut kamisanaujuq nalunarunniilauqtuq tukiliuqtauningit "uqausit", "uqausiqatigiinginnirlu" amma tukisimaqatigiingniq ajjigiiqattanginninginnik amma taimailingatillugu iluunnanginnut angiqtaulauqtuq taimainniraqtaulluni.
-----
During discussions with the Languages Commissioner it was apparent that interpretations of 'language', 'dialect' and 'mutually intelligible' varied considerably and that the related conclusions were far from being unanimously accepted.
*************** 
pilluarniqsat isumaalugutaujut:
-----
Key Issue:
*************** 
tamainnuunganiqsauliqullugu inuktitut uqausiit
-----
Standardization of Inuktitut
*************** 
ilangat aksururnaqniqpaulauqtuq kinatuinnanut timiujunulluunniit uqausiliriniq nunavumi angiqtauttiaqullugu atuqtaujunnarluni tukinga "inuktitut".
-----
One of the primary challenges facing any individual or organization addressing language issues in Nunavut is to establish acceptable and workable definitions of "Inuktitut".
*************** 
ilangat maligaliuqtiuqataujuq isumaqalauqtuq imanna, "inuktitut" uqausiungmat inungnut amma taimainninganut inuit piqqusinginnut nuijutaulluni iliqqusituqanginnullu.
-----
From one Member's perspective, "Inuktitut" is the language spoken by an Inuk and, as such, is an affirmation of self and one's heritage.
*************** 
asingillu isumalauqtut "inuktitut" uqausiq kinakkunnulimaaq atuqtaujariaqarninganik ilagiinut nunalingmiutaujunullu, amma uqausiqatigiiliqpalliatillugit, uqausiqtaujut tukisiqatigiigutauvallialirunnarmata ajjigiinginnirijangit amma taigusirijangit.
-----
From another's perspective, "Inuktitut" is the language shared by a group of individuals, such as a family or a community, and is an affirmation of social ties and a source of pride.
*************** 
asuilaak taima unuqsivallialiqtillugit atausirmi tukisiumaqattautiniqsaujut, katipalliajutausuuq uqausiqatigiiktunut avikpalliajutaulirmata uqausiqatigiingittunut, taisiqatigiingittunut asinginnullu ajjigiinginninginnut uqausiit nutaallu taigusiaqtaarijaujut.
-----
As the number of individuals sharing the common language grows, the unifying features of the shared language give way to the differences in wording, pronunciation or other features which define dialects or, eventually, distinct languages.
*************** 
inuinnaqtut inuvialuktullu titirausiqaqtut inuit immikkuurutaungmingmata ajjiunginninginnut inuit nunaliuqatigiiviujuni ualinirmiuni.
-----
Inuinnaqtun and Inuvialuktun, for example, unify specific groups of Inuit and are used predominantly in certain communities and areas.
*************** 
katimajiralaakkut isumajut nunavumi uqausiit ajjigiinginningillu nalimuliqtitaugunnangimmata atausinguqtitaulutik tamainnut tukisiajaujumik.
-----
The Committee believes that Nunavut's languages and dialects cannot not be standardized into one universal form.
***************

-----
The success of program and service delivery, the dissemination of public information and the process of public consultation in Nunavut will be determined by the ability to communicate in both written and spoken contexts across the Territory.
*************** 
kajusittiaqullugu tamanna ujjirsuttiarlutik tunijauttiarsimalutiklu kiinaujanik pijariaqaqtut, iqqanaijaqtiqattiarlutiklu amma allavingmut aulajjutiqattiarlutik suurlu tukiliurijiujunik aturunnarniarmata, tukiliuqtaujunnarsilutik amma titiraqtaujunnarsilutik.
-----
Ensuring this success will require careful and effective allocations of financial, human and administrative resources for activities such as translation, interpretation, and publication.
*************** 
ilaak tamatumani kajusitittinasuaq&uta nunavulimaami tusaumatittijutaujunnaqtumik pijarituninganik uqausirnirlu ajuqsanginninginni ajjigiingittuutiit uqausiit atuqtainnarigiaqalirattigu iqqagittiaqtainnarilugit.
-----
While meeting the territory-wide communication needs, the richness and diversity of dialects must always be respected.
*************** 
qanuilingalirningat inuinnaqtukkut uqausingat kiujaunasuattiariaqaqtuq kisulimaattiangagut.
-----
The status of Innuinaqtun in Nunavut will need to be addressed in depth.
***************

-----
Establishing standard definitions of Nunavut's official languages will likely be a critical issue when considering legislated language services such as those specified in the Official Languages Act or the Education Act, as well as in establishing policies relating to language use.
***************

In the meantime, Committee members encourage the Languages Commissioner to continue to take a pro-active role in addressing Nunavut's language issues.
***************

The Languages Commissioner's website is also a significant achievement as it provides an important source of information to the public.

-----
The Committee feels that greater effort could be made in promoting and publicizing the website as it will be an important avenue for members of the public to inform themselves of their language rights as well as to submit complaints or enquiries should they feel that their rights are not being protected.

The Languages Commissioner's role puts her in a position to measure the Government's success in meeting expectations that have been raised through the Land Claims Agreement, through the Nunavut Act and by the Government of Nunavut to preserve, protect and promote the language of Inuit.

Committee members were disappointed that there was not more specific discussion on the Act nor any specific views on possible amendments to the Act. A brief discussion of the upcoming ten-year review of the Official Languages Act included some reference to the non-Inuit aboriginal languages protected under the current Act but did not argue either for or against removing them from the Act.

While Committee members understand that the Commissioner's role is established through territorial legislation and includes a responsibility for protecting language rights under federal legislation, they also felt strongly that the Nunavut Land Claims Agreement should have been addressed in the Report.

Unfortunately, the Government of Nunavut did not inherit the GNWT's language policy nor did it develop one of its own. Instead, GN departments and agencies have been left on their own to implement the Official Languages Act.

-----
The fact that many departments believe language services to be CLEY's exclusive responsibility underlines the urgent need for defined roles and responsibilities. The Committee also believes that a government-wide language policy is necessary to ensure that the Official Languages Act is implemented accordingly.

The Committee feels that such a policy will be important to protect and promote the use of Inuktitut, Inuinnaqtun, French and English languages. The review of the Official Languages Act will raise a broad spectrum of issues and the Committee feels that a government-wide language policy reflecting the spirit and intent of the newly amended Act will be a product of the review process.

Given that the Official Languages Act cannot be amended without the approval of the Parliament of Canada, we recommend that representatives of the Legislative Assembly make a formal presentation to federal parliamentarians of any changes they propose to the Act. Elaboration:

-----
The Committee feels that an amended Official Languages Act should be presented to the Parliament of Canada only in the event that the amendments "have the effect of diminishing rights or services provided for in that [Official Languages Act] ordinance" (s.38, Nunavut Act).

As it is likely that the Legislative Assembly of the Northwest Territories will also propose changes to the Act, we recommend that Nunavut and the NWT attempt to present their proposed changes to Parliament at the same time.

As I outlined in the speech, either we reduce the programs that we are supplying to our constituents as a whole, dramatically cut them back, or else we operate with a larger accumulated deficit.

When we get into that type of situation and if you are not able to deliver your basic programs and services then the question about the political stability, the ability to deliver programs and services as a government to our constituents would come into question.

-----
I guess, given that I have indicated that Minister Martin has agreed to a review with our officials of the fiscal capacity of the Government of Nunavut, if it is found that our gross expenditure base may be severely under funded then there may be an opportunity during the course of a renewal to make some adjustments within the context of the current agreement that will be signed off.

Mr. Speaker I believe another member in this House and I do not want to say the wrong name of the member but I know one of the members was talking earlier this session, I believe about increased federal funding and in the fact that if we get more funding in one area they would claw it back from another area.

The standing committee is pleased that this increase, along with the re-profiling of nearly 800 thousand dollars within the department, demonstrates the department's response to the standing committee recommendations to promote Inuit leadership in the education system by significantly increasing funding under Teacher's Professional Development.

The Committee has strongly recommended in the past that the department provide support for the establishment of a Nunavut District Education Authority Association and this does appear to have been addressed in the 2001-2002 business plan, even though funding has been allocated for training and support for District Education Authorities.

-----
Within the Department of Education, I think all the members, when we were first running for our positions, spoke strongly about encouraging education, supporting education and I know in my community, I don't want to put down the education system because my children are also being educated in the school in my community, but I'll use my daughter as an example.

When I started asking her questions about the English classes, I remembered in the 1960's, we went to school and we were taught reading skills and we used to read different stories, Jack and Jill stories.

What she told me was that students were not given exams and I know when you are in grade 9 there is a level of education that you need to complete and at the grade 9 level you should be able to read very well.

Also, when I ran for my position as a member the Inuit, our culture is quite strong and we practice traditional skills or hunting skills and there are some students that might drop out before they are complete grade 12.

There are students in our communities that have not completed grade 12 that might be age 16, 17 that are walking around in the communities and receiving welfare but they are not taught traditional skills or they do not have enough knowledge about traditional skills.

That concerns me because when we were 12, 13, we would know all that, we were taught at a really early age about hunting and surviving out on the land and I think it is important that our young people are taught those skills.

We are encouraging Inuit Qaujimajatuqangit to be used in the Departments and I remember DEA Chairpersons met here in Iqaluit just recently and on the CBC news we heard education is still lacking funds.

An Inuk doesn't need a certificate to show that he is knowledgeable in that field and we are the ones that need to collect that information before the elders pass on, we need to collect that information.

As Inuit we need to stand together but also work together with non-aboriginal people and I know there are a lot of problems in the north that we need to deal with, there's alcohol problems and I know that an Inuk is able to survive out on the land without a lot of equipment that is readily available now.

Just in general, one thing I'd like to acknowledge is the fact that the minister in his opening comments states the journey of life long learning is one of the keys to success in Nunavut.

And, also in the Minister of Finance's budget address yesterday where he talks about how education is the key to a better future for the people of Nunavut, and equipping our citizens with the skills and knowledge at all stages in their lives is crucial to our territory's success.

I view it as an investment in our future and it has a potential of coming back and reaping the rewards of that investment in the future.

That is how we have to look at it.

I think you know one of the things that we need to look at is trying to find a way to integrate the school type system into a daycare system.

Another thing Mr. Chairman that is going to be vital for the success of our students in Nunavut is taking a look at the pupil-teacher ratios.
***************

-----
I think it is crucial that it be lowered.
***************

Right now I know, maybe one of the things that you may want look at is incorporating a ratio into the Act as the GNWT did.
***************

I believe they put a PTR of 17 right into their legislation. So that it's law that it has to be.
*************** 
ilisiqquulauqsimangmata angajuqqaat ilisaijiillu amisuuninginni maliktittillutik 17-ngutitaullutik maligarmut.

That would force the government to recognize that is the area or number that is most suitable to provide the best quality or possible learning environment for our young people to learn in the classrooms.
***************

Another key area that I am very happy to see addressed in this years' budget is the infrastructure.

-----
I know that is something that has been neglected all over Nunavut and when I say all over Nunavut not just the small communities. I think if we were happy with the way things were going before as far as programs and services and the infrastructure we would still be part of the Northwest Territories.
*************** 
amma, pimmariummijuq alianaigillugulu uqausiulaurninga tamatumani arraaguujumit kiinaujaliriniujumit.
-----
I think in a lot of cases the East, now Nunavut was neglected and I think maybe even leading up to division, some things were left off with the intention that we'll let the Government of Nunavut worry about that after division and it won't effect us.
*************** 
nunaliit aulajunnautingit.
-----
So those infrastructure needs are out there. We have some very aging facilities.
*************** 
qaujimallunga taanna iksinnakugijauninganit nunavuulimaamit amma uqaqtunga nunavuulimaamit taikkuatuungittut nunaliit mikinniqsaujut.

We have facilities that are old, that are makeshift. I have seen classrooms like old condemned community halls fixed up and classrooms put in them.

-----
You see some communities where they have had to erect of couple of walls in a hallway to put a classroom in there and even here in the brand new school here in Iqaluit we have a classroom being used as a stage.
*************** 
ilangit piiqtitaunginnalaurmata pijaarijaullutik nunavuup gavamakkungit piliriaqaqtitaungaaqtutik avingniujumit uvattinnullu aktuiniqajjaanani.

So that gives you an idea of the importance of infrastructure and you know it is a requirement in every single community in Nunavut.
*************** 
nunaliit aulajunnautinginnut pijaujarialiit ilisimainnaqtutik. pituqaruqpalliatuinnaqtutiglu igluqutivut.
-----
I think it is important that be looked at and I think that especially not only the existing stuff but I think we have to plan and look forward to our needs as we go into the future.
*************** 
illuqutiqaqpugut pituqaujunik, inigijautuinnaqtunik.
-----
That we do not build something that is already too small.

-----
I will use an example again here of the Iqaluit school that was built to house three grades and because of the size it only has two right now and one of those is where they even have a class on the stage.
*************** 
tamanna nalunaiqsijjutivuq pimmariuninganit illuliurniup qaujimavutillu pitaqariaqarningani nunalilimaanit nunavummi. pimmariusugivara tamanna takugiaqtauppat pitaqariiqtuinnaunngittunullu kisiani parnautiliuriaqaqtugivunga niriunniqaqtiarlutalu pitaqariaqaqujaqtinnut sivunistaqtinnuuqpalliatilluta sanattailiqulluta mikiluaqtautigijunik ilisavinnit.
-----
So there is an example of you know the lacking infrastructure that we have and that we need to look at and I think the forced growth issues need to be looked at for all communities as well as it relates to infrastructure.
***************

-----
I think another area that needs to be taken into consideration and it has been an issue that I have raised over the last year is the fact of looking at how our schools are funded.
*************** 
tamajja uuttuutigijassaq inissaqanngiluarnirmut ilinniarvinnit takugiariaqaqtutigulu amma piruqpalliatitauninganut nunait pijjutiqarivuq takugiaqtaugialiit nunalinni attuaniqaqtutillu illuliuriaqarnirnik ilisaviujunik.
-----
I know that prior to division, the GNWT went into deficit reduction mode and they changed the formula on how our schools were funded to save money.
***************

-----
So they cut costs and the result of that is it cut teachers and raised the PTR, it cut programs out of schools you know that there are not too many schools right now that have any vocational type activities that they are funded for within their programs.

I think that some inroads can be made to maybe providing a better quality program in both of those languages and Mr. Chairman you know some of these comments that I am making are not in any way, shape or form a negative reflection on the staff and the teachers that are in the schools right now. Those people that are out there, I tip my hat to them.

A lot of individuals out there are falling through the cracks by there not being any type of pre-trades or vocational type programs being offered in the schools and I think if, hopefully some of the funding and one of my questions written down here is allocated to our trades and that is looking at integrating these types of programs, or looking into the development of these types of programs into the secondary school systems.

I think by being open to looking at new ways of doing things, innovative ways, communicating with the people out there, the teachers that are the ones right in the front lines and how we can find ways to improve and enhance the program and services being offered out there by the department would be the direction that we need to go in.

-----
But being involved in this government and the way that the Education Act seems to be coming or the lack of it, I think it is going to be an education act that is made in Nunavut and will probably reflect the needs of this territory and not the one of the GNWT with different ethnic groups over there.

I am finding that in my community when kids come out of grade 6 and they go into grade 7 there does not seem to be a lot of consultation given to the parents and parents still have in Nunavut, parents still have in a lot of the communities a reluctance to go in to talk to teachers and that is no fault of the teachers, they have this reluctance to go in to talk to teachers about where there kids are going in the system.

-----
I think we have to put more emphasis as probably parents and as leaders to encourage parents to go into the schools and find out what programs their kids are going to be taking whether it is a general program, general education program or an academic program because I do not think a lot of parents know. I think the teachers that we are hiring in the secondary program today are qualified to teach both general education and academics.

-----
I had to make a concerted effort to find out what my own child was taking in school and what program they were taking because I think a lot of people in our communities think that once a student graduates from grade 12 they are automatically eligible for entrance into a university program and I do not think that is the case.

With more communities having grade 12 and more younger people getting into DEAs and understanding what is being taught in schools and maybe you are right we will see more graduates from our schools. I am glad to see that the Government of Nunavut has dedicated 40% of its budget overall to education because we say that the start to life is a good education.

Mr. Chairman, I realize that the projects that are in this year's and it also shows future years and in the back there are other projects that are listed in there and the minister indicated that they are following priorized projects.

There are several ways that we come up with determining a plan.
*************** 
sivulliqpaamit maannaujuq aturatta pirjuanut parnagutiujumit qarisaujaqtigut sanalauqsimajavut taimaak atuqtuksautaulluni.
-----
One is we are currently using a capital database program that we had created for that purpose.
*************** 
taannali takunnarutigisuurivavut pingasuiliqqangajunit pillugit ilinniarviit.
-----
What that does is it looks at three areas in terms of schools.
*************** 
atausiq atuliqtittinirmut.
-----
One is utilization.
*************** 
nasaijjutausuunguvuq qassiuninginnit ilinniaqtiit ilinniarvingmiimmangaata amma qaujisarutausuungulluni avsiujunnarmangaata ilinniarvingmiittunnaqtut.
-----
It measures the number of students in the schools and compares it with the capacity that the school was designed to hold.
*************** 
qassiuningit ilinniaqtiit ilinniarvingmiittunnaqtut ilinniarviup sanajausimaninga maliktugu.

The number of students the school was designed to hold.
*************** 
taanna qarisaujarmut atuqattaqtavut qaujijjutigiqattarivavut maannaujukkut qanuilinganirijanginnit ilinniarviup, sanajausimaningata qanuilinganirijangannik.
-----
The database also looks at the current status of the facility in terms of its condition, its building condition.
*************** 
taakkuali qaujisuurivavut suraksimajulirijikkunnit.
-----
We gather that information from the Department of Public Works, primarily.
*************** 
pingajuat taanna takunnasuurivavut ilinniaqtittijjutaujut.
-----
The third area that we look at is program.
***************

-----
So we look at in terms of what the school was designed to allow in terms of program and then because of perhaps late additions whether there are changes that are required so if the school added high school grades we would look at standards and criteria and include that as part of our consideration.
***************

-----
We also communicate with each of the three regional executive directors of school operations and request their input as far as which schools, in priority, they feel need attention.

-----
We also through that attempt to communicate with each of the district education authorities to be sure that their input is included and we also communicate with Nunavut Arctic College to see where their interests lie, both in terms of separate facilities and any interest in the schools as far as partnerships.

Mr. Chairman I am just wondering, in the database that is mentioned there that Mr. Levy talked about, one of the areas looks at utilization and compares design capacity to the numbers that are there.
***************

Is there any place within that database or in any other area where the issue of forced growth is incorporated into this formula.

-----
I already cited a couple of examples here in Iqaluit where, and we all know how fast the community is growing and the other school that was just built a couple of years ago that cannot even handle what it was designed for to begin with, already.
*************** 
qaujijumatuinnaqtunga tavvani parnaktausimajunit nalunaiqsisimajuqarmangaat qanuittullaringnit parnaktausimajuqarmangaat.

So I am just wondering if there is anywhere in that formula that could explain where exactly those types of issues are factored in.

So, we have take enrolment forecasts, we can enter those into the database and it allows us to look at what the school should be in terms of 5 years down the road.

But, the first thing that would indicate that we need that kind of attention is the current enrolments, and then where there are ones where it seems to be high capacity we can project that forward to with the database.

-----
On October 31, 1999, in response to a unanimous request from the Nunavut caucus of the Northwest Territories Association of Municipalities, which was also supported by the NTI board, Nunavut changed from three active time zones to a single time zone.
***************

The single time zone has been controversial since its inception.
***************

An idea that seemed attractive to many when considered in the abstract had some legitimate impacts on everyday lives of Nunavummiut.

When the refined version turned out to be controversial, modifications were permitted for two communities and a commitment was made to consult further with a view to making a decision once and for all.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. In answer to Mr. Tootoo's question Mr. Chairman, the greater majority of the allocation of the one time surplus monies came from recommendations of a week long business planning session that was held in Arviat in August of 2000.

And at the end of the session, we had an excellent week long session in Arviat, where we had redefined the goals and objectives and satisfied ourselves as a department that they were consistent to the Bathurst Mandate.
***************

Then at a later date after the business planning process, we had a small group within the department, mostly from the school services side, our managers who work in communities and run the schools, and said what would be the priority in schools and school programs.
***************

-----
Then we took that list and the recommendations and why to the minister for approval and once the Education Minister had endorsed that, those items were submitted to the Financial Management Board and they were adopted there, subject to the finalization of all the audits because of course none of these could be spent until we knew the exact amount.

But standards and criteria in regards to safety concerns and safety standards in buildings, they change every year and every year they get harder, or they don't get harder, they get better, supposedly.

-----
So, it's raised everybody's awareness of, if a fire starts in one of our buildings it's very difficult to put it out because water supply is a challenge in most of our communities and climate is a major challenge in most of the year in communities, and also because of the degree of readiness of the fire services in our territory.

If I could take the question outside of Nunavut and put it somewhere else in Canada the same questions that the Department of Education or Department of Public Works or Fire Marshals would ask would be the same questions we ask here.

Mr. Chairman, is he saying that then they have an inventory basically of all facilities whether they do or the Department of Public Works does and monitors things and as soon as something hits the, you know, they projected the last 20 year's uses up to that 20 years and after that 20 years if something needs to be replaced that's what determines where these funds are used. Is that what he is indicating.

Mr. Chairman, given the fact that over the years and it's been clearly identified, a lot of the infrastructure that we have in the education system throughout Nunavut, may not be fair to say it is decaying, a lot of it is very old and reaching the end of it's useful life and whenever that happens you see a lot more problems or emergencies that happen as a result of that.

For example, one of the positions that I am quite excited about is the position of a specialist in Inuit Qaujimajatuqangit, that will be based in Kugluktuk and that will be a hire from there, that would be helping us with the Inuit Qaujimajatuqangit within the Department of Health & Social Services.

This is on the same subject, when he is going to initiate this meeting and we all show up and I'm sure the minister is going to lead this contingent, that he would also bring up the prospect of alternate sources of energy, hydro, wind, solar and stuff like that and discuss that with his counterpart.

The formula as the minister has mentioned is complicated.
***************

-----
It has a combination of factors in it.
*************** 
ilangit tamakkua amisuuningit ilinniaqtiujut mikiniqpaanik guriit 12-mut nunalingni.

One of them is the number of kindergarten to grade 12 students in the community.

Another is the average school size, meaning there's, depending on the numbers, it is designated as a small or a medium or a large school.
*************** 
taimattauq nunalingni ungasinninga isumagijaujariaqarmimuq ilinniarvingmit taununga ungasinninginnut angirrarijaujut ammalu ministaujuq uqaqqaummat malimmata ilinniaqtimut kiinaujatigut.
-----
There's also a community distance factor which means the distance between the school and what's considered the outskirts of town and, as the minister also mentioned, there's a per dollar student figure.
*************** 
kisiani tamakkua katitaullutik isumagijauvangmata ammalu maliktugit katisimaningit tamakkua tisamaujut isumagijaujariaqaqtut, ikajuqtautuinnariaqaqtusi ikajuqtaunngituinnariaqaqtusi paasitanirmut.
-----
But all of those are measured together and depending on the combination of those four factors, you may or may not get a contribution for busing.
*************** 
uuktutigilugu, apirijauqqaummigama.
-----
For example, I was asked for an example.

-----
A small community like Grise Fiord, because of the small size that would cancel out continuing with the formula and adding up the number of students and using that per dollar figure.
***************

So, all of those factors together are considered and that is what is then contributed to the region for re-distribution for busing.

Mr. Chairman, I guess I'm wondering, I don't know if you can do it just in one area but overall, you know, the rationale behind the dissolution of the Boards was to be able to create some savings for the department, you know and being able to use that money to put into the classrooms where it's needed.

Final question, Mr. Havioyak briefly kind of touched on it, it was under the compensation and benefits, is that figure that's there, the budgeted amount, based on that being 100% staffed.

Mr. Chairman I realize that also one of the other goals of the dissolution of the boards was to be able to have the ability to transfer more authority, responsibility, to the community to the local DEAs to assist more directly with the department in being able to run the schools in their communities.

-----
Mr. Speaker, the Department of Health and Social Services, as I said in this House, is trying to build a local capacity at the community level so that when people have concerns with alcohol and drug treatment, and we're talking about Mr. Speaker, people who have an addiction, people who have a need for that type of treatment.

But what we've tried to do, since then Mr. Speaker as I've said before, is to provide professional training for the individual at the community level so that the person doesn't have to be taken out of the community, to bring them to Iqaluit or other places. That we would actually help them at the home community.

Mr. Speaker, what we've seen in addictions counselling over the past several years now, not just in Nunavut or northern Canada but across Canada and indeed North America has been a change in the way addictions have been dealt with.

So for example, Mr. Speaker, most addiction centres were for someone who had chronic alcoholism, if they were a heroin addict and they needed a fix, they would go to a treatment centre.

-----
So the philosophy, or the way to look at it is through reality therapy and reality based therapy approaches, which we've been successful in including in our program here in Nunavut, is that if someone has an addiction, a physical addiction, and it has been clinically diagnosed, we provide that treatment for them.

But we have found, going back to the member's question, we have found, is that if you take Ed Picco out of the community and treat him, then when Ed Picco, six weeks later, goes back to the community, if you haven't dealt with that problem at the community level, or the family level, that caused me to drink, for example, then you're not doing a very good job.

What I can say Mr. Speaker, because it has come up in this House before, when you look at addictions and counselling, for example I can give you stats for last year, we had 16 people, 16 adults in Nunavut and three youths who were clinically diagnosed, medically diagnosed with an addiction where they needed a treatment program.

When you go to treatment programs Mr. Speaker, that's to help wean you off an addiction, a physical addiction whether it be solvent, whether it be chemical or in our case almost 80% are alcohol related addictions, where you go to a dry out centre.

Mr. Speaker, again what has happened across Canada with addictions, is that, if I had a treatment centre tomorrow, in Apex and reopened, would that make it better for people who had an addiction problem.

Mr. Speaker, for example we have found that a lot of people who are binge drinkers, or using drugs who are using alcohol have suffered from childhood sexual abuse, physical violence and so on and curing them of the addiction has not cured them of the problems that they had in the past.

-----
Mr. Speaker, because of the limitations of the powers that the Office of the Interim Commissioner had when he undertook to sign off the Formula Financing Agreement, back in I believe it was the fall of 1998, that office was only allowed to enter into contractual obligations for two years.

So it is my understanding that it was understood it was a five-year agreement, but because of the legal ramifications of the Office of the Interim Commissioner, there was a two-year agreement with a three-year extension.

I would guess that amount would show just from one increase that was implemented in November till the end of this year, and that the next column that shows 2001/2002 would be for the next full fiscal year.

With that in mind Mr. Speaker, I am just wondering if, other than this listed here, is this all the additional costs to the government as a result of the fuel increase.

-----
The reason I ask that Mr. Speaker is that it has on here the Harvesters' Subsidy Program of 800 thousand dollars, sorry, I guess they wish it were 800 thousand dollars. Eighty thousand dollars, but there is nowhere on here that would show the Homeowners' Fuel Subsidy which would be approximately 720 thousand.

When this was prepared, the subsidy from the Homeowners' Rebate Program was a fairly recent item and the Housing Corporation staff obviously didn't include that when they factored that into the social housing costs.

I will just note another example of last year in the 2000/2001 Main Estimates, there was an increase of 601 thousand dollars to LHOs to offset a 5-cent increase in fuel prices, Mr. Speaker.

I realize that Culture, Language, Elders & Youth is a new department but we need to start seeing results. Under the Department of Culture, Language, Elders & Youth, the money put aside for Inuit Qaujimajatuqangit is only 1% and I would encourage that the government increase the 1%.

Like I was saying 50% of our population is under the age of 25 and a lot of them are in school and when they graduate they have expectations of all having jobs in Nunavut because a lot of us were told that and a lot of us have told the younger people that.

-----
The previous minister developed a policy that you could get it twice a month, bi-weekly which is a great move, because we all heard horror stories of students not having enough money and trying to survive on hand outs, most students in southern Canada are probably like those in northern Canada, they have to go to relatives for meals.

We've caught up, we're there now, but I think it's time to back off on a lot of this stuff and my question to you today is, are you prepared to do a review of the student financial assistance program and have some vision on where we're going and not where we are.

They've given me every reason why it can't be done and if they would only understand that a pre-carpentry course if we can get thirty people enrolled, and if they got the basics of carpentry they might get a job on this project.

-----
I'm just wondering what steps or has the department undergone any type of a process to take a look at and see exactly what levels that our kids who are going through the system are at compared to where they're at in the system and where they're actually at if they've been given an exam.

I remember reading something or hearing something on the radio, at one point where it said that there's a lot of our students that are below the level of which they're at in schools.

I'll offer three comments in response to that question Mr. Chairman.
*************** 
asuillaak, imminik uuktuutigijunnaqtugut suurlu naasausirinirmut quvvasingnirijavut kanatamit suurluqai.
-----
Nunavut does participate in various national testing that goes on so we can compare ourselves to, for example, mathematics achievement levels across Canada.
*************** 
asuillaak, taanna kajusitiinnatuinnarattigut, taanna nutaungimmat.
-----
So that's something that we've carried on, that's not new.
***************

It was available under the GNWT and we've carried on with that.

-----
The second thing is internally within our policy shop we are developing a student records system, which will allow us to track student achievement data better. It will give us better data on our students.
***************

We didn't inherit any kind of good computer system.
***************

So that's something we are doing and that work is not completed, it's ongoing.

-----
The third and final comment I would offer Mr. Chairman, in response to the member's question is that this is one area that we have a lot of work to do over many years because one of the challenges in the testing is are we testing our students in their first language.
*************** 
qaujisarniuqattartuq ilinniarutigijaujunit kanatami piliriangusuunguvuq qallunaatitut uiviititullu, taakkua uqausiurngarnikuungimmatiik ilinniaqtiqutittinnut amisuujunut.
-----
The testing that goes on across Canada is done either in English or in French, neither one of those languages is the first language of the majority of our students.
*************** 
ajurnarutigiluarajaqtanga qaujinasugluni ilinniaqtiit quttingnirijanginnit.
-----
So it creates a complication in terms of administering the test and the test results.

-----
So long term and I must emphasize this Mr. Chairman, this is a lot of work and it will take many years to get there but it's something worth doing, is to embark upon testing our students in all the languages of Nunavut and not just English and French.
*************** 
taanna ungasiktumut turaagattiavaugajartuq.

That would be a long-term goal, but a worthy one.

-----
We have to find a way to standardize it so that we ensure the same students should be able to come from a grade 6 in any community in Nunavut and go to any other community in Nunavut and be at the same level. Regardless whether it is in English or in Inuktitut and I think that's something that we need to strive for.
***************

Really pinning down some stats and through this evaluating and monitoring where the kids are at is crucial to that.

I think also, we may want to, and I don't know if any testing is done and maybe it's another question that is what level our kids are at when they enter into the system.

-----
The Department of Education also plays a role in early childhood development so do we need to put more of an emphasis on preparing our children to enter the system so that it's not an uphill struggle you know, from day one when they enter the system so that they're ready to be there.
***************

The reason I asked the question was, before doing some new development for the teachers in Nunavut, I think somewhere down the line that we start thinking about doing this type of workshop within Nunavut, instead of having to go down south.

The estimate is savings of 1 million dollars, in the first year, which was a two-year phase-in. The first year, the savings projected were 578 thousand dollars, that was partially 232 thousand from the elimination of two positions at the DEC level, and 346 thousand was elimination of the board, the board support functions, board travel, per-diems, etc.

When an applicant has an assessment completed such as a child tax benefit payment, which is a federal payment, the goods and services tax rebate, which is another federal payment, child welfare payments, I'm not familiar with that. The value of essential equipment to carry out harvesting activities, daycare subsidies payment, the value of property used as a resident unless the property is in excess of reasonable needs of the applicant, to name a few.

It has to be the same amount of money in income support so, does each community have the same amount of money given to them and do they have the same policy in each community.

We also have a growing number of younger people out there and I don't want to pick on a group but there's a young single group, the males that access this income support and it's not a lot, I think a single male in the territory gets about 360 dollars a month on income support.

But that's not the issue with me, the issue with me is that, is there any way that you guys, when the department is working on the review, is there some way they can try and encourage the younger guys that are on income support or social assistance to maybe take some extra training or improve their life skills. Then re-evaluate how the program delivery is with income support and partner with Arctic College or education.

That's good to see that the DEAs are finally getting an increase.

-----
So this funding that the DEAs are getting is an increase of roughly 800 thousand. Can the DEAs if they so wish enhance their cultural inclusion program, enhance the classroom support, special needs, is there going to be restrictions on what the DEA can do with that increased funding.

It's a little different in each part of Nunavut, under the three former divisional education councils each one did it a little differently.

-----
What we are encouraging is that it be more similar and it be an open process because in some parts of Nunavut the process was more open than in other parts and we'd like to see it more open in all parts.

-----
Generally what will happen and what has happened in some parts is that the formula funding drives figures and says okay for this school based on this student population, that means you have this amount for teachers, this amount for language specialists etc., etc., etc.
*************** 
taimanna aulaniqaqpuq kiinaujalirijjusiq.

and that's what the formula does.
*************** 
ajauqtauvugulli issivautaaq, tamanna taimaitaulaurmat ilanginnit nunavummi kingunittinnik. maanna takujumaliqtavut nunavuulimaamit piliriangutillugu.
-----
Then what we are encouraging and as I say Mr. Chairman, this was done in parts of Nunavut before but now we want to see it done in all parts of Nunavut is that we want the DEA working with the principal and to fine tune that.

So if in a community for example, Sanikiluaq, decides they want to have one less classroom teacher and one and half more language specialists that is their prerogative to do that.

Having said that we in the Department of Education, we've watched that process so that if each DEA and principal went through that, we'd want to make sure that the process didn't go off the rails.

-----
Mr. Chairman, the positions that are allocated to the schools, how are they funded. Are these done based on, strictly based on the formula that exists on the school funding on the per capita or per student ratio that's used in determining the funding levels and the staffing levels of the schools.
***************

-----
The allocation by school is first done by formula, which is student driven and that says this school should get for example so many teachers, so many language specialists.
***************

-----
Then there is now flexibility in the system which wasn't the case in all parts of Nunavut under the former divisional councils, the local DEA and the principal of the school can then tailor that to fit local priorities as long it overall makes educational good sense.
***************

-----
So, the example I used earlier this evening Mr. Chairman, in the case of Sanikiluaq they've chosen to have less in the way of classroom teachers but more in the way of language specialists.
*************** 
asikkannia ilisavik, suurlu tamaani iqalunni, uvvaluunniit qamaniqtuarmi niruarunnaqput ilisaijikkanirnik amma qattiinnauniqsanik uqausilirijinik.

Another school, for example, here in Iqaluit, or Baker Lake might choose to have more classroom teachers and less language specialists.

-----
So just to summarize, the allocation is done by formula in the first instance and that says here's how much money you have per school, here is the formula that is student driven but then there is flexibility to allow the local DEA and the local principal to say here's what's most important for us in our community.
*************** 
taimaimmat, kiinaujaqtunnginniqsaujunnaqput kiasilu nunalimmiutigut isumaliurunnaqtutik amma aturunnaqtutik tunirrutaujunik kiinaujanik.

When it was under the three divisional boards, it was my understanding and I can be corrected if I am wrong, that the minister said that was funded per student up to a maximum of a certain number of students. I heard that and I would like to ask for some clarification.

When we were still under the Government of the Northwest Territories, at the time of the Divisional Board of Education, it seems like I'm not really sure exactly how it ran. But, when they were going to be teaching Inuit Culture, there used to be people that took that course to give them cross cultural education or training, like to teach the new recruits how to live in the north and how to teach in the North.

Mr. Chairman, I am just wondering when I mentioned earlier that I met with departmental staff and the minister in the past, one of the issues that raised a concern in the communities with the teachers is the fact that according to the formula your principal and support staff were counted into that formula into the schools. With the direction the Education Act is taking and some of the changes in that, it is adding more administrative responsibilities on the shoulders of the principals.
***************

I do know there's an economic impact for the community of Chesterfield Inlet, I believe there's six to eight full time positions, as well as about 300 thousand dollars that's pumped directly into Chesterfield Inlet through groceries, for buying things and so on for the facility.

Mr. Speaker, as I've tried to explain we were only notified about six weeks ago at the end of January, and it was actually not correspondence directly from the Bishop but from the secretary manager from the Hamlet of Chesterfield Inlet in a fax to my office that indeed they were looking at pulling out of that facility.

I should say Mr. Speaker, at this time the Kivalliq region, through the Northern Medical Unit out of Manitoba has indeed had quite a few doctors available, on call when we've needed them in the region and so on.

If there is a need Mr. Speaker, in Arviat for a doctor based on a caseload, then Mr. Speaker, that is something we would try and facilitate.

So Mr. Speaker there are other options there, instead of just having a physical presence of a doctor and as I said before Mr. Speaker, I know that every community would like to have a doctor but we also have the opportunity for other initiatives like telehealth, which other jurisdictions by the way Mr. Speaker have put in place.

Mr. Speaker, the member knows fully well that before anything can happen, you need a written letter in formal writing stating what the concern is, what has happened and documentation to back that up before a cheque is issued.

Mr. Chairman, over the past few months, the standing committee has had the opportunity to meet with the Minister responsible for the Nunavut Housing Corporation on several occasions, and have carefully reviewed their capital plan, main estimates and business plan.

This continues to be of great concern to the committee, especially when we read in the Corporation's own business plan that the potential demand for housing in Nunavut will increase by approximately 260 homes per year over the next five years.

The committee believes that the housing corporation budget does not place enough emphasis on social housing, particularly given that the Bathurst Mandate identifies housing as one of the two core priorities of the Government of Nunavut.

I guess I would say that my response to the delivery of the budget address and finding out the budget allocations for housing again, to see for the second year in a row a decrease and this year it's not just a 60 thousand dollar decrease in housing and funding for the capital, it's 5 million dollars.

They should be maybe a one bedroom place, because people, I think, they're in a living room smaller than their sleeping area so I think living areas need to be improved and I think we're going to be talking about more of those in detail later.

So it is very hard to buy anything to maintain your house and I know that I've asked this in the House before and I got the answer, that some of the communities who have businesses, supplying these things, even mechanics or furnishing people that could help you but there's nothing in a lot of the communities.

One thing as the Nunavut Housing Corporation, Mr. Chairman, when we were part of the NWT we had policies that applied to both the NWT and Nunavut which at that time was part of the NWT.

We all used the same policies throughout the Northwest Territories and the people of Nunavut seemed to be left out when it was still the government of the NWT. They gave more support to the western portion of the NWT, be it subsidies for oil or whatever and at that time we had more hardship, more so than the people from the west.

But the highest construction cost to build a house, and I don't know about our wages, they say you make a lot of money in the north but I'm beginning to think that's a fallacy when you start comparing things like go north young man, go north young woman, you'll reach your goal.

We've convinced people in the north that being a part of a homeownership program is a good thing.

That was one of the requests from the standing committee was to give a down payment for up to 30 thousand dollars to new home purchasers.

You had quite a number of questions and I'm sure I'll be leaving some out but the first question you brought up was in regards to some of the clients who said that they bought the older units, and that they should have been brought up to code by the government.

I don't know what's in that policy but what I can say is that when the units get too old and if they want to retrofit them, they can do so and if they're going to do so, there are funds available. There's the 1 million dollar pot that they can request funds from.

If they can advise me how my question was hypothetical when I was in fact asking is there a program for the old buildings like the GNWT staff housing that were sold to staff, especially new NTEP students who have graduated and are teachers who want to purchase those staff houses that they have started living in.

They were qualified to do so, however because the old buildings have traditional foundations, the gap between the walls and the floor opens in the wintertime and closes in summer from the fluctuations in the permafrost, above the permafrost.

Mr. Speaker, on a personal note, I'd also like to take this opportunity to thank my wife Oopa who has been home quite sick for the past week and although this House has been sitting as the members continually state, me included Mr. Speaker, our families come first.

Although we have been sitting late and this morning I left the house at 7:30, a woman's work is never done, she has to stay home and continue to take care of the children and cook and everything else that a women has to do.
***************

When we are going through hard times for example, we get noticed and the media says a lot of negative things about us. I think it is our spouses who get hurt a lot more with those sharp words that are directed towards us.

We can never fully understand how they feel, and I think that we should be a little bit more sensitive towards our spouses, especially today, and with the kind of campaigns that we have when we run for hamlet council or for the Legislative Assembly.
***************

(interpretation ends) I just wanted to make the point that our spouses, for those of us who are in elected situations, probably hurt just as much if not more than we do and I think it is time that we give them the recognition that they deserve.

I was recently re-reading the statement that caucus issued at the conclusion of the retreat.

At that time, we identified a number of areas that required concerted attention and effort.

These included strengthening our education system, addressing the gaps in our housing, and community infrastructure, decentralization and ensuring a consultative and accountable government.
***************

I do believe that it was entirely appropriate for members to have spent a number of days scrutinizing in detail the 175 million dollar budget that makes up the single largest departmental budget in the Government of Nunavut.
*************** 
uqaqti, iqqaumagama uqautiuvamaurtunik arraani avittursimaninginnik angirpalirsuta amisukallannik kiinaujanik qilamiruluk.

Mr. Speaker, I recall comments that were made last year in some quarters to the affect that we were approving millions of budget dollars in a matter of minutes.

That kind of observation doesn't reflect well on us, on any of us.

***************

Given the emphasis that the opening address from the budget speech placed on government-wide program review over the coming months, I would think we ourselves should be looking at such issues as the size and structure of our committees and other bodies in the House.

When I was running for MLA and my sister Kathy Towtongie had just run for NTI president, my mom made a comment that when we were born, she used to be let down because she would have this pregnancy and then she would have the baby and it would turn out to be another girl, another girl, another girl, another girl.

Yes, indeed Mr. Speaker in business, for example, it could be a boarding home or it could be a contract. If you changed ownership the contractors in place still continue, and there's many examples of that in business, in hockey for example if you get traded from one team to another if you have a contract it doesn't matter about the ownership of the team, the contracts are still valid.

Mr. Speaker, we've been talking about traditional birthing practices and midwifery and indeed when I was in Pond Inlet with the member there were some questions raised about having more children, more babies being born at the local level instead of having to bring mothers out, sending them to Iqaluit or sending them to Winnipeg or Yellowknife or even Edmonton.

And as I said earlier, it depends on a number of factors Mr. Speaker, do we have the staff in place on the ground and do we have trained midwives or registered midwives, and at the same time, Mr. Speaker, to make sure that it's not a high risk pregnancy and that's something that we're looking at.

It is to bring not only the academic opportunities forward, but to orient students towards a career as a nurse, or in the health field in general. So the access year does what Mr. McLean has asked.

-----
Mr. Speaker, the access year of the nursing program is, like I said before, Mr. Speaker, to make sure that the students who want to go into the first year nursing program have the science, have the math, have the academics to be able to be successful in the first year, second year and so on in succeeding years of the program.

-----
Mr. Speaker, I can't guarantee if you start off with seven, people will drop out of programs for X number of reasons. I believe three of the women dropped out because of pregnancies for example, some of them had to go back to their home communities.

When Mr. McLean asked the original question on the number, I was just thinking up something off the top of my head and that was the number I gave you. It may be less than 80% but it's a very high attrition number.

There are people on the ground at the Arctic College that provide student support services and so on. At the same time Mr. Speaker, as recently as last week I had our Deputy Minister of Health meet with the head of the campus here, Mr. Ludlow, specifically on the nursing program to see if there's any other support that we can put in place.

One of the things that I've also had raised to me by some students, Mr. Speaker, that live in my riding and I'm sure it's not just students that live in my riding but one of the problems, challenges that they all face. On top of a very challenging course is the challenge of being able to survive financially if they have to move their family away from their home community and come here to Iqaluit, to take the course.

I'm just wondering if that 1.3 decrease that he referred to was a decrease in the funding from CMHC and is this the first part of what I understand is the new agreement, the social housing agreement that we signed with CMHC which the federal government has declining funding over the next 30 years basically to nothing.

But what we generally did was we took the ones back from Community Government and Transportation and then did a re-org to come up to the number of staff that we thought we could possibly use, I should say the minimum staff complement that we could possibly use to run the Corporation and that rounded out at 58.

But if we pay off that 215 million that leaves us 28 million dollars a year that we don't have to give back to them. I think if we go from 17% to, I'm sure we could probably negotiate a much lower rate at a financial institution outside of CMHC.

There's two parts to Mr. Havioyak's question. Firstly the deficit, if it is for utilities, we will make it up and bring the LHOs to zero.

However we do bring a team of people from the district office into the local housing organization and work with them, on what, in the community Government and Transportation wording, would be a deficit recovery plan and work with them how they can work their LHO back up to a non-deficit position.

Mr. Speaker, this project, The People, is more than a film production. An initial benefit of direct employment for Inuit during the development of the project at this stage is hoped for and an indirect employment effect once the film has been released.

In my earlier statement I said that there must be consideration and compassion for the patients, I hope the minister appreciates that some of these patients have been there for years and years and they have developed relationships with these individual caretakers in Chesterfield, in fact psychologically replacing them as parents.

Mr. Speaker, I am not in the building and construction trade, but I do understand that codes change on a regular basis, as you know, and in this case it could be in excess of a few hundred thousand dollars on the outside to be able to do the renovations and repairs that are necessary.

As members have heard, different facets of the media portrayed, used the words crisis, disaster, and that word has never come forward from any of my colleagues or myself.
***************

I want to make that clear.

-----
When you look at the projected 12 million dollar deficit, if you look at just this current fiscal year, of our 679 million dollar projected expenditures, that's Mr. Speaker, that's 1.76 % approximately.
***************

So if you use the analogy of somebody spending a hundred dollars, they're spending 101 dollars and 76 cents, you know when they have an income of 100 dollars.

-----
From that perspective I would say no, we're not in, certainly in any crisis situation. We plan to aggressively ensure that we are diligent when we look at departmental spending over the current fiscal year and ensure that legitimate requests that come forward for the departments will be supported.

-----
If there aren't legitimate requests coming forward then I would say to my colleagues, my Cabinet colleagues, as members know, continually come forward to the FMB for reallocations. That they'll be scrutinized more than normal during the course of this coming year, and we hope at the end of the year, even though there's a projected year end 12 million dollar deficit, overall accumulated deficit, that won't be the case.

Can the Minister of Finance, and I know he's had his meetings and they have their little meetings behind closed doors. I know that he doesn't like to let the cat out of the bag, but in those meetings behind those closed doors, if he could give us a hint, that maybe the Minister of Finance might have promised us, there might be some move in the future on giving us some additional revenues.

-----
Having said that Mr. Speaker, I also want to note that again the media portrayal is that once we have signed the formula financing agreement, there are no open doors, it's closed for the next three years and that is not the case.
***************

-----
Mr. Speaker, I mean during the regular course of the formula financing agreement, there are annual adjustments that are made, depending on the circumstances in southern Canada, it is part of the formula, that moving adjustment based on circumstances across the country.
*************** 
uqattarama taimaak taima tamanna kajusiniaraluarmangaaq nalunaisimallarinngittuq ilajauniarmangaata kiinaujaturutissait.

Now having said that, it isn't always guaranteed that there will be additional revenues.

-----
The fact is that there are opportunities because of the escalators, because of the gross expenditures base adjustments and quite frankly interpretations between officials, that the ministers don't necessarily have to sign off on, there are adjustment made on an annual basis for the formula financing agreement, for one thing.

-----
Now the members recognize that the formula financing agreement, as I said in my budget speech is approximately 83% of our revenues, we still have 8 % of other revenues from other departments of the government, outside of the formula financing agreement.

-----
Whether it's in the area of health care, whether it's in the housing, training needs, infrastructure needs, the internet, as my colleague Mr. Akesuk spoke on earlier today, there's other programs, federal programs that all governments have access to.

I'd like to ask him like how, how quickly are they going to be sitting down with his federal counterparts to go over some of these issues and how soon are we going to find out whether or not we are going to be able to see any additions, or more money to the formula.

But if the member is referring to the review that Minister Martin supported, it's a matter of our officials and theirs getting together. They have actually had some preliminary discussions yesterday as well while Minister Martin's staff where here.

So, it's a matter of trying to formalize the parameters as I had indicated in the past, of the review, the timing and the scope of the review.

Of course if they required support from myself or the Premier or any other Cabinet member we would offer to help them out in moving forward and trying to access some of the other federal programming.

-----
If he's referring to actual formula financing agreement adjustments, that takes place automatically during the course of the year based on the formula itself and the factors in the formula, the timing in the formula.

-----
Mr. Speaker, I know that and I've been a believer right from day one that the formula, like any formula is something that is done up ahead of time on best guesses and it's something that you have to re-look at because you don't know, you are pretty much guessing as you are going along.

If the formula were adequate, we wouldn't see those numbers because theoretically we've been allocated through the formula adequate resources to deliver the programs and services that we are required to as a government.

I'm just wondering, you know, how soon are we going to be seeing some of these changes to the formula and as the minister indicated once they figure out the timing and the scope of this, will that information be made available to the members as well.

-----
Mr. Speaker, I don't want to get too technical, I've indicated that Minister Martin has agreed to have his officials and have our officials work to review the fiscal capacity of the funding for our programs and services in Nunavut.
*************** 
tamanna piliriarinasunniaqpavut nalunanngittuq qilamiujunnaqtutigut, qaujimalugu isumalluta, nunavut gavamanga isumammatailaak amigaqtuqatuinnariaqaratta niriugijattinni gavamatuqakkunnut piliriangugunnarniaqtunit.
-----
We are going to try and undertake that work, obviously, as soon as possible, given that we think, the Government of Nunavut thinks, that we may have some deficiencies that we are hoping that the Federal Government can address.
***************

-----
Having said that, there is also on the bigger scale, federally, provincially, territorially, the equalization and the formula renewals that will take place in the next fiscal year. Now, leading up to that a lot of the federal Department of Finance officials will undertake some initial work and discussions in anticipation of negotiations.
***************

-----
So that is an area that would complicate matters for us from the perspective of the Nunavut Territory, the Yukon and the Northwest Territories, because our formula financing arrangements are quite different from the equalization payments to the provinces.
***************

They are on a different track as far as the negotiations go.

But the fact is that the Nunavut Government and the other two Territories are lumped together in the discussions on amendments to the formula financing agreements.

So we are trying to quite frankly, remove ourselves in this particular instance from that to try to address things outside of the formula, if at all possible.

gavamatuqakkunnik kiinaujaqtaarivattatinnut ilaliutigasukkaluaruttigu pijariatuluanngusummat taikkununga aippanginnut marruunnuk angijuqqaaqarviujuunnuk.
-----
Given that if there are specific needs that are found Nunavut wide, we will have to try to address that outside of the formula. If we try to roll it in to the formula it is complicated by the other two jurisdictions.
***************

I would assume that whatever is happening in Alberta, Saskatchewan and any of the other provinces in the south or territories, whatever happens there, how does that affect our formula.

Mr. Speaker, one of the big components of the formula funding agreement is the provincial/territorial/municipal expenditures across the country.

So it is an indicator of how strong the economy is and is based on expenditures and that is one of the facets where I say it is from factors from outside of the Nunavut Territory.

I know Mr. Speaker, a lot of the more recent homeownership programs required the client to obtain a mortgage from the bank based on their income and what they are eligible for and then the corporation or the government assistance kicked in on top of that.

I am just wondering if any of these problems that have arisen with homeownership clients, has the corporation taken over those mortgages, instead of the clients dealing with the bank they are now dealing directly with the corporation.

But if she is looking up that information could she also find out like throughout the whole corporation if any additional assistance has been provided to any past homeownership clients. Also could we get like a total of how much it cost the corporation for additional support and also, a total amount if any on either of these Mr. Speaker, if any of them were mortgages that have been bought out from the bank by the corporation and the client is now dealing directly with the corporation.

qujannamiik, uqaqtii.
-----
Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
***************

-----
I was not completely finished with my statement about people wanting us not to eat meat.
*************** 
isumatuinnarataarama qanuittunik niqinik nirisuunguttarmangaata uumajuit isumattanirmangaata.
-----
I just wondered what kinds of food those people figured animals eat.
***************

-----
I was also disappointed when I was reading the National Post.
*************** 
titiraqtimut titiraqtaminiq kanatami pivalliajunik apirisimalaurngat summat inuit nunavummi gavamataaqtanirmangaata, akituluaqtualuummagguuq.
-----
The editorial in the National Post asked why the Inuit people got the Nunavut Government, that it was just too expensive.
*************** 
uqaqsimalaurngat pillarinngittumiikkattaguuq silarjuarmi, taimailingalaurngat kanatami pivalliajunit.
-----
It said that we are in a dream world, that is what was in the National Post.
***************

To me it was a shortsighted thing to say.
***************

I thought about it and as we all know that there are diamonds here in the north, there are also gold and other minerals.

-----
It will not take a lot of mines for us to start raising our own revenues and we will become more independent in terms of the funding we get from the federal government.
*************** 
tamanna pigiaqpat ilitaqsilirajaqpaat uqaqattalirlutillu tuniuqqailualiratta ningiqtanik gavamatuqakkunnut.
-----
Once that happens will they recognize that and start saying we are giving too many royalties to the federal government.
***************

-----
Are they going to tell us to keep our money up here.

Last year, Mr. Speaker, Miali worked with me to help get a youth centre for Iqaluit and when she comes back to town, I'm sure that she will once again be there not only as a role model but also as a volunteer for Iqaluit and Nunavut youth.

On February 2, 2001 the Honourable Steve Ashton, Manitoba Minister of Highways and Services, and I had meetings with the Federal Minister of Transport, the Honourable David Collenette and the Honourable Ron Duhamel, Minister responsible for Western Economic Diversification, to solicit support and funding for additional studies on the Kivalliq to Manitoba road link and initial winter road construction.

It is quite a lengthy review and it's not easy to do. There are 3100 rental units in Nunavut.

We can't place everybody all at the same time but there will be a meeting in Rankin Inlet on Monday to hear from the people out there about what they would like to see in regards to the rental scale.

We are looking at the concerns raised about employed tenants and their high rents and we are also looking at the high cost of living in Nunavut and we are looking at how we can give more support to the people out there.

-----
We hear on the local radio station that there are some tenants that will be evicted, sometimes in the middle of the winter and the reason why they are getting evicted is because of the accumulated arrears and the reason why it gets like that is because of the percentage of the income that is deducted for the house.

I think that if we decrease the percentage things will improve and that's the reason why I asked you when was the last time that there was a revision to the rental scale that we currently use.

I think the best way to go about this is if we decrease the percentage that is deducted from the income of the tenant and that was the reason why I asked you that question.

Mr. Speaker, the housing associations at the community level, following the policy, know who has be evicted from the house because usually these tenants have not paid any rent and there's people on the waiting list who can pay for the monthly rent.

During the summer in Kugluktuk, youth go swimming on the shore right on the ocean.

I know that they are very well compensated by the government, but for the last few years, I think that the government needs to be more sensitive to the issues that have been prioritized by the Hamlet Councils.

I could use this example, because of course it costs a lot of money to operate a community, Repulse Bay, and I am sure it is not the only community in Nunavut like this.
***************

The water reservoir in Repulse Bay is a problem and the access road is hard to maintain in the winter.

We should look at how we can have better access to the water reservoirs, the trucks and equipment that is used and also the access roads that lead us to the water reservoirs, the garbage dumps and so on.

The reason why I mention this is because in many communities usually it is the SAO who makes the decisions instead of the mayor.

In order to represent the communities properly they have to be well trained, but I would like the mayors of the communities to be the decision makers and not the SAOs.
***************

Also, another issue that I would like to bring up is the lack of recreational facilities, especially in the smaller communities.

-----
Most of the Hamlet Councils have SAOs who used to work previously with the Hudson Bay company where they gained their experience and then they went to the co-ops and from the co-ops they went to the housing associations gaining their experience and their knowledge and they end up as the SAOs of the Hamlet Council.

What they are actually looking at is getting a dump truck that is privately owned.

-----
You know, I think, you know, in the desire to try and find some cost savings and a cheaper way of providing services, you know, an indication, an example I could use is the Minister of Public Work's statement earlier today about awarding a sea-lift contract for all government stuff, services for two years to one carrier.
***************

And if so, I think, you know, all we have to do is look at the Air Canada merger where oh don't worry, you know, if you let us merge we are going to, things will get better and prices won't go up and things like that will keep things the same, you know, and sure enough after a year of the promise of they say oh we'll keep it in place for this long and, you know, as soon as that time is up people are being laid off, prices are going up.

-----
I think that, you know, when, I don't think it's fair for the federal, maybe an argument that is hopefully being used already is that, you know, by the government, is that you know, we took over the operations of the airports based on those types of things not being in place.

They used to be there but as soon as they got rid of those services at the airports, transferred the operation and the responsibility to maintain those airports to the other jurisdictions and they passed a law again saying that those services have to be back in there.

One of the other things that I'm happy to see here and I'm just wondering if, I'll be asking later is a commitment to provide less regular funding, I guess is a way to put it to the municipalities as far as quarterly funding or semi-annual funding instead of a monthly requirement.

I think the move to truly empower the community is to be able to administer and deliver some of these programs and services themselves, falls in line with what we've identified as a government in the Bathurst Mandate for sustainable communities in allowing for the communities to look after themselves, provide additional employment not only in the decentralized communities but in all the communities.

In developing the hamlet status for the smaller communities and the settlements, I think that people should be proud of people that work in hamlets and do the administrative work and believe in the fact that they can improve their status as administrators of the community.

If we can get block funding to look after all of these programs we realize in my community because the block funding was separated to each program our community was not getting any better in their ability to administer their programs.

For instance when our community was broke there should be some employees that are more experienced in working with hamlets and the problems that are confronted by hamlet administrative processes, because they could not understand exactly what was going on.

As much as we would like to get more, the government has identified education and housing as priorities and what we would like to try and keep going on is that, under the issue of education, is that healthy communities, the only way we are going to get healthy communities, not necessarily physically but also mentally is through I think, recreation facilities in the communities.

We will be consulting with the communities in regards to the capital planning process, but at this time, the variations in the community requests and also the government implementation of some of the requirements that we have to meet through the legal process, we started this consultation process in December and it's an ongoing process.

In that 26%, I guess the remaining portion of that, does that cover off all of the department's commitments in those areas, or are there still other projects within the department's, within the communities that aren't able to be done that are either ongoing commitments or have statutory or legal requirements or health and safety concerns.

Just to give you a quick overview, if we take the list that came in initially from communities, as their priority projects for this fiscal year that we are looking at, the list was in the neighbourhood of 30 million.

So we started to work with communities on reducing the initial list downwards and then when the priorities were set for Education and Health and we got the target of 13 million, obviously a number of community priority projects couldn't be addressed within that 13 million.

So we have tried to use an allocation and there is still ongoing consultation with communities and we are prepared where the dollars are similar to where if a community has a higher priority project, say in year two or three, to look at moving that ahead and the one that we had in back.

I guess what I'm getting at, I remember, in our first year of capital, we had zero wiggle room, everything that was on there was basically carried over from the previous year. I'm just wondering if all the carryover has been addressed within the department's jurisdiction, I guess with the community governments, with the hamlets and municipalities and the transportation area have those been met, or are there any projects that have previously started that aren't finished, or completed or have any resources allocated this year.

Of course, we have to do those things and the communities may not necessarily agree or be the priority of that community.

We've been asked to coordinate, lead in that consultation process and what we will be doing is either visiting in communities or conference call with communities to arrive at what would be considered the first Nunavut Government five-year capital plan.

And so there's been two processes, there was one where we were using early data and now that there's been a release of the five-year plan the MLA's were given initially we've now been asked to meet with the council and to allow for pre-consultation and input on that new five-year plan.

-----
The rest of the year say maybe from May to September or something like that sometimes the youth, for example the arenas, right across Nunavut, if there were some funds that could go to these communities which is very hard to do but in the future, I'm saying that they should be able to use those large facilities year round.
***************

For example, in the summertime they should be able to use the ice arena for roller-skating or the large space that is being used all summer long.

Sometimes they might use it for indoor soccer.

-----
I am sure that the department has looked at putting together a policy to make this work, but before you can do a really good policy, at least I think you know, you should complete the pilot project and draw out some of the things that you have learned from that pilot project.
***************

Drawing up a policy before you can do some work, again using the example of artificial ice, I feel that it would not be a complete thing when you are drawing up a policy without learning out how to do it before.

Using that letter we can approach the federal government for additional funds and the Hamlet of Kugluktuk can also make a contribution or the Department of Education or the private contractors or companies and the Nunavut Government can get together and pool their resources to provide those facilities.

-----
In terms of what we may want to do, let's say for the three communities that I mentioned earlier would probably cost of a total of about 9 hundred thousand dollars if not just more than a million dollars. Whereas a new arena or a new swimming pool or community hall would probably be quite a bit more than that.

And so, we just mentioned these again because of the very fact as I mentioned earlier, we have a facility in Sanikiluaq, an arena that has been utilized not much more than a month this year, so at least eleven months out of it where it's not being used other than it was used for a singing festival.

Again I point out that to build hockey arenas in those two communities would be quite a bit more than at this point if we have some additional money but not necessarily enough to build hockey arenas or other recreational facilities, we may have some to enhance some other recreational facilities without necessarily saying our priorities are to enhance the recreational facilities. Because our priorities are to make a good recreational program available to all and to get the maximum usage of the recreational facilities that we have.

I guess the shortest answer would be to say because the municipality administers the land we would have to, in order for us to check something out like that and to maybe try and respond to the long delay, we would want to learn the individual case. Then we could look at it and the problems that they went through and use that as an example to see if it's the process.

-----
Again, using Chesterfield Inlet as an example, they tried building a docking facility but the people of Chester were telling them that when it's blowing from the Hudson Bay, it would just get washed away. They put in huge boulders, those boulders that I'm talking about are half the size of this chamber, around this circle, but when the wind blew from the ocean they just got washed away.

-----
That's what was predicted by the residents, they spend 40 thousand dollars rebuilding the boulders every summer but when it flows over, they are washed away.
***************

What I'm trying to say is if they had listened to the people of Chesterfield Inlet, the docking facility would still be there.
***************

-----
That 85 million dollars could be put to good use if you listen to the communities.

-----
The minister has stated earlier that he had a meeting with the Bob Nault and he said he was very receptive and there is a possibility that he might be giving us further funds, additional funds that could be used to rebuild or relocate the docking facilities in some of the communities.

On his example of Chesterfield Inlet, I have used that docking facility and I do know that when there's high winds they have very high waves from Hudson Bay.

In regards to the capital dollars, it could be used for the building of roads or the building of access roads or the docking facilities.

Nunavut is the only territory or province that has no docking facilities for these types of small crafts that we use.

-----
Our officials have asked the Department of Fisheries and Oceans and they are drafting up an agreement, once that agreement is signed we can access funds from the DFO that will be used for these docking facilities and also making the communities more accessible by small craft.

-----
I agree with the member, that these communities are the ones that know their communities and they're the ones who know where these facilities should be built and I wouldn't want to oppose their decisions because of course we have to respect the communities and their suggestions.

-----
If we're going to be rebuilding or building docking facilities, the people might even suggest moving it to another location because of course they know where the water is bad, when there are high winds, where the currents are and where the ice movements are. So we'll take all this into consideration.

Mr. Speaker, earlier this week accompanied by a fellow islander, Minister Kattuk from the Sanikiluaq islands, and a good friend of mine and yours, the jovial RCMP, Corporal Jimmy Akavak, we struck out to pursue the elusive big game, known locally here in Nunavut as tuktu.

Mr. Speaker, I think the member brings up an excellent point and I would support that not only to the nursing students but also to all students attending Arctic College, and indeed, post secondary education whether it be in Nunavut or indeed, in a southern institution.

Mr. Speaker, I think this question should probably go to the Minister of Education, who has the overall view of the programs.

I know that student support through Education has been there for the nursing program and the nursing students.

-----
I don't know Mr. Speaker, if I could add any more to that, I know that in my opinion itself I think, since the members asks what my opinion is on support, of course, you know that ministers aren't supposed to give their opinions.

What I can say is that it is the policy of this government to support students whether they are in the nursing program or any other post secondary or other program that is being delivered in Nunavut or indeed, in other institutions.

I know for example Mr. Speaker, that we are looking at the opportunity for different bursaries that may be available specifically for the nursing program students so that they could give them an extra opportunity for income.

I'd like to ask the minister and first off state, I'm very pleased with the law school being formed and the students being given, I think, adequate resources and support to be successful and I think it is high time these steps were taken to ensure that these students have the tools that they need to succeed.

Could the minister commit to looking at developing, with the Minister of Health & Social Services and the Minister of Education, a similar program that would allow and entice with the same principles that he talks about in recruiting students for this law school to provide that same kind of support to getting nurses into a nursing program and ensuring that we get good quality candidates and we give them the resources that they need to succeed.

What I am asking is, looking at the lack of the success rate that we are seeing in the nursing program and the prices that we face in Nunavut, and our nursing stations and hospitals, it may not be a bad idea for a one time or for this first term or the second term or for a set period of time for X number of students where we want to get some Nunavummiut through this program succeed and have them working in our nursing stations.

I know the member agrees that we should not weaken the safety rules or regulations. We should be looking for ways that we can give more assistance or support and I'm aware that there are already existing programs to help the hunters purchase their safety equipment at half price or they could buy them through their local hunter's and trapper's organization and Nunavut Tunngavik has assistance programs for safety equipment.

But generally as members know, because of the new structure with the five-year capital plan, there is over the next four years roughly about 80 plus million dollars still to be allocated that hasn't been identified in the current draft of the five-year plan for communities that members have.

-----
So it's a matter of each department, for example now once get finished with the 2000-2001 budget that's before us now, the planning will start for the next capital year and as members know the plan is to try and accelerate and bring forward a fall capital plan, so it can be approved by the Legislature probably a likelihood of October of 2001, of this year, the 2001-2002 year.

So I mean those, that work is ongoing now with departments. But the Standing Committees and members will get an opportunity obviously and there is a round of consultation as well, two rounds actually, more than likely rounds of consultation with communities between that time, between now for the time the capital will be approved for next year, next two financial years from now.

It's not that way right now but for the future we have been thinking about it and to have their two way radios in the boats. We see down south they all have numbers on their boat but we don't have that at this time in Nunavut but that's what we have been gearing towards.

-----
But I'm sure the fact is, as I pointed out earlier to one of the questions, when we get to that level of having to enforce those certain regulations as it relates to small boats, a lot of the majority of the small boat owners are usually hunters with a minimum of wages if any.

So, we are very active in boat safety, and that's got nothing to do with the regulations per se, but we do have people that are out in the communities delivering talks on boat safety and talking about personal floatation devices, having paddles, having flares, the types of things that would make it much safer for boating in the north.

But we will, before we get into actually implementing any of the new regulations, there will be a good opportunity for review of what the federal requirements will be and how we can address making sure that all our boats and our owners are ready.

We have had very preliminary discussions with NTI, I flew with one of the Vice Presidents once on a trip and they're prepared as well to look at the issue with us, in terms of beneficiaries money to help in equipping the Peterhead boats and what not with some of the equipment that some of these would require.

So we're just getting started in that but we are very active as the minister has indicated and he's provided direction to the staff to push boat safety right from day one and eventually as the regulations come in, that's probably going to be enhanced.

I guess it was based on the community's need and I guess well then what the question I basically asked is, who determines whose needs are more of a priority than another's needs because I'm sure that every community for everything that they send in and for anything, any community will be able to justify why they need it.

Mr. Speaker, as the Human Resources Minister, the reason why it would have an impact is obviously through the collective agreement process that's under negotiation now as the members know.

Mr. Speaker, the Labour Standards Act, which is where this policy or this piece of legislation would need amending, is something that is outside of a collective agreement.

So I am just wondering, does a separate piece of legislation dictate what the collective bargaining is. I would have thought that something like that, like any change would be a consequential amendment that would just be required and passed on.

-----
I still fail to see where it would have an effect, because it is a separate piece, it is a law, and I don't see how you can hold the law as something for collective bargaining. A law is a law and whether you like it or not, it is there to be followed.

But the reason I brought up the issue of the collective bargaining process, members may recall that we tried to adjust our Northern Allowance outside of the collective agreement, and add additional money for the benefit of our employees and the union took exception to that. They said we were going outside of the collective bargaining process, moving in bad faith and so on and so forth.
***************

We are at a critical stage with mediated negotiations due to take place, which in a week and a half from now, will really be a make or break as far as how far along we are going to go towards reaching an agreement.

Mr. Speaker, again in respect of the collective bargaining process, there is an agreement that there is a media blackout right now, that there are no discussions of what has been discussed, what has been agreed upon, what issues are outstanding.

Again to meet the due process of trying to respect the negotiation process between our employees through the Northern Employees' Union and our negotiators, I think that we have to await the outcome of the April 4 to 8 discussions before we can move forward in any fashion on any benefit legislation, whatever the case may be that would impact on our employees.

So I just would like to ask the minister, again, is it just his opinion that they are not, that they are deciding that this is something that deals with collective bargaining and they are therefore treating it like any other benefit of employment.

Well, Mr. Speaker, there is a change. As members know, we committed, based on recommendations from members, to try and do a fall capital session.

-----
So that has really accelerated and crunched down and condensed the timeframe for consultation, not only with municipalities of course, but with members of our standing committees who have a real interest in the capital plan and all programs of the government.

-----
I think I would want to reiterate the fact that we have undertaken to do consultations with municipalities, I don't want the expectation that because we are doing consultations, that every request that they identify is going to be addressed.

Because members know that we don't have all the financial resources to identify and fund every single matter that comes forward.

Recognizing that and trying to balance that off with the needs of the municipalities and balance that off with some of the requests that the Members of the Assembly have.

If we had an employee, who was working with the hamlet council, or us as you know it is the hamlets who are responsible for the airports at the community level. If there were an individual who worked more than a year, getting paid by the hour, we would ensure that they are treated properly because they are very experienced in working in that field.

Provided that they have a good safety record in their employment we wouldn't want to just lay them off. However the municipality, all the people that work at the airports are the responsibility of the hamlet councils, I could look into this so I could give them some support if they have been long time workers over there.

So the minister is stating that there's no purpose decided yet as to what those funds, no specific purposes I guess for what those funds are going to be used for right now and if that's the case, I'd like to ask, for my community, I'm sure every member would like to ask how they could apply for this funding.

The money, I know it's not going to be a very big amount of money but it's for things that are not expensive, because we know that in the communities, if they want to bring out a community hall, they wouldn't go through under this item, but if they just wanted to make renovations say for instance, next year, they want to renovate, this is where the money comes from.

What the member just mentioned, the pilot projects have nothing to do this, but it's to do with if the community would put in their share and if they get some money from the federal government, then we would be able to help them out or if they can get it from a private company, and then we could talk to the community if they want to do something like that because the 300 thousand dollars is not enough money for capital projects.

Yes, we've gone beyond the pilot project, we're not talking on the pilot project anymore. As I've just explained the pilot project I was promoting last year was to pay for, in entirety, artificial ice for at least three communities.

But now we are past the point where these are not necessarily pilot projects but what we are looking for is supporting communities where if they come forward with a proposal, and we have a couple, then we would evaluate and see where the funding, other sources of funding, are coming from and see what we can do, whether it's a paying 50% or 75% of the project.

For example, if they have to go and get some more gravel for their playground, or maybe to make a swimming pool, if they cannot meet their funding requirements, they can make a proposal for the baseball diamond to put some fencing around it, there is some funding that we can offer.

No, what I said was I had a meeting with the Minister of the Department of Indian Affairs and Northern Development in which we tried to get some money before April 1, but bureaucracy got in the way down in Ottawa. So we're looking at getting some funding for some projects that might qualify under this after April 1 so that the community itself, or the Government of Nunavut, doesn't have to expend all of the money for one project.

So we cannot answer all these proposals before April 1, but maybe perhaps after April the 1st knowing that a lot of the materials that are being proposed will have to be ordered through the sealift and for that reason we'd like to have the answer by April 1 or before that, as soon as we get an answer where we can find the extra funding from.

However, if that money doesn't come forward and the proposals are already there without necessarily the Indian Affairs funding, if the money does come forward that's good, if the money doesn't come forward then we have to look at seeing if we have to go out to more private companies to look for or if we have to expend more of the 300 thousand, in which case it wouldn't go as far as we would like it to.

For example, we would use 300 thousand dollars annually because all the communities, for example, as Kugluktuk I'm sure, would like to initiate their own kinds of projects but we can't do all those projects all at the same time in one fiscal year.

However, what I said was, that in a couple of cases, or at least in one case, the proposal put forward has secured third party funding from other sources and there is a possibility that if we are successful after April 1, in getting some funding from Indian Affairs that we may not necessarily require very much for that particular project.

All I'm trying to say is that third party funding is not necessarily going to be a requirement to get considered, but what I'm saying is that if the hamlet can secure third party funding, then with our support, we could probably stretch this 300 thousand dollars more knowing that this is not going to create any major capital projects but create small ones that we can move forward on.

I know, like you say for example, if there's one project needs 300 thousand dollars of this money, and there's third party funding for 1 million dollars, that's going to create something that's going to have an impact on the O&M budget of that municipality.

I think as a government, we have to ensure that hamlet has the capacity to be able to carry that. Like I said, I'm asking the minister, is the department going to ensure that the hamlet, wherever it is, has the capacity to continue to operate and maintain whatever that project is down the road.

One of the other things that you mentioned, adding a swimming pool, for example, I'll just use as an example because it's one that he mentioned to an arena or to another building and I know that in Rankin Inlet they added the swimming pool onto the arena and we are running into and they are still running into major problems because of the humidity and things like that.

-----
So in places where these types of projects were going to go into conjunction with already existing municipal infrastructure that the government is responsible for, will they be looking at it to ensure that it, that these projects won't have, you know, a detrimental effect on the existing facilities.

-----
So, I just, but not having, I guess I'm saying is that these things are looked at carefully, you know, by our technical people, by our financial people to ensure that it doesn't have a negative impact on the community or on the existing facilities is what I'm getting at.

And the reason I'm saying that is because the minister had indicated earlier that, you know, they weren't really going to take a look at these proposals and I think, you know, and I think that that's something that the department has to do.

For the member's concern about, let's say Rankin Inlet, the Rankin Inlet swimming pool was initiated by the community and funds were raised by the community and I believe that it is operated by the community without necessarily the involvement of the government.

What I said about swimming pools, what I was referring to was that there are portable swimming pools, that the GNWT had at one time where they had portable swimming pools and then the money ran out so they weren't putting them up any more even though the portable swimming pools were still in the communities.

Because again, to go back to the member's comment earlier, we are also looking at, as he said, the municipal financing, we are having a municipal financing review, to see how communities could better utilize the funding that they get from the government, or to have more freedom on the funding that they get from the government.

With this government, they don't have to buy it back from a government department. So over the years, the hamlets would put together this gravel and they won't have to buy it back because the previous way that was co-ordinated didn't make any sense to us.

Mr. Speaker, I am pleased to be able to report to this House the progress of my department in its review of current policy and programs used to support our harvesters in Nunavut.
***************

-----
(interpretation ends) As most members are aware, the Department of Sustainable Development administers a number of policies, which are used to support harvesting, and our traditional economic activities on the land.
*************** 
ikajuutinut kiinaujat aturniaqtut angunasuktinut ataagut pijunnautingitta tamakkua piqujait unurniqarniaqtut ungataani $2.4-milijan maanna arraaguujumi.
-----
Program spending for harvesters made under the authority of these policies will amount to over 2.4 million in this current fiscal year. Our programs support harvesting activities in three general ways.
*************** 
ikajuutivut ikajuqsuijjutauvaktut angunasuktinik pingasuulingallutik.
-----
To support Hunters' and Trappers' Organizations and Regional Wildlife Organizations.

-----
To support resource development programs, such as support to outpost camps and the purchase of sealskins under our Fur Price Program. To support individual harvesters and community groups for subsistence harvesting.
***************

-----
Most of these programs originated in the 1980s, and are in need of revising to better suit the needs of our Nunavummiut harvesters. To understand where changes need to be made, my department conducted a survey of harvesters, and representatives from the RWOs and HTOs, NTI and our own Wildlife Officers.

-----
Harvesters told us that our programs helped them, but that the Government of Nunavut should consider changes. We were provided with a number of excellent ideas about what these changes to our harvesters' support policies could be:
*************** 
angunasuktinut uqaujjaulauqtugut tamakkua ikajuutivut ikajuqattarninginnik kisiani nunavut gavamangit isumaksaqsiurutiqaqujaujut asijjiutaujunnaqtunik.
-----
for example, many suggested support for training for hunters to ensure our young people can maintain the traditional way of life on the land for generations to come.
***************

-----
With limited government financial resources, we will need to make choices about what policies to keep, and what policies to abandon.

These choices will allow us to direct more funding to the current needs of our harvesters.

-----
To assist us with these decisions about which policies to keep and which to abandon, I have asked department officials, to organize a panel discussion in eight communities.

We will ask representatives from RWOs, Regional Wildlife Officers, Hunters' and Trappers' Associations and women's sewing groups to join my staff on this panel.

Mr. Speaker, I can only say what I said, it shows in the Hansard again, when the position is vacant we automatically try to fill that position, and we had that capability and capacity in the Department of Health and Social Services.

So in the case of nurses, we have a dedicated staff person who is continually trying to staff and if operational requirements in Igloolik dictate that we need 5 nurses, because I know that there are 4 there and I gave the member the names of the 4 nurses out there.

That is what I wanted to hear because it is no secret that crime is rising in our communities in Nunavut and most often it is crime that is determined by alcohol or drugs or family violence or whatever domestic disputes which are probably the most dangerous disputes in most communities all over Canada.

If the RCMP are going to renegotiate or they are going to ask for addition manpower for Nunavut Mr. Speaker I think, this is the question I am asking, but put at the end of that question, I think we owe it to the RCMP and citizens of Nunavut to give them adequate policing.

At the headquarters level they have been understaffed so they had the flexibility financially to determine how best to utilize the financial resources, so it has not been a real issue to this point but I believe the RCMP are reviewing what their requirements are.

The community constables in the past were called by-law officers so their main focus was shooting the odd stray dog and squealing on the odd speeder, but now we know like I said earlier that their roles are changing and that they have been taking upon themselves and the RCMP to provide additional responsibilities to themselves.

Those dollars are flowing to various communities based on community empowerment agreements or community transfer initiative agreements where communities have agreed with the departments of this government to take over services.

When we did community empowerment in our community over a five year period, there was lots of support from the central government in regards to training to bring the municipality up to a level that they could take over these responsibilities but there is also a training component built in with this and it worked out really well in our community.

It is in a departmental committee made up of the three major departments where our mandate ended up from the Bathurst Mandate to move that initiative ahead. If we look on page 7-12, in the main estimates you'll see there, community development funds, at 1.5 million.

In the Bathurst Mandate it does talk about that when those communities have developed those plans, that this government would then look at funding, the resources to allow the community to deliver on those particular areas they've undertaken to want to deliver on.

And that just ties in with the 3 million 685 thousand, that we're currently flowing through to communities that already have undertaken a form of empowerment. That's up a bit from last year because there's another one, I can't remember now whether it was Pond Inlet was one that we just recently signed off the paper work on and it's gone through transfer from that department to our department to be flowed through to the community.

At the present time, Sport North does have a very positive relationship, but because they run the lottery and they make about 2 million dollars off the Lotto sales within the GNWT.

-----
Now our minister has asked us and we are working with the advisory committee that the minister has to look at other ways that we could identify other funding sources for Sport Nunavut that would allow us to move it into an independent. But the general feeling was that as long as it was costing government in the neighbourhood of 2 million dollars that it would be better to keep it as a department within the government.

It's nice to know that but I think the people don't want to work for nothing. Anyhow I had to ask that question but you hit on a very good topic there's lottery revenue, gambling is a problem in most of our communities like there's bingo's every night, there's all sorts of various fund raising activities in our communities, for everything.

I know there's only a couple of outlets to buy lotto 649 tickets and scratch and wins and things like that, and I know there's some larger communities like my own Baker Lake, probably Arviat and few other communities that could probably do with some sort of a lottery terminal.

If it's going to generate revenue for sports and recreation because like what Mr. Iqaqrialu said and every time we turn around there's somebody in front of us looking for donations to go to play hockey here or volleyball there and various other activities. And a lot of the times the organizations do fundraise.

Because we understand, in a lot of communities, you cannot hold a general public meeting because there's a bingo that night sort of thing. So we're going to do an overall survey of those various issues and certainly lottery terminals is one area we will be looking at to see whether we want to do, as the members suggested or move to promote something like that.

Primarily Mr. Chairman the Informatics needs of Public Works are as a result partially of inadequate budgets that were initially given to the department. But in addition to that, and the fact that decentralization itself was accelerated to try and meet those demands, or expectations that the communities would require additional infrastructure to get those communities up and ready from the perspective of informatics requirements.

No, Mr. Chairman, that's not the case, as you know once you have the systems developed there's always an ongoing operating cost and maintenance cost and upgrading cost, so it's not as if it's a one time expenditure, because of ongoing requirements in maintenance, matters that require funding.

If members wanted it only in English then I am willing to provide that but in respect of all our colleagues I am just abiding by the standard practice of the House of having translated copies available so that all members are able to receive it at the same time.

-----
Now, I would say that, when all members always have the opportunity to address issues, I do not know if there is anything that is before the committee that is controversial that would require the Bill could be held up given the fact that, you know, it has gone through the regular members caucus and there were no major issues that I was aware of except for providing some additional detail which we have or just having translated in time to provide today.

So, again, it is up to the members but I would be, I guess, hesitant to just hold everything up because of, unless there is a major issue, that the members feel requires that it be dealt with.

I would say that we could have not spent a lot of this money but that would have meant that the longer the decentralized communities would not have the capabilities or staff that are in some of those decentralized communities now would not have the accessibility to the rest of the government.

Another point I guess should be made is this is not Public Works itself that's responsible in respect of not planning adequately, there are a lot of other departments involved that have needs sometimes that come up again during the course of the year.

There's one thing I don't understand, special warrants are often requested, if for example a hamlet is going to be short of money, why is it that Cabinet took out, for example the arena that's going to be built in Kimmirut and that's 500 thousand dollars, from a special warrant.

Well, I can't say, that's up to Public Works, I would think that we have to approve it before it goes to tender, now we're getting near the end of the fiscal year, so more than likely the tender would be out in time for the current summer sealift and construction of 2001, so the bulk of it would be done realistically, they're probably looking at 2002 for completion, now given the normal capital process.

Well, Mr. Chairman I couldn't agree to that, you know the process for getting the tender itself out, it's going to run past, I guess we're now in March 20th, 10 or 11 days away from the end of the fiscal year so the likelihood of having a tender out and completed by that time would almost be non-existent.

-----
Mr. Speaker, Revenue Canada last year for the first time opened up their office here in Nunavut, and they set it up, Mr. Speaker, and allowed for the first time, Inuit language capabilities. Mr. Speaker, it's still not enough, today Mr. Speaker, I will be sending another letter to the Federal Minister, to our MP Nancy Karetak-Lindell, as well as Senator Willie Adams, to again to impress on the federal government the importance of having these forms translated into Inuktitut.
***************

-----
Mr. Speaker, in my correspondence and conversation with the Honourable Martin Kaoshaow, Mr. Kaoshaow stated that one of the concerns that they had was the ability to have the legal text of the income tax forms translated, and who would authorize that.
*************** 
uqaqtii, titirarvigivaktugu ammalu uqaqatigivaktugu ministaujuq matin kausau, qausau uqalaurmat ilanga isumaaluginiraqtuniuk tamakkua maligatigut malillugit inuktitungaliqtitaujunnaraluarmangaata tatatiriali inkamtaksimut inuktitut, ammalu kinakkunnit angiqtaugajarmangaata, taimali ministaujuq uqautililauqpara taiksumani titirarvigillugu uqaqti, ikajuqtuqtaulluta kanataup gavamakkunginnit nunavut saqqilaursimangmat, tamakkua maligalimaavut uqaqti, maligaujut inuktituungammata ammalu akaunngiliurutitaqaqpak kanataup gavamakkunginnit saqqitauninginnut tatatirialiit inuktitut, taikkua ikajurajaqpallaijavut nunavut gavamakkunginnit, tamakkua inuit ajunnginningillu pijunnaqtutigut tavvannga gavamakkunnit.
-----
So I said to the minister at that time in writing then indeed Mr. Speaker, with the support of the federal government in setting up Nunavut, all of our legislation Mr. Speaker, legislation and law is in Inuktitut and if there is a problem with the federal government bringing the forms forward in Inuktitut, I think we could be giving them assistance from the Government of Nunavut, where we actually have those people and that ability in this Government.

I think the driving force, one of the driving forces behind that whole thing was the former commissioner and now, private citizen, but he was always there to listen to the people and I think he was instrumental in making sure that when Nunavut was created that there was no risk and also in dividing up the boundary lines.

In this coming fiscal year Mr. Speaker, I do not believe that we put it back in because of the low uptake from the previous year. But I will just to make sure, check with the responsible minister who I believe may be myself, Mr. Speaker, and find out if that is the case and if not and there is a required need we can certainly try to be flexible in trying to address that issue.

As you know, every dispensing facility, before you stick the nozzle into the gas tank or oil tank, has the meter behind it.

It used to be that the meter was installed and the meter was working regardless of whether is -40 or +20.
***************

-----
It was indicating the same quantity of the fuel.

-----
Now with the temperature-compensating meter, the meter will take into effect the outside temperature and actually the temperature of the fuel and then properly distribute it.
*************** 
taimali tukiqaqpuq taikkua ukturutaujut aturlugit, pitittijunnarniaqtuq taimannalluamik, ikkinnaqtualugaluaqpat.
-----
So what that means is using the ordinary meter, it will give you same amount, regardless of the temperature.
*************** 
kisianili surratanngittumik uuktutiqarluni, pijumajarnik pigajaqputik.
-----
But with the compensating meter, you are automatically compensated for the temperature.

-----
So from that point, the purchaser who buys the fuel is getting exactly one litre or gallon or whatever he is getting from that point and therefore, we're minimizing the losses which have been incurred for the last number of years.
*************** 
anginirsajjummik maliktugu ikkirnarninga.

Basically, giving more fuel than is one litre from that point based on the temperature.

In the Government of the Northwest Territories and the federal government and now the Nunavut Government, we have seen a lot of the management of different departments, especially Public Works, historically, not necessarily this department and this department's personnel.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. The government has a staff housing allocation policy in place and a part of the policy is a rental rate, which the rent is collected per units, it's based on the square meters or square feet and it's been inherited from the GNWT.

We recognize that this is not ideal for the reason that rent is the same, like, under the new unit or the older unit disregarding the quality.

However, especially in the past two years, through your employment drive for aboriginal people in Nunavut, and your target of 84% down the road, that you have been successful enough to realize that these rental systems has, not on purpose, but has discouraged people from taking training and paying their high rent for living in government staff housing in comparison to public housing.

So I guess what I am asking the government, is there any way to recognize that there is a need for public housing for those who can find jobs and are already in public housing and those government staff members who should not be penalized on their rental scale, wanting to work.

-----
The staff housing rent scale, I guess is the one I am asking about because I know there are some disparities in some of the staff housing that is available. If you take a look from anywhere like in town here, you have something in the High Rise, you know, an apartment to White Row that's, some older type units as opposed to the new Urbco units or NCC units up the hill.

I've had concerns raised to me by individuals living in those things that they, it isn't right that they're living in something that's 30 years old and paying the same rate as someone that's living in something that's brand new.

The 5.8 million, which Mr. Arvaluk was referring to, was for additional expenditures for this fiscal year. The 11 million is our best estimate and providing the operations of the informatics remains the way it is, we strongly believe that we can live with that number.

The commission rates vary from community to community. One of the factors that the cost varies from community to community is the number of assets that's required to provide a service like garaging, the number of vehicles and also the other fact that we try to take into consideration is the amount of fuel volumes that are sold in each community.

-----
Okay, so in this case, in my plain language, is that purely a payment to the contractor after the service is done and this is what you know that in the beginning of the year that you know that you will pay him approximately at the end of the year.

Unfortunately, it's not as simple as that process because what happens with those private contractors, when we buy the fuel and we turn it over to and sell it back to the private contractor.

In other words, if you sell the fuel to this contractor and if you tell the contractor here's how much you are going to sell it for in Resolute Bay for example, if we decide, his operating costs include a brand new truck and one building and other things that requires him to operate that contract, then you give him 1.173 million dollars.

I guess what I'm trying to explain to the member is the fact that those three communities operate outside, there's a contract between the Government of Nunavut and private contractors for them to operate the facilities without intervention from the government with the conditions.

Also in the contract it states that they can recover their inventory carrying costs, they can recover their financing costs, they can recover the costs for them to store the vehicle, the cost for them to hire personnel to live.

But those are the costs that are written in the contract and so each year when their cost if their costs component exceeds, exceeds the retail price then they, we have to subsidize them.

Basically the way the contracts are structured is that when they were originally signed, the contractor, there was a commission rate established, that commission rate is set, so that covers their operations and maintenance.

-----
So the only thing that really effects the price of the subsidy to the private operators is the price of fuel and the transportation cost that more protects the price the subsidy change each year on the international markets and inventory carrying costs and the financing costs.

The rest of these costs like a vehicle financing cost, all that is tied into a commission rate that was fixed at the time the contracts were signed.

We know already that economic growth and diversification in Nunavut will require an investment in infrastructure to catch up with the rest of Canada, so to advance this dialogue, we will be releasing a document next month called "The Road to Canada - Opportunities for Public Investment in the New Nunavut Economy".

This funding allowed them to leverage another 250 thousand dollars for arts and crafts projects from other programs that, we as government, cannot access.

Mr. Chairman, in his budget speech the Minister of Finance noted that our potential for natural resource development was impressive, although still largely untapped. In 2001/2002 the Department of Sustainable Development's investment in uncovering our mineral wealth will continue through our partnership with the Canada/Nunavut Geoscience Centre, for which we have set aside 450 thousand dollars, and through the Nunavut Prospectors Program, for which we have set aside 150 thousand dollars.

In its review of the department's budget estimates for 2001-2002, the committee stressed the need for increased support for Nunavut's artists. Many Nunavummiut are struggling to make a living through their art and they are not getting the assistance they need.

In the minister's opening remarks on page three, he stated that made in Nunavut economic initiatives is what they want to do.

The reason why is, Mr. Chairman, is that the people that have computers, they're not using television as much as they did before but they are using internet services more in Nunavut.

Another item that I had wanted to mention on page 5 in the middle, the Fur Pricing Program and Community Harvesters Assistance Program. The minister stated that they will be working with Nunavut Tunngavik and I am happy to see that the price program is a very good program because there's a lot of people that have trapped white fox, about 3 thousand this year, in Coral Harbour up to about 50 dollars each.

In a month, one person gets about 200 hundred white foxes in Coral Harbour and this income support is very good for the people to be self reliant and not try to get money from the government.

So, for that reason that money, I think was about 29 million for the social assistance payments would probably decline when people start to try and make money on their own whether it be through hunting or through trapping foxes.

We would expect that program would be running especially for tourists that come to the north to take pictures and to go see the scenery and it will put more money into the communities when those tourists start coming into the communities.

My fourth comment that I would like to bring out is, there are quite a number of communities that are given heavy-duty sewing machines but I do not know whether these women are trained on how to operate these heavy-duty sewing machines. Of course, they are very expensive and they are not being utilized because the women are not trained in operating these machineries.

They completely brought down the economic opportunities that we could have gained because they have fish farms and fox farms and so on established down south.

-----
Using my community as an example, Clyde River and Broughton Island, both have an abundance of polar bear and the policies have been changed where you can harvest male bears and not females.

-----
How it has affected me is that if we should harvest too many male bears, the reproduction would slow down because of course the large mammals reproduce very slowly and if there's too few male bears, the reproduction might slow down.

My area is a breeding ground for the polar bears and sometimes it gets quite dangerous because sometimes they go right into the community.

They have human behaviours, and when they're not mentally stable, after they've been put to sleep, they get very skinny and their behaviour becomes erratic.

The fish migratory patterns, they migrate very far and they also go to different lakes and because of that, some of the lakes seem to have less fish than before because of course they have migrated to another lake.

I'd like to champion the cause of the little guys like Mr. Arvaluk is, the seal skins, I brought this up last year and I said that you know, if we can sell more then that all falls in together with what we are trying to do up here. For most traditional economies, there still has to be more emphasis, and I have to reiterate this and this is the second time that I have said this in two years, that the sealing industry has taken a large hit but the sealing industry up here is totally different than what it is in southern Canada and other places.

So, I'm hoping I'm not going to beat this one much longer and that you got the message that this time next year if the fur industry keeps where it's going that we could look at this and say yeah, we bought four hundred seal skins this year or we subsidized four hundred.

Mr. Speaker, in the past two years we have made great strides in revitalizing the sealing economy in Nunavut. This is a program where, with relatively modest investments from our government over the past two years, we have seen a significant resurgence in support for the Nunavut sealing industry.

At the national and international level, our main challenge has been raising the public's awareness of the new Territory of Nunavut, our lifestyle, our history in sealing, and the principles that govern our seal hunt - sustainable use, humane harvesting, and use of the whole animal.

The settlement of the Nunavut Land Claims Agreement from the federal government includes a transfer of 1.17 billion to more than 22 thousand Nunavummiut in exchange for Crown title to their ancestral land.

-----
The GN and also the Canadian Government have different programs to assist residents that seem to be quite simple to apply to for the general public, but are nearly impossible if it is written in a language you don't understand.
***************

-----
For example, there are quite a few problems in dealing with documents for heavy equipment operators.

-----
Things like drivers licenses, heavy equipment operator certificate applications and all those other forms that have to be filled out are very difficult for ordinary citizens to fill out, especially when they are only in English which some can't read well.

-----
When I was in Igloolik I was told they had to go fill out a form, then bring it to the RCMP and then they have to fill another form in another department in order to go around to try and acquire, for example, the fuel subsidy program. That is one of the things I want to bring to your attention today.

-----
Under the same topic that it's very difficult to get coverage by traditional insurance companies with those kinds of disaster, you know, it is a lot easier to get forest fire coverage in Nunavut than to get one for the floe edge.
*************** 
pijjutigillugu iliqqusiqtigut nalliukkumaaqaqtittijiit atuagarnut nalliukkumaaqsisimagajusuungunngimmata taimaittunut, taima, tiliuriarajaqtakka gavamakkut aaqqissiqulugit ilisarijauqulugit makua pirrurluaqigutauvattut sinaaniugaluaqqat, kisutuinnait pirrurluaqigutaujunnaqtut angunasuttuqaqtillugu aullaqsimanituinnaungittumi. ammalu akinga uuttuutigilugu, inuk, aquttiarunnariaqarngat aturiakutaami ammalu ippigusuttianngiruluujanngilluni nalliukkumaaqtaarumatuaqqat piujualummik qaujimajusi, taimaittunik.
-----
Because traditional insurance companies usually don't have policy coverage under these circumstances, I would encourage the government to come up with some kind of recognition of what the natural disasters are whether floe edge, anything that could happen on a traditional hunting method not expedition type things.
***************

So with that you probably can distribute the responsibilities for different communities like Mr. Iqaqrialu is saying by giving them grants and contributions for that coverage.

-----
Because this, this disaster compensation is a start but it probably will require better recognition of the hunters equipment importance, like GN recognizes their buildings all of them are covered Nunavut-wide under the umbrella coverage. So I think that kind of recognition would really help to say that yeah, we are using Inuit Qaujimajatuqangit or at least having a good consideration for Nunavummiut with all the things we do as a government.

***************

The Board administers the Legal Aid program ensuring that legal representation is provided for people who require it, and cannot afford to hire a lawyer themselves.
***************

Although the Legal Services Board is independent in making its decisions, its funding is all from government.
***************

(interpretation ends) When the Nunavut Legal Services Board took over last July from the Government of the Northwest Territories, we immediately became aware of some shortcomings in the budget allocation.

There were three concerns:

the overall expenditures related to services in Nunavut were projected to be higher than in our allocated budget;

there had also been no increase to fees paid to lawyers for some time, and the fees were structured in a way that they did not encourage lawyers to be located within Nunavut;

-----
and a third and smaller item was that the previous Board had approved a small increase in the contribution to the Maliganik Tukisiniakvik clinic for Baffin, which required an adjustment to the contribution funding under the Board.
*************** 
takkua pingasut isumalutaumaurtut aqigiarsimalirtut kisaujannik ilaartaunikut $350,000 sanirvaiviulutik takkua maligalirijit katimajingit.

We have added some new money here, and have also re-allocated some from elsewhere in the department, to support the creation of two new positions.

One of the new positions is an additional legal counsel position, which is needed to make sure that ministers and departments of the Nunavut Government have access to legal advice as they operate government programs and implement changes to reflect the priorities of Nunavut.

The single level trial court is different from the court structure elsewhere in Canada, where there are two separate levels of court which are each limited in the matters that are brought before them.

-----
Although we are constantly strengthening the JP program with a view to having more local persons trained to hear cases within their own communities and own language, this is a gradual process, and the circuits of the Nunavut Court of Justice are a fundamental part of our court system.

Correctional centres are overcrowded, we're still continuing to send inmates south, I don't think they're being looked after in the south the way that they should be, they're throwing them in general population and I don't really think there's too many programs that are helping them.

The inmates that I see coming back to the community from the southern institutions, they really haven't learned anything and I don't know if the rehabilitation has been good to them. They don't seem like anything's really happened to them to rehabilitate them, I think they're just being warehoused, and I'm hoping that down the road, when we're in a better fiscal situation that we'll build some correctional facilities up here.

-----
During the workshop, special attention was given to the unique situation of Nunavut including the small population in many scattered communities and how to incorporate Inuit Qaujimajatuqangit into Nunavut Human Rights Act. Participants also discussed the terminology that is used to describe human rights, and suggested that the term "Makimatjutiit" would be more appropriate than "Inuit Pijunnautingit".
***************

-----
Makimatjutiit refers to standing up within your rights. (interpretation ends) Mr. Speaker, the workshop participants also made it very clear that however we structure the Nunavut Human Rights Legislation, that the process should be efficient, less time consuming than other jurisdictions in Canada and most of all be user friendly, and as much as possible, not be intimidating.

In closing, Mr. Speaker, I would like to quote Peter Kanayuk from Pangnirtung who was one of the participants, he said and I quote "I am very pleased to be part of this process to develop human rights legislation, to us this is the reality of the Nunavut dream".

First of all Mr. Speaker, let's be clear.

The member has received a written response to his written question.

-----
The member says that prior to April 1 1999, there were more visits. Mr. Speaker, I can't comment on how many visits were there before April 1, 1999, I was not the health minister before April 1, 1999.
***************

-----
What I can say, Mr. Speaker, is that we are trying to increase all dental services in Nunavut and one of those keys Mr. Speaker, as I just said, the member knows that it's public knowledge, is the fee schedule that is in place.
***************

-----
We cannot attract dentists because those contracts, those salaries, those fees are paid directly through an agreement with negotiations with the federal government through NIHB program.

Now what we have been able to do Mr. Speaker, in negotiations is get about another million dollars on travel which we haven't had before, paid for by NIHB, for out of territory travel.

-----
I'm the MLA in Baker Lake and when my constituents come to me and say the services we are getting now are not as good as what it was then, that's why I ask written questions in the House because this is the kind of rambling I get from the minister when I stand up and ask an oral question.

-----
Will the minister commit to revisiting the dental visits to Baker Lake and I know what I'm talking about because if you send a dentist in every second week rather than send them in for a month at a time they may be able to do their work better.

-----
Mr. Speaker, that's an excellent question from the member. I should point out that the 80 million dollars mentioned in the numbers from the minister's statement, the 80 million dollars is for the total allowance by the federal government under the Canadian Health Infrastructure Program or CHIP program.
***************

Mr. Speaker, the amount of money that's been allocated, and this is an excellent and a good news story, of 3.7 million dollars is a considerable amount of money for us.

It triples the amounts of money we had budgeted, almost quadruples the amounts of money we had budgeted in our budget for telehealth.

In our proposal we're asking and we're saying that with this extra money we'll be able to connect more communities to the IIU network as well as developing the telehealth strategy and training program in partnership with our good colleague Minister Kilabuk and Arctic College on training as well as allowing for that under the IIU network.

So the plan would be, the member is correct, to hook up more communities whether that be Clyde or so on depending on where they are right now with their infrastructure and then they will be able to move forward to broaden that infrastructure.

They can have upgrading and they do upgrading at Arctic College for their adult education, perhaps we could use adult education for Inuit culture because some of the students weren't taught syllabics and don't know how to read and write.

I think the elders in Nunavut are increasing because in the past we had a high mortality rate and we have to as Inuit, our culture was not all good, but we should collect the best parts of our culture and integrate them into our government system.

But when we were young people, we were not involved in meetings such as this and we now involve the youth at various levels of meetings because young people in these times, we need to teach them all these things.

First of all, I'd like to say that the Qallunaaq culture has everything in written form and I just wanted to point that out first of all.

When we became the Nunavut government we kept stressing that Inuit Qaujimajatuqangit had to be utilized and it has to be brought out because there's nothing really very visual and we need to bring it out.
***************

If we don't bring it out ourselves, if we don't take on that responsibility nobody else is going to teach us Inuit culture and we have to take that responsibility to bring that out.

But when we start dealing with this issue I don't know where but in the past we've lost part of our culture and traditions, which deteriorated our lifestyle and our way of life.

For that reason we have seen so many suicides, completed suicides and also various social problems arise from being assimilated into a different culture and we're now starting to use a different culture and we have seen problems in the past.

In those days we did not have anything in written form the only way that Inuit people would find out about something in the north is through rituals of shamanism.

All I am saying to the member is that before this government, your government, the member's government and our government, the people of Nunavut's government, before they pay out money, we pay out any money, should we be doing, is it our responsibility for something that happened 30 years ago.

So if we were to have our insurance reserve fund not up to the 10 million dollar limit that we would want, in case of a loss, then we would obviously have to find the necessary funds through a supplementary appropriation or a special warrant depending on the circumstances.

So what if, based on these financing or anything like that are there any additional costs incurred, is it the Government of Nunavut that negotiates with the landlord or would it be the federal government that would do that.

I would say that it is hard to judge or gauge the need, because as you know if you wanted to spend, you could develop the most elaborate systems on any program that you want, and of course there is the associated operating and maintenance costs after that.

Mr. Chairman, the release last week of the latest figures on Government of Nunavut staffing across Nunavut has some good news, and some reasons for concern.

-----
The December figures indicate that 79% of a total of 2,789 positions were filled. While close to 200 people have been hired during the time, it would appear that it will still take a number of years to fill all of the vacant positions at the current rate of hiring.

-----
As a first step, it would be useful for the government to also produce employment figures that indicate where men and women fit within the public service, as these are not readily apparent in the information published to date, and in the absence of a departmental annual report on the public service.

Mr. Chairman, members of the committee have noted the sad reality that while unemployment in our communities is high, the government cannot find sufficient numbers of people competent to do the job.

-----
The department's business plan is forthright in acknowledging that long-term solutions lie in the area of education, but the committee continues to feel that every effort should be made for the department to work with partners in the area of training and in eliminating artificial barriers to employment for Nunavummiut who can do the job.

Although you have the department's 18.4 million dollars, itemizing what it is for, with the two pages opening remarks, 1 and a half page opening remarks, it doesn't say very much about the principles and the ultimate goals of the government are.

-----
When some of us worked for the government in the early 70's and still with the creation of Nunavut several years ago, there has been a very heavy emphasis on the divisions' management to have very strong roles in deciding who should work for that division or how the employees in the lower ranks are to be treated.

-----
I am very happy that the minister is announcing that the Inuit employees who are coming into the government for the first time or in the last two years will have access to talk to the labour relations people at least to talk about I don't like my boss or my working conditions are poor.

Because when we had the division management in the past under the GNWT, it was extremely difficult to go to anyone even if there was unfair treatment of those particular employees.

In other words, do you have consideration for government employees who have children who are living in the multiplex accommodations, that they have no direct access to outside for example, most of them are usually surrounded by a whole lot of vehicles and the general population of apartment buildings.

I'm sure I'm not only talking about Iqaluit, Rankin Inlet and Cambridge Bay but maybe somewhere else.

I think there should be recognition of those who were hired from the community who have to move Iqaluit, Rankin Inlet or Cambridge Bay who are not used to living with their children in a multiplex accommodation.
***************

-----
But there's one quick note and I'd like to see, is that in order to have recruitment and retention of the public service, you have to recognize that they have to have access to your department's personnel in order to complain about if they have not been fairly treated by their other departments or by other divisions of the different departments.
***************

When they're recruiting staff, it's good to see your comments, staff within Nunavut government are being hired.

-----
Someone in Kugluktuk mentioned to me so that the future in Nunavut improves, whenever they are looking for staff within Nunavut, recruiting staff, people have to do an interview from Iqaluit and travel onto Rankin Inlet, Cambridge Bay, and Kugluktuk.
*************** 
kangil&inirmu, iqaluttuuttiamu, quluqtuumu.

First, it's in Kugluktuk when they are recruiting staff.

They come to Cambridge Bay and Iqaluit to interview potential staff, recruiters for the Nunavut government.

For instance, so it's clear, there needs to be in the interview process someone who speaks Innuinaqtut, Inuktitut to do the interview.
***************

-----
When you think of this, this is good for the future.

Someone told me, I believe a couple of people told, they weren't too happy with the people that did the interviews.
***************

So that it's rectified, I want to mention this to you.
***************

Those that do the interview, because the dialects are different, sometimes there may be misunderstandings when interviews are being done.
***************

For instance in Kugluktuk, because he couldn't understand the person doing the interview, the interviewer said I can't understand you, speak in English.
***************

-----
That person was not very happy with that situation when he went up for an interview because that was a comment from the interviewer.
***************

Or the person thought maybe I am not able to speak Inuktitut fluently.

Maybe I won't be able to get this position.

-----
I for one would like to see the bright side sometimes and I look at this territory that has been created in such a short time and where we are with the civil service and how many people are involved in it right now. We have over 12 thousand students in the education system and we are worried about a couple of hundred civil service positions that aren't filled right now.

To me I know there is a plan in place and that the young people out there are getting better educated and there is going to be pressure on the civil service in the next 5-10 years for the government to create more civil service jobs.

There is a plan in place and I know whoever is going to be sitting in these seats in the next ten, fifteen years are going to make sure that the civil service and the Minister responsible for Human Resources, whoever that is over the next fifteen to twenty years, is going to make sure that the Inuit Employment Plan is followed.

But going back, when we took over April 1, 1999 there were millions and millions of dollars that organizations had and it was their mandate to train Inuit people for the civil service.

But like I'm saying, I'm looking for the future and the 12 thousand students that are enrolled in school today that will hopefully, if they want to become civil servants, are going to have the opportunity because there's a plan in place.
***************

-----
But I look around at the private companies in Nunavut today, I think somebody should be forcing them to start looking at an Inuit Employment Plans, because everywhere I go I see more southerners in their businesses than northerners.
***************

So all that I'm going to say today, and like I said I don't expect an answer or something I just want to philosophize, keep up the good work and hopefully in ten or fifteen years you will have a civil service that reflects the population.

Then maybe the private sector companies in this territory will take some time to invest in Nunavut employees so they won't have to fly in their southern transient work force.

Mr. Chairman here it indicates that it's this branch of the department that looks after initiatives related to Article 23 of the land claims agreement and as I indicated in my opening comments, the total number of beneficiaries that have been hired has gone up over the last report, in March I believe, or June.

-----
But some of the early indications, as I said in the past overall in trying to meet staffing recruitments is some of the competition from other major employers in Nunavut. The skill levels may not necessarily be there amongst all the beneficiaries as a whole across Nunavut and some of the education levels and those are some of the things we are encountering that we are trying to eliminate more in the longer term.

Before that person knew there was such personnel in human resources to deal with those kinds of stress, due to a number of problems, like, maybe lack of babysitting, or reliable babysitting or the cost of living etc. Is there help that can be given to them respecting what other easier avenues they can use to have a better lifestyle or enjoyment of employment more.

Mr. Chairman, a lot would depend on the circumstances. But obviously you know, each department I'm sure would have individuals that could counsel or at least, speak to the employees that may have problems and make recommendations of where they might need some assistance if it's required whether it's through, formally through, the process that's outlined as I said, labour relations or the workplace wellness counselling program or even other departments like Health and Social Services that may have some programs for individuals to offer assistance.

But Mr. Speaker, I would like to say that the community radios are extremely important and essential, especially when there is a search and rescue going on because they use the radio to keep the community informed about what is happening.

-----
Even when you're working with southerners, or if your spouse is white or non-Native, sometimes Inuit might say qablunaaruluit, qablunaaruluk, and a non-Aboriginal might not mind hearing that, not knowing what it means.
*************** 
kisianili qallunaaq uqarniqpat imaak inuruluit, inuk akaqsarajanngilaq.
-----
But if a white person were to say Inuruluit, the Inuk person would be offended.

-----
But there are some words that are used in the Inuktitut language that are unwelcoming.

Sometimes we say certain words and unintentionally hurt another person, and I truly believe we need to be more sensitive about what we say as Inuit.

-----
The proposed bill will provide for a number of essential authorities that are required before the Nunavut Power Corporation can effectively and legally be the power provider in Nunavut on April 1, 2001.
*************** 
sivulirmik, taanna maligaksaq nalunairutiniarmat piqujatigut tunijauniartilugit taakkua nunavuumi uummaqutilirijikkut aulatangit nunavumut.

First, the proposed bill confirms the legal transfer of all NTPC assets located in Nunavut, to the Nunavut Power Corporation.
*************** 
tamakkua piqutilimaangit nunavumi uummaqutilirijikkut aulataujunnaquplugit, piqujatiguutsiarlutik pigijaulutiklu nunavumi uummaqusirijikkunnut.

This ensures that all the assets that NPC requires in order to operate, legally belong to NPC.

Agreement in principle is expected before April 1st, but there is no guarantee that all will be completed before NPC takes over responsibility for power generation and distribution in Nunavut.

-----
Secondly, Mr. Chairman, the proposed bill allows NPC to assume responsibility for any contractual arrangements between NTPC and the customer base in Nunavut. Essentially, this gives NPC the legal authority to bill customers and receive the revenues generated as a result.
*************** 
pingajuat, iksivautaaq, taanna maligaksaq pitjutiqarpuq nunavumi uummaqusirijikkut pijunnautiqalirniarmata maliklugit taakkua angiutausimajut akunngani uummaqusirijikkut amma nunaliit nunavumi.
-----
Thirdly, Mr. Chairman, the proposed bill allows NPC to assume the rights and responsibilities under any franchise agreements between NTPC and Municipalities in Nunavut.
*************** 
aulatauninganut, nunavumi uummaqusirijikkut aulatsijunnalirlutik nunalinik angiutiujuq maliktauluni.
-----
In effect Mr. Chairman, it allows NPC to operate in the communities where there is a franchise agreement in place.

-----
Finally, Mr. Chairman, the proposed bill provides notice to the legal registries in Nunavut, that registered assets in the name of NTPC may be changed to reflect NPC as the legal owners, and that there will be no fees or costs to NPC associated with the change in ownership.
*************** 
taanna iksivautaaq, nainnarsugu uqausirivara taanna piqujaunialirtuq tamatumunga, apiqutiksaqarusi apirijunnarniarpusi qanutuinnaq.

Mr. Chairman, this is a very brief summary of the provisions contained in the bill, and I look forward to any questions or discussions that the Committee may have.

Mr. Chairman, I thank the minister for his opening remarks and indeed, it sounds like he didn't have very much sleep last night, I don't know if he is nervous about today or what, but I sure hope that he gets well soon.

-----
Mr. Chairman, the Standing Committee on Government Operations and Services had the opportunity as the minister indicated to meet with him and his staff to review Bill 6, which was introduced earlier this week.

-----
Members accept the government's explanation that this piece of legislation has been introduced as a precautionary measure in the event that negotiations on the division of assets and liabilities do not result in an agreement prior to the birth of the Nunavut Power Corporation on April 1.
***************

-----
While it is unfortunate that the parties involved have not been able to reach agreement, members recognize the need to ensure that the start-up of the Power Corporation proceed as smoothly as possible.

-----
The Standing Committee recognizes that the provisions of the legislation, which allow the minister to make orders related to the transfer of assets, may never actually be acted upon.

-----
However, in the event that it does become necessary for the minister to exercise powers under this Act, the Committee is of the view that the government has a responsibility to keep all Members of the Legislative Assembly informed in a timely manner of any actions he takes in this area, as well as progress in the negotiations as a whole.

-----
Finally, Mr. Chairman, I would draw the attention of members to section 8 of the Bill, which permits the Commissioner to repeal the Act or any provision of it.
***************

While the Committee understands that this is not necessarily a unique provision, neither is it a routine one.

Normally, and appropriately, it is the legislature itself that repeals Acts or parts of Acts that it previously passed.

The Standing Committee would recommend against this sort of provision being included as a routine matter in future pieces of legislation introduced by this government.

Today, it seems like the people of Nunavut are not getting attention from the medical personnel and if they're well, they don't get to see a medical person for 6-7 years and I believe I'm quite accurate in making those statements.
*************** 
uqausirivara pijjutigillugu amisuuluarmata inuit aanniaqaliqtut amma asinginni aannianaqtuni qanuilijaksautiangittuni.

The reason why I'm saying is that there are too many people out there who have cancer and other diseases that you can't do much about.

I believe that's because they don't get annual checkups.

I'm making those comments because I believe that all people of Nunavut should at least get annual checkups or have wellness clinics to make sure that they get diagnosed right at the beginning or at least lower the number of people who get cancer and stuff like that.

We spend millions of dollars on people who are diagnosed too late with cancer and they have to go back and forth from their community to larger centres or to southern institutions for checkups and radiation and so on.

Maybe the reason why we have a severe shortage of nurses is because of the lack of dollars that are allocated for the medical personnel.

They even have to look for nurses internationally because they don't want to go up north.

I think we should increase the salary that is being paid to the nurses and we should increase the number of nursing staff that we have so that there is earlier diagnoses and better medical care for the residents of Nunavut.

There are not enough doctors in the Kitikmeot region.

For example, there's one doctor that's there and there's over six thousand total population in the Kitikmeot.

In the south, one doctor, the ratio is one doctor per thousand.

But seven thousand for one doctor is way too much.
***************

Because we don't have enough doctors, and because we don't have enough nurses, there is late diagnosis of diseases.

For example, a woman might be waiting for her appointment for the visiting doctor.

She's told that her appointment is for January 20 and that she'll be going down to Yellowknife to meet with the doctor but if there's a blizzard and the plane can't come in, her appointment then is deferred maybe to March, a couple of months later.
***************

That's one of the problem areas we have where the appointments keep getting deferred because there was a blizzard on that one particular day, the plane can't land for that one day, so that patient has to wait for another two or three months for her next appointment.

The Department of Health and Social Services doesn't have policies yet that are relevant to the needs of the population of Nunavut and then right underneath it says again the same thing.

I think due to the minister not making it clear in these bullets number 4 and 5 it doesn't say here what you mean by relevant to the needs and flexible, culturally sensitive programs to develop these policies.

Even when we're looking at this and we're looking at the number, the amount of dollars that we're going to use, the people out there, the hospital, the nurses, the boarding homes and the patients who utilize these services and when you look at these it's just paying lip service.

It's not written in the business plans either, so what we're hoping to see is that, and when these come back, we'll have to find out exactly what it means and how it will affect the patients that utilize these services and again, Mr. Chairman, I'm running out of time.

The same person who is protecting the children is asked to do a court report for the offender.

Those are very difficult and conflicting situations.

For example, if you could do good family violence work in the community, if you can prevent it, a lot of the money that went to health wouldn't need to be there because people would not have to be medivaced out from getting beat up.

In years past, the patients who have been waiting for tests or diagnosis of their illnesses have lost out on the treatment that could have been crucial to their lives, and you know, we have lost many loved ones because the nurses or the medical field, the lack of doctors are not there to diagnose these illnesses.

Mr. Chairman, when we go through a difficult time in life and we suffer trauma or other difficult times, then it is painful to see a loved one who is going through an illness and it is hard when a person, when you see a loved one deteriorate rapidly before your very eyes.

Mr. Chairman that's a very interesting question.
*************** 
qaujimajummariunngilanga qummuattitausimajut missaanut kisiani uqarunnaqpunga iksivautaaq, nunalilimaat nunavummi qummuattitausimajunik aturunnaqput.
-----
I think I'm not a technical person when it comes to satellites and so on but what I can say to you Mr. Chairman is that every community in Nunavut has the ability to have access to a satellite.
*************** 
taimaimmat, uqausiqaqtilluta inuit ikajurusingit ungasittukkuurutinik uqausiqaqpugut utiasuunik, suurlu aanniajumik qaujiniq kisumit aanniajjutiqarmangaaq, aaqqittausimajumut mittimatalimmut qummuattitausimajukkut amma mittimatalimmut sivanirlutik.
-----
So when we are talking about telehealth what we are talking about having the receptor, let's say when you're calling them for an example where we have a system set up. In Pond Inlet we have a system, when the cardiologist in the Baffin hospital in Iqaluit needs to be able to do a diagnosis, the system is uplinked from Pond Inlet by satellite and then dialled to Pond Inlet.
*************** 
tainna jalunaikkutiguutuinnariaqaqpuq, suurlu, pillugu ajunngippata maannattautigit tamannalu ilagilluniuk akingata.
-----
The carrier itself may go through Yellowknife, for example, because they have the infrastructure abilities there right now and that's part of the cost.
*************** 
asingit akiujut iksivautaaq, atuqtuarniuvut qummuattitausimajukkut tujuijunnaqullugit.
-----
The other cost Mr. Chairman, is renting time on the satellite to be able to provide the signal.
***************

So a detriment or a deterrent is not on the side of the community, but that's a good point that the member was making from the high arctic.

I think you remember, sorry, that I called your office from Coral Harbour because two seniors were missed out because they did not properly meet the appointment from the dentist for denturer.

Secondly, what happens when the Nunavut population continues to grow, will the cap stay at 10 million when your costs go up to maybe 100 million dollars down the road. We don't really have time right now because we are all homesick but can the minister sometime, give us a briefing in the briefing room so that we could have an unbiased, non-political discussion on where we are going with our health programs.

Mr. Chairman, the constitutional challenge or charter challenge being brought forward by Mr. Ward out of Edmonton who is an Inuk who was adopted into the south and is a lawyer, I believe he's the first Inuk lawyer.

You know, each patient, each person reacts differently to different drugs and I think that's taken into consideration when prescribing. there are cases where you may have a normal drug that's prescribed to an individual for a certain reason that they didn't want to give this one that is funded under the program because of the side effects and when they give the individual another one, that isn't covered.

I think some work should be done or there should be consultations done with the physicians and the pharmacists to take a look at any drug that may have come off the plan or has the potential of coming off. We should look at ways of keeping and ensuring that those types of things are covered because as it is right now some people have to pay for prescriptions.

I think one of the main reasons that you don't hear much about it is because a lot of people don't know and just take for granted what they are given from the pharmacists.

I have a big concern like the minister has indicated that these are things that we end up getting stuck with or else we end up having members of the public out there that aren't getting the attention they need because they can't afford it.

-----
If you need mental services for an example, if you are given a referral, through psychiatric counselling if you went down to Ottawa and you were living there for a year and needed psychiatric counselling and went to the Ottawa General Hospital, I'm sure the Ontario government wouldn't be billing their OHIP program they would be billing the federal government.

Most of the department's current research projects have arisen in direct response to concerns expressed by the communities about changes that they have observed in the wildlife populations they harvest. In particular, the projects on Peary caribou in the high arctic;

We also work with DIAND on the Northern Contaminants Program.

Mr. Speaker, I want to report to the House on the recent Nunavut Film Symposium, which was held here in Iqaluit, March 16-19.
***************

-----
Mr. Speaker, I don't know how many members had the opportunity like me to attend the showing of the Isuma Igloolik Productions feature film, called Atanarjuat during the film symposium over this past weekend. I understand it played to sold out audiences.
***************

-----
Atanarjuat is an outstanding artistic achievement, which will send a message to the world that Nunavut filmmakers can produce work of the highest standards even if they are Inuit. I think, too, Mr. Speaker, that a film like Atanarjuat delivers a powerful and positive message about Inuit, about the richness of our past, and our stories.
*************** 
ministaullunga piruqpaliajulirinirmut, isumaqaqpunga tarrijaliaq suurlu atanaaqjuatitut ikajummarippaktut takuksautittittiarnirmik inunnit nunavumiulimaanillu.

As the Minister responsible for economic development, I think a film like Atanarjuat contributes to a very positive image for Inuit and all Nunavummiut.
***************

We are all familiar with the achievements of IBC and Inuit Communications Systems Limited in Iqaluit. But at the film symposium we also learned of John Houston's recent production made in Cape Dorset, and of the work of Elisapee Karetak, in Arviat.

Mr. Speaker, it is not often that I make a members' statement and I will be asking unanimous consent from my colleagues.

Mr. Speaker, our consensus government is unique.

The NWT and our own Nunavut Legislature are the only two jurisdictions in North America or possibly the entire world where this type of governance is used.

It is my understanding that it is based on a model of traditional aboriginal governance, whereby leaders discuss issues and try to reach an agreement that all or a large majority think acceptable.
*************** 
ammalu suli ajjiunginnatta tamakkua maligaliuqtituinnait amisuunirsaummata ministaujunik gavamakkunnullit ilagijaujunik.

We are also unique in that the regular members of our legislature outnumber the cabinet or government members.

Again, this allows for significant input by regular members into all government processes, whether it be development of the budget, legislation or policies.

Sometimes there are issues such as the Cambridge Bay School Heritage Centre project in last year's budget that required significant debate right up until the last minute of the budget process, in which a compromise is reached to everyone's general satisfaction.

Mr. Speaker, although our consensus style of governance is unique, we also adopt many of the practices and customs of the British Parliamentary system, as there must be some rules and order in how we go about our business.

Mr. Speaker, another customary practice is in respect to the budget of the legislature itself and the method that the Financial Management Board and the legislature deal with its own budget.

I know there are a lot of people in Nunavut and when I was a Member of Parliament, the Alliance and Reform parties used to go against Nunavut and people would take our side because they feel sorry for us.

But, when I first started as a Member of Parliament I used to talk in Inuktitut and I told the Reform and the Block parties that it's very important that Inuit use their culture and their language. That we've had our language for many years and the English and the French languages have been here for only 500 years and the elders here weren't asked if Canada could take their land.

When the government came to Nunavut the staff came in and started working with the Inuit and there are different industries, the mining industry and we were told that it's very important that we accept the different industries.

They said it would benefit us, so, there's about 550 million dollars that we receive from the federal government and we ourselves pay for taxes and I think we need to train the people that don't believe in Nunavut that it's important, Nunavut is important and that they are the ones that came to Nunavut.

I spoke to an elder recently over the summer and he was very concerned that there should be an access road for the fishing spots in Rankin Inlet and it's very easy to make access roads because it's not a hilly place in the Kivalliq region, especially in Rankin Inlet.

Just before we begin Bill 3, I have an announcement to make. When I was the Chairperson of the committee of the whole, there was a point of privilege raised.

Ruling From the Chair
*************** 
maligaliurvingmut nilliutiqarumajunga uqaujjigiarijannik maajji 6mi katimatuinnaqtilluta saqqitaulauqtumik iqaluktuuttiarmiut maligaliuqtingannut.
-----
I would like to provide the House with a ruling on the matter raised on March 6, during the proceedings of the committee of the whole by the Member for Cambridge Bay.
*************** 
ukua kiugiarutiit iqaluit qitianut maligaliuqtingatta nilliutigilauqtanginnut.
-----
This was in response to remarks made by the Member for Iqaluit Centre.
*************** 
tamanna iniqtiut isumaliurutigivalliallugu, katimajjutivinirni aaqqigiaqtausimanngittuniittut makpigaq 104 ammalu 105 titiraqsimaningit qimirrunaqqaalauqtakka.
-----
In making my ruling, I have reviewed pages 104 and 105 of the transcripts of the unedited Hansard.
*************** 
maligaliuqtiit takuqqutijumajakka aaqqigiaqtausimanngittut katimajjutivinirniittunik, uqaqsimajuqtaqaraluaqtillugu iqaluktuuttiarmiut maligaliuqtingat iniqtirilaurninganik katimajjutaujuq saniqqutaulirniraq&uniuk. tukisiumajakkulli, maligaliuqti tamaunatuinnaq nillirmat tukitaaqtingaaqtara pijunnautiminik
-----
I would like to draw the attention of the House to the fact that although the unedited transcripts indicate that the Member for Cambridge Bay raised a point of order, it is my understanding that the member characterized his intervention as a point of privilege.
*************** 
atungaaq&uni nillilaurninganik. aaqqigiaqtausimajuni katimajjutivinirni taimailingangaalirlutik saqqititausimaniaqtut.
-----
The final Hansard will reflect this.
*************** 
pigiarutigilugu, ilissinnik apiriqqaarumajunga iqqaumangmangaassinnik uqaqtiup isumaliurutigilauqsimajanginnik mai 2, 2000-utillugu, iqaluit qitianut maligaliuqtigijaujuq ammalu iqaluktuuttiarmiut maligaliuqtingat katimajjutaujunut silaqquijuqalirnirailauqsimangmatik.
-----
I would begin by asking the House to recall the Speaker's Ruling of May 2, 2000 concerning points of order that were raised by the Member for Iqaluit Centre and Cambridge Bay.
*************** 
taikani katimajjutaujunut silaqquijuqalirnirainiulauqtut ajjipalunginnik pijjutiqaq&utik taimailijjutaulauqtuq, katimanittinni nilliutaulauqsimajut siqumittinniqpata maligaq 23(ni)-mik, tavvani maligani uqaqsimangmat maligaliuqti iniqtiqtaujariaqaqtisimallugu "maligaliuqtiuqatimik tikkuaqtuiluni saglunirarniqpauk uvvaluunniit ijiqsisimanirarniqpauk".
-----
The points of order raised at the time were similar insofar as they dealt with the question of whether remarks made during proceedings were contrary to Rule 23(i) which states that a member will be called to order if he or she imputes false or hidden motives to another member.
*************** 
maligaliuqtikkunnut una isumaksaqsiurutigijaukpat ikajurniqarniaqtuq:
-----
It is worthwhile for the House to reflect upon the following.
*************** 
uqaqti isumaksaqsiurutiqaliraangami maligaliurviup iluani uqausirnik atuqtaujariaqanngittunik atuqtuqalauqqaaqtillugu, uqaqti isumaksaqsiurutiqaqasiujjisimajarialik uqallalauqtuup nipingata qanuilingalaurninganik, timingata aulausirilauqtanganik ammalu qanuq tukitaaqtisimallunigit maligaliuqtimut nillialaurmangaanganik; ajaurinasungningata suungunirilauqtanganik;
-----
In dealing with unparliamentary language the Speaker takes into account the tone, manner and intention of a member speaking, the person to whom the words were directed, the degree of provocation and most importantly, whether or not the remarks created disorder in the Chamber.
*************** 
ammalu piluannguarlugu, maligaliurvingmi uqausiit atuqtaujariaqanngittut uimmaktittilaurmangaangit maligaliurvingmiittunik
-----
It is also important to be mindful of the distinction between a point of order and a question of privilege.
*************** 
iqqaumajariaqarmijugut ajjigiinngittuungnik tukiqarninginnik ukuak, katimajjutaujuup silaqqutaulirninganut iniqtirijjutiqarniq ammalu pijunnautiminik aturluni iniqtirijjutiqarniq. sulijumik pijunnautiminik aturluni iniqtirijjummik apiqsuutiqarniq atuqtaugajunngittuq.
-----
A true question of privilege should arise infrequently. To constitute a breach of privilege there must be some improper obstruction to a member in performing his or her parliamentary work.
*************** 
pijunnautimingnik siqumittinirainiarluni, maligaliuqti, maligaliuqtiunirminut iqqanaijarasungninga naukkut apuqtausiqtauluniujarialik maligaliuqtiuqatinganut.
-----
The privileges of members include freedom of speech and freedom from arrest.
*************** 
maligaliuqtiit pijunnautitaaqtitausimaningat ilaliujjisimavut isumaqsurluni uqallagunnarnirmik ammalu pirajangniunngittunut tigujaujunnannginnirmik.
-----
Collectively the privileges of the House include the power to regulate its own affairs and the power to discipline its own members.
***************

-----
The issue arising during proceedings the other day, clearly does not constitute a question of privilege.
*************** 
ippaksaq pivallianiulauqtut apiqsuutaujunnanngittut pijunnautigijaujumik siqumittinirmik.
-----
It should have been more properly raised as a point of order.

-----
The Chair is willing however, to undertake the task of considering whether the remarks uttered at that time were within or beyond the boundaries of what is considered acceptable language under our rules and within the rubric of Canadian parliamentary procedure and tradition.
*************** 
katimajjutiviniit qimirrunak&ugit, ujjirilauqtunga tamanna iniqtiut saqqilaurninganik uqausirijaujut naliangnut maligaliuqtimut turaatitaungmangaangit naluliumautaulirmata.
-----
In reviewing the transcript, I note that the question arose as to whom the words in question were directed.
*************** 
iksivautaq nalunaiqsijumajuq maligaliuqtiup aivautingit kinamut kikkunnulluunniit turaaqtitaulaunngikkaluaqtillugit, maligaliuqtiuqatimut turaaqtitat uqausiit, qanuittuugaluaqpata, isumaksaqsiurutigijausimattiarialiit qanuiligiarutaujunnarningit isumagillugit.
-----
Although the Chair takes note of the member's argument that no specific individual or individuals were mentioned, it is nonetheless important that remarks that refer to fellow Members of the Legislative Assembly in any context be chosen judiciously.
*************** 
nalunaiqsikkannirumajunga katimajjutivinirni titiraqtausimajut atuqtatuarillugit maligaliurviup iluani qanuiliurnillariulauqtunik tukisikautiginnanngimmat. taimaatigi piqjuangutigijunik isumaksaqsiurutiqarasuk&uni, tukisikautiginnanngimmijut nilliutigijaulauqtut pijjutaullutik uimmailaurmangaanginnik maligaliurviup iluaniittunik.
-----
I would also note that a written transcript alone cannot capture the full sense of the House at the time the remarks were made, nor can it always capture with certainty such important considerations as whether disorder in the House was imminent as a direct result of the words being spoken at that time.
*************** 
naammaksaqpunga uqallaktillugit nipigilauqtangit tukisijaujunnarmata apiqqutiqalaurninganik, ilangit maligaliuqtiujut ikpigusuttianngituinnariaqalauqtut uvvaluunniit ikpigusuttiatuinnariaqalauq&utik katimautaujuq uqausiutillugu.
-----
I am satisfied that the general tenor of the comments made could be construed as calling into question the extent to which some members may or may not have been giving their full care and attention to the matters under consideration at that time.
*************** 
nalunaiqsikkannirumajunga taanna maligaliuqti uqausirilauqtaminik amusilaunnginninganik iksivautarmik uqallaqatiqaq&uni piviqattialauraluarmat amusijumanniruni. taimaittuugaluaqtillugu, ujjirilaurmijara taanna maligaliuqti maligaliuqtiuqatiminik taisinirlulaunnginninganik.

I would further note that the member did not avail himself of the opportunity to withdraw his remarks during a subsequent exchange with the Chair.

However, I would note that the member did not push the boundaries to the point of directly disparaging any particular member or members by name.
***************

-----
I would also note that it is not improper for members to raise questions or concerns regarding the performance of the government, and would caution members to be mindful of the Chair's view that uncomplimentary remarks are not necessarily unparliamentary personal attacks on the character or the integrity of members in every circumstance. I would further remind the House that:
*************** 
iksivautaup isumanga maliglugu, katimajiujuup uqausirilauqtangit amujaulauqpata naammangniqsaunialauraluaqtuq.
-----
...language deemed unparliamentary one day may not necessarily be deemed unparliamentary the following day. The codification of unparliamentary language has proven impractical as it is the context in which words or phrases are used that the Chair must consider whether or not they should be withdrawn.
*************** 
apiriniaqpara katimajiujuq amusijumangmangaanganik uqausirilauqtaminiik.
-----
In the Chair's view, the member's remarks would have most appropriately been withdrawn at that time.
***************

-----
I would ask that the member withdraw the remarks. Finally, I would like again to remind members on both sides of the floor, of the need to strive for civility and collegiality.
*************** 
taanna kingulliq uqausiqtaq katujjiqatigiingnikkuuriaqarniq ingirrattiarnirmut pijjusiriqattarattigut, ammalu qujanaaqsimajautuinnariaqarani.

This latter quality is one which generally distinguishes our proceedings, and one which we should not lightly cast aside. We as Members of the Legislative Assembly will have to work closely together here in the House.

In reviewing the proposal to create this Utility Rates Review Council, the committee was mindful of the recommendations contained in the Ikuma Report, which this House debated during the Rankin Inlet Sitting last year.

-----
The Ikuma Report recommended that a new rate-setting mechanism be established to accompany the creation of the Nunavut Power Corporation - a process that would be less complex and expensive than the present system, as well as allowing for public input.

Mr. Chairman, earlier this week during Committee of the Whole review of Bill 4, we spoke of the need for the government not to be afraid to try out new ideas and see if they suit our circumstances in Nunavut.

-----
Under the URRC model, the minister, acting on the advice of the Cabinet, will be accountable to the Assembly for the final decisions made. In its deliberations on this initiative, the committee worked with the sponsoring minister to ensure that the legislation was crafted in such a way as to make the workings of the Council as transparent to the public as possible, and that accountability be maximized at every opportunity.

1956-ngutillugu inulirijituqakkut piniagaksanit tamaunngaqsilauqsimangmata iqaluktuuttiarmut.
-----
In 1956 the Department of Indian and Northern Affairs started to transfer programs to Cambridge Bay.

-----
The ship would arrive from Vancouver back in the 1950's during the summertime and they would go to Banks Island and they would freight the material to build the houses. Back in the 1950's they finally constructed a house, it was five hundred square feet.
*************** 
tainna iglu atiqaqtitaulluni 512-mik, tujurmiviullutik allagvigijaulauqsimavut inulirijituqakkunnut.

So that building was called 512, it was accommodations and it was also used as the office of Indian and Northern Services.
*************** 
gavamatuqakkut tukkuaqsilauqsimallutik tukimuaktittijimik qitirmiunut attiqtaulauqsimalluni inuktitut.
-----
The federal government appointed the director and in the Kitikmeot they named him in Inuktitut.
*************** 
atiqalauqsimalluni "itimaarmik" allagvimmi aulattijiulauqsimalluni.
-----
His name was "Itimaaq" and he was hired as an administrator.
***************

-----
His name was in Inuktitut was Itimaaq because every time he saw an Inuk person he would walk and wave to the people with his palm.
*************** 
takujaukautigiqattalauqsimangmat aggangata itimanga nuluraraangat inungnut itimautitaulilauqsimajuq.
-----
So the first thing any people would see was the palm of his hand so every time they saw the individual he waved and Inuit people called him Itimaaq.
***************

His name in qallunaqtitut was James Bond.

-----
Mr. Speaker, the first school was constructed back in 1957 in Cambridge Bay but just before completion it burned down and was gone. In 1958 they constructed another school and once the school was completed thirteen students were enrolled at that school for the first year in 1958.

-----
With that history, to me it seems like Cambridge Bay has been used as a headquarters for quite some time and now, even though the Nunavut Government has done some decentralization to Kugluktuk and Uqsuqtuq, Ikaluktutiak is still the regional headquarters of our region.
***************

I'm sure that Kitikmeot will use Cambridge Bay as their headquarters for quite some time.

But as I have stated before, at the end of the fiscal year, providing we at the end of the fiscal year did not use this program, that if there is a surplus in that program, from different programs, that is least used, we can re-profile funds from there if we can.

But as history will show, if we don't start bringing people from these smaller communities that don't have employment opportunities or making it easier for them to move to another part to find employment opportunities then we are still going to be caught in this income support rut that a lot of the people in our communities are caught in.

The member is correct in that in my opening comments I didn't get into great details about all the projects as the members know, and the schedule that is provided to all members and the public. There is a breakdown by department, by project, which is very detailed, which is normally I believe what we go through in review of the supplementary appropriation.

-----
But for all intents and purposes this is the capital, by and large, the 22 million dollars. Twenty two million, 26 thousand of it is for capital carry-overs for projects that were already approved in last year's fiscal year and for whatever reasons those projects weren't completed or there were portions of those projects that weren't completed.

The answer to the member's second question is, as far as documentation, this document is before the House now, the detail on the supplementary appropriation is the actual list of projects that for various reasons as indicated were not fully completed, or not started during the last fiscal year. That's why they're back here to ensure they are completed in this current fiscal year, Mr. Chairman.

Can the minister tell us, some of these projects that are not completed from last year which were budgeted for, maybe as a result of some delay or oversight by the regions because once you have the budget completed the headquarters tells the regions and the communities or maybe the regions in some cases did not carry them out from regions and they were not noticed or they did not see that the projects were not proceeded with by the regional office.

-----
Mr. Chairman, there is capacity at various levels of course with the needs of department in respect of capital planning, whether they have capital planners or managers but there's certainly a portion of the headquarters component within each department that has responsibility for the capital planning. So I mean by that same token, they would be the individuals that would be tracking and monitoring the delivery of the capital projects in their particular department.

-----
Having said that we do know that at times there are issues for various reasons, again where there's capacity, not having all the project officers available whether there may be too many projects in a community or in a particular region, the timing of them all going out in various short timeframes, that causes the possibility of some delays or some problems that cause some projects not to be delivered in a timely fashion. But it would not be anything where any of our officials would intentionally not deliver capital projects.

When you enter into a contract it's bid based on the time, materials and supplies.

This is where the confusion arises because our main estimates for 2001-2002 is 5 million, 165 thousand. So we don't really know unless we subtract from the 8 million 335 thousand the 3 million, 170 thousand it will give us a true picture as to what the short fall was or unspent money for those projects.

In this case we really don't know what has been done in Baker Lake, unless we look at the previous main estimates from 2000-2001, and we don't even know if anything's been done in Baker Lake, or fifty percent done in Baker Lake.

Like for Baker Lake it was 2 million, 541 thousand dollars appropriated during 2000-2001. So that would suggest that 2/3 of the project has been completed during the past fiscal year and one third of it remains to be carried out or finalized over the current year.

But on these carry-overs, you just quoted Baker Lake as 2 million 541 thousand dollars being spent, and I remember writing letters to Public Works in regards to what the total project cost for that tank farm at that time and I think it was in the ball park of 3.2 million.

So on all these projects that come to total of 3 million and 170 thousand dollars, is this what we budgeted for back in the last fiscal year and it's a carry over because projects weren't completed due to weather or the way the project was tendered out over a one or two year period.

By and large these would be the projects that were approved last year.

For example, using Baker Lake as an example, speaking about that, if it was learned that they would require more than 804 thousand dollars now that should be approved today for that project, then they would have to come back, we would have to come back for a supplementary appropriation to the House, for the additional dollars.

-----
Mr. Chairman, the reason why, you know, all the figures are different, there's different, first of all, beginning figures for each project are different, depending on the scope of the work that's required that was approved last year or previous years. Then because certain contracts may proceed more rapidly than others, as far as the delivery aspect, there might be some, that are almost finished.

-----
Obviously if you look at the Hall Beach Pipeline scenario, 28 thousand isn't a significant amount, so there's probably just minor warranty work remaining in that particular project. But if you compare it to the Baker Lake tank farm, 804 thousand out of 2.5 million, it's about of third of the project still left to go on that one.

-----
So I mean, it all depends, and the reason why there isn't quite frankly, isn't more detail is, because we've already gone through the detailed review, the substantiation of each of these projects and I understand that Ms. Williams, you weren't with us at that time, but during last year's review of the capital appropriations, each of the projects were reviewed in detail by the standing committee process and by the House when we approved the budget.

Now if members want us to change that, obviously there'll be a bit more work required, we could, you know, rearrange this supplementary appropriation supplement for you, the information package, and give you more detail if that's what members want.

We were really gung-ho especially for the Minister of Health about Nunavut Tele-health and how important it is to have the right diagnosis. I guess we were gung-ho about getting it done fast so that some of the patients can be diagnosed properly and secondly there will be less requirement to fly them out if they can be diagnosed directly from the community using Nunavut Tele-health.

To get the 3.7 million dollars from the Federal Government we have to be able to match that and with the support of the members here, we were able to lapse that money this year, so now when that money came forward from the CHIT proposal from Federal Government which we announced in the Assembly last month, that 1 million dollars will be used as part of our proposal to leverage the 3.7 million from the federal government. That is the reason for lapsing, it will be used.

You know if they are going to put, if we're going to approve money in the capital plan and put millions of dollars into parks and then we approve it, we should be told ahead of time and I'm on that standing committee that this all could be held up if NTI doesn't decide or the Federal Government or whatever the organization decides that, you know, they're a lot slower at the gate than us, you know now that we've committed 4 million, 313 thousand dollars in capital projects.

So I'm going into question period tomorrow about this and I'll ask the minister about what his staff are doing, or what are they doing to speed the process up to build these parks rather than tie up million and millions of dollars in capital, waiting for somebody to get out of the gate to do something about it.

It cost a little over 2 million dollars and I was thinking that we're about the middle of May and if it's going to be contracted to purchase materials and so on, you have to schedule it so that you can bring the supplies, the lumber and so on, by ship and it's now already the middle of May.

He didn't tell me a date but that was the response that I got from the Minister of Education, and that came from his capital projects co-ordinator Mr. Lorne Levy. Now it's here again and I'm concerned that we might not catch the sealift season if it wasn't tendered out already.

Mr. Speaker, I would like to make a statement about suicide and suicide prevention.
***************

-----
It is something that is a priority within our government.
*************** 
amisualuit imminirsimalirmata nunattinnittauq marrusimalirmatik ammalu aikpanga maannarulujujuq.
-----
There are quite a large number of completed suicides and there have been two in my community and one was just recent.
***************

-----
With those types of incidents, it is very hard on the community and on the residents.

-----
To try to deal with this issue, a number of youth in my community are going to be taken out on the land approximately 20 miles away from the community and I think there are going to be approximately 40 youth that are going to be sent out on the land.
*************** 
taikkua uvikkaujut taikanngat najuqtanganik pisulaarmijut tavvunga nunattinnutuqaqtii.
-----
The youth will be walking from that point to the community.
***************

One of the goals is to give the youth an opportunity to think about and realize what life is about.
*************** 
tamanna aksualuk upigigakku kangiqtugaapingmiutaullunga ammalu taikkua uvikkaujut upigittiaqtakka.

It is something that I am very proud of as a resident of Clyde River and I am very proud of all these youth.
***************

-----
They are all teenagers who will be walking and overnighting on the trail on their trek back to our community.

-----
They will be sleeping over night out on the tundra and they are walking to make the youth realize that suicide is a problem and that youth have the ability to overcome these problems and to realize what they can do with their lives.
***************

-----
I had hoped to be arriving here on Tuesday, but the Cambridge Bay wind saw fit to provide me and my colleague across the floor from Iqaluit West a spontaneous visit to Kugluktuk where the local staff from Culture, Language, Elders & Youth and DSD were very helpful and also very pleased to receive the Tim Horton's donuts that I had planned to bring here.

Mr. Speaker, Nunavummiut reacted with relief to the news this week that our territory will not be facing the possibility of a general strike in the public service.

-----
As we have witnessed over the past few weeks in Iqaluit with the worsening municipal labour situation, the costs to communities and families of such a widespread disruption in public services would have been most serious in our communities.

I believe it is also important to note that in a jurisdiction with a high cost of living and the high cost of housing it makes families survive from pay cheque to pay cheque.

Mr. Speaker, the Public Service Act that we inherited from the Government of the Northwest Territories was amended in the 1990's by a former government to remove the possibility of arbitration.

We hear and speak a lot about the need to make all legislation more consistent with our values in Nunavut.

Mr. Speaker, I believe that having arbitration as an option is something that the government should seriously consider reinstating into the legislation as it reviews its Public Service Act.

-----
Mr. Speaker, with figures like 6.25 million being earned by Nunavummiut from the development of the Meliadine area over the past five years and over 40 million being spent on mineral exploration in Nunavut last year, it is clear that we must step up our efforts to keep as much of this money as possible in Nunavut.

One was that Nunavut was rich in resources and the other was that we are poor when it comes to skills that the mining industry is seeking.

-----
I think in 1980 we began to see more suicides in our community and presently I think all the members here today and the visitors, there are so many more that have passed due to suicide. In the 1980's, I believe that a lot of people committed suicide that would probably have been my age today.

When I speak about this it really hurts me because I have lost three family members to suicide and I know that we all go through hard times and because I have gone through it I like to promote suicide prevention.

Mr. Speaker, it doesn't matter when your friend or family member passed on, even after many years you hurt and it is something that we often think about and ask ourselves why the individual or the person committed suicide.

Mr. Speaker, as I indicated in my member's statement, I talked about a piece of legislation that we inherited from the GNWT that being the Public Service Act.

Mr. Speaker, one of the reasons, after the construction of the units, if there is a unit available for lease, it costs a lot of money to pay for the maintenance and operations of the unit. We have over 3 thousand units that we are using and they cost a lot of money.

In regards to the tannery, I believe there was one in Broughton Island and they tanned sealskins and so on.

You will recall, Mr. Chairman, that this House adopted a code of Members' Obligations in May of last year. A section of the code reads:

As this piece of legislation specifically relates to elected MLAs, the Management and Services Board of the Legislative Assembly requested Nunavut's Conflict of Interest Commissioner, the Honourable Robert Stanbury, to conduct a comprehensive review of the relevant legislation and to make recommendations as to how we could establish a new conflict of interest regime in Nunavut.

-----
The new legislation recognizes that in order to determine whether there is a conflict of interest, it is really only necessary to know the source and the nature of the private interest -- regardless of whether it is a small value or a large one, the principle is the same.

These businesses may be a party to a contract with government - provided that the Integrity Commissioner authorizes it -- but only on the basis that the contract is unlikely to affect the member's performance of his or her duties of office.

-----
It recognizes that any family member living with the member who is dependent on the member or the Member's spouse, or any child treated as a child of the Member, or anyone living in a conjugal relationship with the member is close enough to the member that their private interests must also be carefully scrutinized to ensure that there is no conflict of interest.

-----
The current system essentially only requires disclosure forms to be given to the Clerk of the Assembly and asks the Conflict of Interest Commissioner to investigate and adjudicate conflict of interest complaints. The new process puts more emphasis on prevention, by requiring annual meetings of members with the Integrity Commissioner.

It also encourages members to seek advice and written opinions from the Commissioner if they have any questions about whether their private interests may be in conflict with their public duty.

-----
The new process will include a wider range of sanctions in the event of a request for review and a finding of a contravention. Our primary approach will be that if there has been a wrong, how can we make it right?
***************

-----
For example, members may be asked to publicly acknowledge their conduct or pay compensation. By putting the emphasis on remedial action rather than simply punishment, members will be encouraged to be open and to participate in solving the problem.

-----
There is also a specific provision in the new legislation that if a contravention is found to have occurred, there will be no sanction if the member took all reasonable measures to prevent the contravention;
*************** 
uqakkannirumatuinnaqtugut taakkutiguunaq maligait ilulingittigut, maligaliuqtiit ilaunginnaqunaqtut qanuittutuinnarmik qimirrunangnirmik pivalliajuqtaqarniqpat, taimanna akaunngiliurut aaqqiksarainniqsauniarmat ammalu kiinaujaqtunnginniqpaangulluni aulatauniarmat.
-----
the contravention was trivial, committed through inadvertence or an error of judgment made in good faith; or the member was acting in accordance with the Integrity Commissioner's advice, having disclosed all material facts known to the member.
*************** 
taimaittuugaluaqtillugu, tamannalu maluginiqput pijjutigillugu, iniqtiqtaujjutiit uvvaluunniit qanuiligiarutiit maligaliuqtiup pijunnarniqtaarisimajanganik iksivaaqataujunnarnirmik ammalu niruaqataujunnarnirmik maligaliurviup iluani nuqqangatitaulaukagunnaqtut, taimaittumagutik, nuqqangakainnaqtitauninga aaqqiktausimajumik takiniqaqtitaujunnaq&uni, uvvaluunniit nalunaiqtausimajut maligiaqaqtangit pijariiqtaussiarilugit, uvvaluunniit -- malungnaluaqtut kamagijaujariaqaqtillugit -- maligaliuqtiup iksivautanga inuqannginniraqtaulirluni.
-----
Again, it is our hope that this provision will encourage members to participate fully in any review process, so that it is resolved quickly and with a minimum of expense. However, because we do take this very seriously, the range of sanctions also provides that a member's right to sit and vote in the Legislative Assembly may be suspended, for a specified period or until a specified condition is fulfilled, or -- in the most serious of cases -- that the member's seat be declared vacant.

-----
The integrity of the whole Legislative Assembly is compromised if a Member acts improperly for personal gain or the gain of others and it is therefore important that this sanction be in the list.

Members of the Legislative Assembly will have the ultimate say on what sanction will be imposed, and on issues such as paying for the legal costs of any party.

Mr. Chairman, as I have noted earlier, the new Act continues to require members and, in particular, ministers, to arrange their personal affairs in a way that promotes public confidence in each member's integrity and to honour the expectation that they will operate with openness, objectivity and impartiality.

Mr. Chairman, by allowing the Integrity Commissioner to review individual circumstances to determine if the public interest will be served by allowing members or their families to operate in the private sector and contract with government, we will ensure the highest standards of service to the public in our communities. In some cases, this will require the use of arms-length trusts and -- in all cases -- the careful scrutiny of the Integrity Commissioner.

With the new Integrity Act, in the speaking notes, Mr. Ng was saying and I also believe that Inuit Qaujimajatuqangit can be used as a foundation in this process.

***************

In our culture if anybody, who did something wrong, if they had conflict, according to the method of Inuit disciplining in spite of what the individual had done, they look for ways to improve and better the life of the individual.

According to our culture, we cannot change right away but perhaps by the second or third time when you are actually do what you were told by the elders the person can change their ways.

So, we have to look for ways to integrate this method of discipline into this, because I believe that people took a lot of time, it took a lot of time for individuals to develop this method.

And I know that this will be used as a foundation as Inuit, as people of Nunavut know in the communities in the small, especially in Nunavut, the communities are quite small and as Inuit people in one individual community everybody is related to each other.

We really don't know where we can improve the areas and as we experience this further we'll learn more on how to apply this in regards to the conflict of interest and it's going to deal with the justice system too.

-----
In the past and in the future you are going to have people running for politics that have a business background or involved in small business because civil servants have a tendency to stay in their jobs because they have security whereas business people come out and run for politics because they want to hopefully change the future.

I could continue on to say that what happened in the past is the past and I think the old government will go down in infamy as probably looked at and frowned upon and scorned by governments of the day.

I'm not trying to offend anybody but it's no secret when a Premier is taken out of his position because of conflict of interest that it hurt the whole territory and at the time we were part of that territory.
***************

It sounds and it feels more like an Act that members can feel more at ease, because when you are a businessperson in this government you feel uneasy.

-----
I for one felt uneasy being a small business person in this government because if you go out and try and advance your livelihood and you are a politician you are frowned upon and even more so if you are a businessperson rather than a just a politician with no business interests.

I'm going to make a brief general comment.
*************** 
ii, taimaittumi maligaqariaqaqtugut ammalu quviagittiaqtugu inuit qaujimajatuqangit isumagiqasiutjaulaurmata.
-----
Yes. I believe that we need this Integrity Act and I'm very pleased that Inuit Qaujimajatuqangit was used as its foundation.
*************** 
uqaraigatta inuit qaujimajatuqangit atuqtaulaurmat tunngavigijaulluni. uqaraangatta inuit qaujimajatuqanginnit isumaniusavakpugut naukkut amma qanuq katiksunnarmangaattigu inuit qaujimajatuqangit, suli takujunnanngilagut qanuq katitautippalliammangaattigu inuit qaujimajatuqangit kisianili, uqaqpakkaluaraangatta inuit qaujimajatuqanganik aturumalluta, qanuq atulirunnaqpitigu takuksautillugulu.
-----
When we say Inuit Qaujimajatuqangit we often think where and how we can integrate Inuit Qaujimajatuqangit, we still can't see how we are integrating Inuit Qaujimajatuqangit but, although we say that we want to use Inuit Qaujimajatuqangit, how can we start using it and make it visible. According to Inuit culture and the method disciplining of an individual who was in conflict, the Inuit method is a method of discipline.
*************** 
inuit iliqqusingatigut anullassiijjusiqatigullu inummik akaunngiliulauqtumik, innait iniqtirivalauqput amma qaujigutit naukkut iluanngiliurutitaqarmangaaq, inuk iniqtiqtaujuq uqaujjaujunnaqpuq aaggaluunniit pijumanngikkuni.
-----
If it is a young individual who's had a conflict, the elder disciplines them verbally and if the elder sees where the problem is, the individual being disciplined can listen to what he's been told or not, if he doesn't want to.
*************** 
tamannauvuq inuit qaujimajatuqanga atuqtaujunnaqtuq, tamanna iliqqusik atuqtaujunnaqtuq.

So, this is Inuit traditional knowledge that could be used, this method could be used.
*************** 
akaunngiliurnirmut maligaq, tainna maligallattaaq imannailimmat inuk ullumikkut uqarunnarunniirmata iluanngiliurutiminit.
-----
The Conflict of Interest Act, the actual fact is that if an individual today has a problem they can't really talk about it.
***************

-----
So, it's up to the families and individuals according to Inuit Qaujimajatuqangit if there was a problem experienced they could talk and resolve the situation that's Inuit Qaujimajatuqangit tradition by talking with each other to resolve the situation by talking about it and resolving the issue and everything.
*************** 
kisulimaat qanuigunniiliqpaktut tamatumuunalu piusivaalliqtirivakput inuusirminit inuit qaujimanituqangatigut.

Everything goes back to normal and they improve their lives that's Inuit traditional knowledge.

I also want to say that if an individual infringes on a government statute according to the law, qallunaaq law, sometimes they are not allowed to talk to each other.
***************

-----
This creates more problems, as it does not resolve the situation.
*************** 
inuit qaujimajatuqangit imannaittuuvuq inuit uqaqatigiittut aaqqiinasuktutit iluanngiliurutiminit.

Inuit Qaujimajatuqangit traditional knowledge is the fact that people talk to each other to resolve their issues.

The Conflict of Interest Commissioner knows that we might infringe or break laws, but how can we improve the Act by using Inuit traditional knowledge and by making it visible and useful and to integrate it into the system.
***************

Mr. Chairman I'd like to take this opportunity to thank Mr. Stanbury, for I think, a very fine piece of work and I'm very pleased to see this piece of legislation before the House.

I think that the strength of any government is its ability for openness and accountability to the public that it serves and I think that this Act goes a long way in helping to do that.
***************

This shows the significance of taking it out of the Executive Council and Legislative Assembly Act and making it a stand alone Integrity Act.
*************** 
tamanna takutittivuq pimmariugijattinnit taimannailingajuqaqtillugu amma ilaakkuungaluni.

That alone shows how we feel it is important to have something like that out there and separate.

I think the ideas that are integrated into this new piece of legislation are great.
***************

-----
Simplifying it so that the general public can take a look at it and understand it and they won't need to hire a lawyer to try and decipher it and figure out what it says.
*************** 
tamannatuugaluaruni inunnut suqquimajaujunnarluni piruikkanirasugivara inulimaat tatiqarunnarninginnit gavamakkunnit amma pijariakillitittilluni tukisirnilurutaujunnaqtunit.

I think that alone, people being able to understand what it is goes a long way in building that public confidence in the government and it clears up any possible misunderstandings a lot easier.
***************

-----
As a couple of my colleagues already indicated, Nunavut, not only the communities, but Nunavut itself is a very small territory and there are people who are related to everybody in one way, shape or form if you go back far enough.
*************** 
piugijarali takutittimmat ilitaqsimmallu taimannaittuujunit maligarmi.

I think it is good that it shows and recognizes those types of things in the Act.

Mr. Chairman, when the minister was making his opening remarks, I was impressed with the work that was done. The comments talk about Inuit Qaujimajatuqangit.

My colleague earlier spoke about how the Inuit used to discipline the people in their community and I agree with him about when we look at the reports and see Inuit Qaujimajatuqangit included in reports.

Hopefully, in the future all the items relating to Inuit Qaujimajatuqangit will be implemented. When we talk about Inuit Qaujimajatuqangit, and later on I will be asking questions regarding Inuit Qaujimajatuqangit, hoping that today, presently, we often go through hard times and under Inuit Qaujimajatuqangit we are working hard to integrate Inuit Qaujimajatuqangit within the government and within the Canadian government.

Mr. Chairman this Bill 7 is related to all the members and it's put together very well and I appreciate the work that Mr. Stanbury did. I'm glad that the members were able to have some input and I just wanted to express how a great job Mr. Stanbury did and I know that this will help us with the work that we do within the Legislative Assembly.

-----
Mr. Chairman, first of all I would like to start off by saying that as a new government we have a chance to reform government and to bring about legislative change and to create and bring into force unique legislation that reflects Nunavut.
***************

-----
But it is also a standard, Mr. Chairman, I would suggest to you that it is a standard that needs to be achieved, has to be achieved and seems to have been achieved nationally with what we have done with the Integrity Act.
***************

-----
This Act is uniquely a made in Nunavut approach and as mentioned, even the name Mr. Chairman, Integrity Act is a drastic departure from the generic conflict of interest legislation that you find in every other jurisdiction in this country.
*************** 
inuit qaujimanituqangit katiqasiujjauningit maligaup iluani uqalimaakkannirunnaruttiuk takugajaqpusi tarraliangusimammat maligaup ilulilimaangani.
-----
I think the incorporation of Inuit Qaujimajatuqangit within the Act itself, if you have an opportunity to read it over, you will see that's reflected throughout the legislation that is before us.

-----
I think it is important also to note also Mr. Chairman, that Mr. Stanbury is an old friend of Nunavut having been the genesis, and I say that without fear of contradiction. The genesis of the funding of ITC, the forerunner of NTI and the reason why we are here today from over 30 years ago when he was the Federal Minister with the Federal Government of Canada that actually sponsored and gave the first funding to Tagak Curley and the ITC to begin Nunavut.

-----
I would like to finish my opening comments, Mr. Chairman, by saying that this piece of legislation today is something that I believe that in two years from now when the term of this legislature is over, it is something that we will be able to look back on and be proud of.
***************

Mr. Chairman the main purpose for the reference for the member's child or family or spouse or anybody dependant on that member that's living in the same household as a result of those private interests are deemed basically or hoped to be the same as the members.

It does go to the heart of the question of including members of the family in the disclosure requirements in this Act.
***************

I would be reluctant to give you examples because I don't want to try to anticipate things on which I might have to rule.

-----
But it is not only being recognized in this Bill in Nunavut that any dependant members of the family might have interests which could be favoured by a legislator but this is a growing recognition across Canada in similar legislation.

You asked me in preparing proposed legislation of this kind to take into account not only the conditions and environment of Nunavut but also the trends in this kind of legislation across Canada.

-----
And while you want to be very Nunavut specific and make sure that it's relevant to the environment of Nunavut, I recognize that you also want it to be at the leading edge of the developments of Conflict of Interest legislation in Canada.
***************

So that there is a growing recognition that there is potential for favouring, a potential for legislators being perceived to favour any dependant relative living in their household.

-----
Now, this proposed legislation would not prevent any of those people from for instance contracting with government or being employed by government, that would be impractical as some of you have pointed out, in this jurisdiction.

But it does oblige you, it would oblige you to be open about who those people are who are dependant in your family so that the public can make a judgement of whether or not they are being favoured.
***************

-----
So what is being proposed is that the people who are related to legislators, who might be perceived by the public to be potentially favoured by the legislators, are known to the public.

-----
As a number of other provisions in this bill, the opportunities are not restricted but the information available to the public is expanded, so that the public can make a judgement, so that you can make a judgement yourself, about whether or not the actions of a Member of the Legislative Assembly are fair to the public as compared to his or her actions in relation to his or her family.

-----
The family, not just in Nunavut, but across Canada, is being perceived in a larger context and I think the definitions in this bill take into account not only the conditions in Nunavut in a practical way, but take into account the trends across the country.
***************

-----
I stress that it does not limit the opportunities of members of the family, it just obliges the legislator to make clear in public who those dependant members of his or her family are so that everyone can be open and can make their own judgement about the fairness of legislators' activities.

It seems like there has been a problem for me when members of my family want to be provided with assistance from the government for example, and I assist the people that are not my family and it has been a problem whereby I am not able to help my relations.

It should be clear that there is nothing in this bill that would prevent the member from treating his family members in exactly the same way as any other constituent.

It is perfectly acceptable under the proposed statute to assist members of your family in accessing the same kind of benefits as are available in the same way to all your other constituents.

So certainly there should be no misunderstanding in the general public that a member cannot assist his own family or a member of a legislator's family cannot be assisted in the same way as any other citizen of Nunavut.

Now at the same time Mr. Chairman, if the member is referring to what specifically is in the legislation as far as trying to recognize Inuit Qaujimajatuqangit, there are provisions that the Integrity Commissioner in this case, when the bill passes, will be able to draw upon elders for consultation on specific cases.

-----
Even to go as far as, providing the member allows it, for a member who may be in a position of being reviewed, allows that they can discuss the circumstances of his or her situation with elders provided the confidential matters on the specifics of what is being reviewed.
***************

We are hoping, you know there is nothing formally laid out in procedures on how to do that yet, but we know in our current judicial system, there have been developments where elders can participate in judicial proceedings.

We are hoping and are confident that the Integrity Commissioner once this bill becomes law will be able to work with members and with others that will involve elders in the proceedings of the work that the Integrity Commissioner has to carry out.

Dealing with this specific legislation I know that there has been a change and it is now called the Integrity Act and the main thing that it was before was a conflict of interest.

Mr. Chairman, obviously if there is deemed to be a personal benefit to a member it is a conflict of interest, but in fact from that perspective it hasn't changed.

-----
In fact with our legislation, the Integrity Act, we feel that it has actually been broadened from the perspective that right now, as long as a member knows or reasonably should know that there is an opportunity to improperly further his or her own private interests, if that situation were to happen, that he or she should reasonably know that language.
*************** 
piunngilaq uqatuinnarianga qaujimanninngigianga, qanuittuqarniqpat taiknalu qaujijaunniqpat piliriamit aturniluutiqarnirianga.

It is not good enough to say that he or she didn't know, if something were to happen and that individual were found to be in a conflict of interest situation.
*************** 
taimaimmat taikanngat avvasilligiaqsimavuq maannaujuq piliriamit aturniluutiqarnirmut maligarmit.

So from that perspective it has been broadened from the current conflict of interest legislation.

As the minister has said the conflict of interest definition has been broadened in this bill.
*************** 
taikkua uqausiit "qaujimajuq uvvaluunniit qaujimajarialik", ilagutitsiavauvut mitsiqarninganik ininganik 8-mik, ministaup tikkuaqqaujanga.

The words, "knows or reasonably should know", are an important addition to the definition in section 8, as the minister has pointed out.
*************** 
tamanna atuqtauqujaulaurpuq nunattiap qaujisaqtinginnut, qaujisaqtaumalluni qaujisautinni atilimmik, "iliqqusituqakkut sulittiarnirmit".

That was recommended by the NWT Review Panel, which is analyzed in my report entitled, "For a Culture of Integrity".

-----
But this bill goes one step further and it draws as the honourable member has pointed out, it draws from other advanced legislation in the country to add the words, "or improperly to further another person's private interest".
*************** 
ilitaqsivuq pitaqarunnarmat piliriamit aturniluutiqarnirmit katimaji ajjigiittittinninginnikkut ikajuqsurniqpat namminiq illumiuqatinginnut, kisiani maligaliuqti ikajuqsurniqpat kiatuinnaup pitaqaqujanginnit pittiarani.
-----
In other words, it recognizes that there can be a conflict of interest not only if a member were to unfairly favour a member of his or her own family, but if the legislator were to favour anyone's interest improperly.
*************** 
tamajja sannginiqpaaq nalunairianga piliriamit aturniluutiqarniq naliannituinnaq maligarmit kanatami.

So this is the strongest definition of conflict of interest in any legislation in Canada.

-----
Mr. Chairman, I am really pleased to hear that and I think that will go a long way in the public perception that we now no longer have a Conflict of Interest Act, they may have had some concern as to whether it was still an Integrity Act, not just another Conflict of Interest Act.

-----
Another thing that I would like to ask Mr. Chairman, is in the minister's opening comments, he talked about including a wider range of sanctions that could be imposed by the Commissioner if an MLA is in violation of the Act.

-----
One example which responds to the member's interest in the potential use of Inuit Qaujimajatuqangit and traditional knowledge, drawing on the principles of Inuit values that are traditional, is that the member might be required to publicly acknowledge his or her conduct.
*************** 
allaat mikijuugaluarmit, uuttuutigilugu, inuit piqqusingit, mamiagumaniqarniq amma ilitaqsijumaniqarniq pasijaujunnarniqarnirlu.

There is, I think even found on the wall of this room, as an example of Inuit values, the willingness to apologize and to recognize and take responsibility.

I think other members have mentioned that here tonight.
*************** 
taimaimmat tamajja ilangat atuqtaujunnatuinnarialik pijunnarutinut ajjiunngittuq nunavummi maliganginnit takunnaqtugu kanatalimaarmi.
-----
So that is one possible sanction which is unique to Nunavut in laws of this kind in Canada.
*************** 
minista uqaqqaummat akiliutaujut uvvaluunniit akiujut akiliutauqujautuinnariaqaqput katimajimut uvvaluunniit katimajinut akiliqtaulutik.
-----
The minister mentioned that compensation or costs could be ordered to be paid by a member or to a member.
*************** 
maligaq atuqtaujunnarajarivuq katimaji pijunnaqsititaunniqpat maligaqtigut tamakkuninga kiinaujanik pijunnarniujunik, kiinaujait piijaqtauqattarajarlutik sikkitaaminit.
-----
The Act would also provide that if a member became liable by order of the legislature for one of these financial sanctions, the funds could be deducted from the member's pay.
*************** 
uvvaluunniit kiinaujait aturassait pijaujunnarlutik iqqaqtuivikkutigut.
-----
Or the financial sanctions could be recovered in a court of law.
*************** 
taimaimmat tamakku asannginiqaqtummariuvut kiinaujaqtigut pijunnarutiujut.
-----
So these are strong additional sanctions.
*************** 
pitaqarivuq sulittiarnirmut kamisanamut isumaligijaugiaqullugu amma uqaujjigiarviqaqullugu naliannutuinnaq pijunnarutiit akauniqsaummangaata.
-----
There is also a provision for the Integrity Commissioner to consider and recommend any other sanction which may be appropriate.
***************

-----
So this allows a great flexibility to examine the nature of the activity that has been found to be in contravention of the act, and to assess the seriousness of that activity, to assess the appropriateness of a remedy without restriction to a hard and fast list.
*************** 
pivissaqarutaugajaqpuq kamisanamut qanuqtuurutigiluniuk ajjiunngittumit saqqiiluni, taimaigumagussi, uqaujjigiarluni pijunnarutinginnut maligaliurvimmut, pillugu maligaliurvik isumaliuqtiummat, qanuqtuurutiqarunnarniq qaujimagiarutauluni, taimaigumannirussi, pijunnarutiit attuaniqaraluarmangaata nuqqaqtitaujunik.
-----
It would give the Commissioner the flexibility to be creative, if you like, in recommending a sanction and it would give the Legislative Assembly, because the Legislative Assembly makes the ultimate decision, that flexibility in making sure that, if you like, the sanction fits the contravention.
*************** 
uqausingannit pinirluttuminirmut pirajattuminiqtitut.
-----
Getting away from the terminology of the penalty fitting the crime.
***************

Because as you have pointed out, as the honourable member has pointed out, there is a whole new spirit in this Act.
*************** 
pijjutigivaa maligaup qanuinningit taassuma maligaup isumagijauvuq katimajiit tavvani maligaliurvimmit pillugu katimajiit pittiaqtunik piliriaqaqullugit.

The whole spirit of this Act is that an assumption that all Members of this Legislative Assembly regard politics as a noble profession.
*************** 
qaujimaqullugit taqqakkununga niriugijauttiarmata, pijunnarnilimaangigut niriunniqaqtutillu quttinniqpaanik.

That they know the public expects the best of them, the highest standards of them and that they expect the highest standards of themselves.

-----
So while the standards set out in this Act are probably the strictest of any legislation in Canada, or perhaps the world, because as far as I have examined legislation, I believe with the statement or purpose, the statement of principles, the statement of commitment and the accountability that is built into this Act, I think you have the strongest commitment to high principles and high standards of any legislation that I know of.

-----
The purpose of having flexibility in the sanctions is to make sure that the sanctions are refined to acknowledge that there may be a wide range of seriousness of contraventions and I don't think anyone wants a member of this legislature to be sanctioned in any way unfairly. On the other hand you want to have the flexibility to make the sanction fit the contravention and if it is a serious contravention, it might be, as the minister has said, serious enough to warrant that the member's seat be declared vacant.

It might be serious enough that the member be required to pay compensation, either to the government for a loss of the government, or to some member of the public for loss as a result of his or her actions.

One of the other questions that I would like to ask Mr. Chairman, is any legislation or any rules that you have that govern yourself are only as good as the ability that one has that is appointed to be the referee, or in this case the Integrity Commissioner, the power that the Commissioner has to look into and investigate and conduct a review thoroughly and have the ability to access the materials that he or she may need to access in order to come to a proper report and findings in a potential complaint.

I'm satisfied Mr. Chairman, that the commissioner whoever it might be, today or in the future, has all the powers necessary to subpoena either people or documents if necessary in an investigation or review and including if necessary the powers of a commission under the Inquiries Act.

I think the member raises a question which touches on the independence of the commissioner as well and I think it's important to recall that unlike in at least one other jurisdiction which is in the news these days, the commissioner under the Nunavut legislation is an officer of the Legislative Assembly.

So, I hope that is reassuring to the honourable member. You have put a lot of trust in your Integrity Commissioner, but the Integrity Commissioner has all the powers and the independence that I think you want an Integrity Commissioner to have so that he or she could carry out the functions that you are giving him or her in this legislation.

-----
I would draw to the honourable member's attention that there is a, that this Integrity Act is divided to make it a little bit more digestible than the previous law that you've had to contend with, so that there's a clearly delineated group of sections that apply to all Members of the Legislature and followed by a group of sections that apply to ministers alone.

-----
I might just say in passing, you will note that in this statute the Speaker is not treated as a minister but as a regular member, because in most jurisdictions it is recognized that the Speaker does not have the same circumstances applying to his or her activities as a minister.

Ministers are not permitted to engage in certain outside activities without either their interests being placed in a blind trust, or receiving the explicit authorization from the Integrity Commissioner for the carrying out of those activities.

They cannot carry on business through a partnership or a sole proprietorship or hold an office or a directorship unless holding the office or directorship is one of the minister's duties as a minister or the office or directorship is in a social club, religious organization or political party.

-----
So that for the first time, legislation in Nunavut would provide explicitly for a blind trust which would have to be approved by the Integrity Commissioner, or in the alternative, and I think it might be more commonly used, an explicit application to the Integrity Commissioner for the authority to do a particular thing which otherwise would not be permitted.

What we have done here, and you can see the rationale in my report, what we have done here as the minister has said, is to provide that the whole process provided for in this statute, is to be carried out by the Integrity Commissioner.

Now, there is no division between the authority of the Integrity Commissioner to advise and to come to recommendations and authority given to an outside arbitrator for instance, who would have to in effect, start over again with an inquiry.

The process here is designed to resolve issues as quickly as possible, restore harmony with the Integrity Commissioner having responsibility for the whole process, from advising members to dealing with giving members written opinions if requested, to responding to requests for review, formerly known as complaints.

I just want to follow up on a question my colleague Rebecca Williams asked in regards to Deputy Ministers and senior civil servants having to follow this Act and maybe, you know, it's a good move that they don't have to follow. I'm sure there's old policies and procedures in place for civil servants in regards to conflict of interest.
*************** 
maligaliuqti qamaniqtuarmut, makliin.
-----
It's no secret with decentralization and the government being closer to people that there's going to be more senior bureaucrats and civil servants living in communities and in most cases they have an opportunity to get in business as much as anybody. Do you foresee a separate Act covering all the civil servants in conflicts of interest.
*************** 
mista makliin:
-----
Because they'll be out there applying for the same grants and contributions and contracts down the road as the private sector will be and I foresee some clashes starting to happen. So, is it just going to be each department make up their own policy and procedure or will it be a whole new Act come forward or policy come forward that will blanket the whole civil service.

We are fortunate that we haven't had a situation like that yet in Nunavut and hopefully with the passage of this bill, the possibilities are minimized if members follow the advice and regularly confer with the Integrity Commissioner to ensure that they are not put into a situation where they could possibly be in a conflict of interest.

The honourable member is correct that, if he is referring to a government contract, a member who has a government contract, or has a company with a government contract, would not be able to renew that government contract after his election without either the business being put into a blind trust before that should happen, or it should be authorized explicitly by the Integrity Commissioner.

My question is the Integrity Commissioner says that if a person breaks the law, if the member breaks the law they have to pay either a fine or they have to go to court but following Inuit traditional knowledge in that part of the punishment and the paying restitution where does the Inuit Qaujimajatuqangit come in, in that part or in that section of the Act.

-----
Mr. Chairman, certainly the intention of the Act is that this would be a particularly important stage of any consideration of an activity by a member a particularly important stage for calling on the wisdom of elders, not only in terms of the assessment of the seriousness of the contravention but in terms of appropriateness of the suggested sanction.

-----
Certainly, a fine is one of the alternative sanctions as it is in the present law and the provision for recovering of any financial sanction in court is partly to recognize some people against whom costs might be ordered would not be Members of the Legislature.
***************

-----
Conceivably a person outside of the discipline of the Legislature might be found to be responsible for some of the costs of a review and it would be particularly important in that case to have access to the courts to enforce payment of an order of the Legislative Assembly.

-----
But if the member's question or concern is would traditional knowledge and Inuit values be brought to bear on the consideration of sanctions, certainly that is the intention and the Integrity Commissioner, I would anticipate would want to get the assistance/wisdom of elders at this stage of the process.

Primarily here we're probably looking for all intents and purposes at government employees that possibly may have knowledge of members or ministers that they might want to bring forward for review to the Integrity Commissioner so as to protect, like I said any individual that might have a reason to believe that there are circumstances that require a review.

I don't know, I'm not certain of the member's question, but I mean, if I can, what I think he is getting to is once that happens obviously the Integrity Commissioner would enquire of the member and try and ascertain some facts around the allegation to see whether or not there are reasonable grounds there that would require him or her to investigate a review further.

To answer this question you have to refer to clause 38, which in that it says that the Premier may in writing request that the Integrity Commissioner review the facts and give a written report as to whether a minister has contravened any, and this is the key here, additional written requirements established by the Premier for ministers.

But of course this is not a court procedure, this is not a breach of a statute in the sense of a court imposing some sanction, this is a process in which the Integrity Commissioner would make recommendations to the Legislative Assembly and the Legislative Assembly would decide whether or not the recommended sanction or sanctions would be suitable in the particular case.

-----
It is hard to anticipate what it might be, but I thought that it would be useful, and I think it is provided for in at least one provincial statute, I thought it might be useful to give the Integrity Commissioner the possibility of making a report at other times than just waiting for the end of the year.

Members have noted with interest that the 1999-2000 Loan Authorization Act established an upper limit of 10 million dollars. The 2000-2001 Act established a limit of 5 million dollars and this year, the 2001-2002 Act establishes a limit of 2 million 500 thousand dollars.

Mr. Chairman, this raises the question as to whether this represents a trend towards less demand for loans from municipalities or perhaps whether the criteria established by the government for making such loans has become more stringent in recent years.

In respect to the committee's concern of decreasing amounts, I guess my direct question would be is there a sign that there are fewer requirements for loans from the government for land development and things like that. What does that declining amount represent.

There is a possibility that there are enough developed lots in the majority of municipalities that there isn't a significant land development that is required.

-----
It could be that they are finding conventional sources of financing, commercial sources of financing that may be competitive to the municipalities. Or it could be that they are financing internally, having the capabilities being in a strong financial position to be able to carry the debt on their own land development.
***************

The decision by the Nunavut Employees' Union to conduct their vote by secret ballot is one that I applaud. A secret ballot enables an individual to express his or her opinion without fear of reprisal or retribution.
***************

In theory this process should be free and clear of intimidation. An individual should be free to express his or her own opinion and form their own thoughts without being stage managed and intimidated by their elected leadership.
*************** 
isumagijaujut qanuiginagit isumaqsuqmata, taimaattauq maligaliuqtiit maligaliuqvimi.

This forms the basis of democracy. During the recent strike activity across Nunavut, union members have picketed Government of Nunavut facilities and freely expressed their opinion on the issues at hand.
***************

Freedom of expression is constitutionally guaranteed and underpins one of the basic freedoms that we, as Canadians, enjoy.

Mr. Speaker, some union members did not hold respect for differing opinions during the recent job action. Some individuals have targeted myself, as the Minister of Finance and MLA for Cambridge Bay, as a focal point for their demonstrations and protests.

Threats by the union leaders that their membership would lose their jobs and be publicly humiliated for not participating in job action is no way to run a fair and democratic process.

After the public meeting in Chesterfield Inlet, after consultation with many of the staff in Chesterfield who work at St. Theresa's hospital, many people believe that the only viable alternative is a new facility.

That still gives us the opportunity for a renewal of the contract and, if we move towards construction, gives us the opportunity of the time for the barge and so on in a year and a half if we can get to that point.

Because at any given time you can't, it is very difficult to judge the amount of money spent last year on medical travel compared to the money spent this year because there are different incidents of disease, there might be more medivacs, and so on.

Mr. Speaker, in the past the Department of Health and Social Services, when it was under Yellowknife for example, or previously in Iqaluit, looked after policies and procedures and the actual delivery and selection criteria and priorities was done by the region.

But if there is a concern out there from some of the hamlets, from committees, that they are not sure what the direction they should be going and they need some more follow up, logistic or administrative help Mr. Speaker, then the department is willing and able to offer that assistance to the committee.

This is in respect to unpaid leave, employers allowing individuals an additional 35 weeks of unpaid leave so they would be able to receive additional unemployment insurance benefits for that period of leave.

A question for you Mr. Chairman, during the committee of the whole our Hansard is being produced, my question was in regard to the term Upinaqtuq, that you are using before calling on a member to speak.

-----
Mr. Speaker, in reference to the tabled document that I believe the member referred to, it is in fact not an anonymous document. The names were struck off the e-mail message Mr. Speaker, in order to protect the integrity and the reputation of those individuals that were involved in the e-mail.

-----
Now I have no problems Mr. Speaker, if the member wants or the House rules, to table the actual document with the names of the e-mail, the individual that sent it and the person that it went to and the references to the individuals within the e-mail document itself.

-----
Now, the reason why I think it is important that we all think about this and debate this issue Mr. Speaker, is that on the principles of confidentiality, the principle of protecting individuals that don't have the opportunity to speak or defend themselves in the House here. I think it is incumbent on us as Members of this Assembly to respect that.

Now, having said that, if the member has concerns about the validity of the e-mail, individuals or those that were involved in that tabled document, then like I said Mr. Speaker, if the House chooses that takes precedence over an individual's interests then I will respect the rules of the House and your ruling and table it again with the individuals' names intact.

-----
From past experiences, my reference to that would be that if any member, not as a minister, not as a chairman of the committees, but as a member representing his constituency or Nunavut as a whole, can submit written or oral information, not necessarily in the full context, that's the member's right.

-----
For example, when I reported about trappers in Coral Harbour, there were 45 trappers in Coral Harbour and there were some direct quotes in my document, in my presentation.
*************** 
kisianili ilanginnik atinginnik uqanngigunnammarilauqtunga.

-----
I simply omitted them in order to represent the community fairly as a whole rather than those individuals who were trapping and praised the government for giving them assistance of 25 dollars for their pelts.

-----
So I don't think yesterday's statement was an exception in this case other than it might be a little bit more closer to home to some members than maybe the Coral Harbour case was, people didn't really seem to care whether I omitted those names that were directly quoted from the report.

But according to my knowledge, when I was growing up in the Inuit culture we never thought about these things as young Inuit people living in Nunavut, this was not part of our way of life, our culture.

There was a disagreement between the union and the local government.

When there was disagreement, people from the Public Service Alliance had to come up north from the south to teach the Inuit how to do union things.

An Inuk individual even though he is a union individual member and even though he is on strike, he told his fellow Inuit people that he felt like he was not part of the community any more and it is true.

The comments that I have heard from members I agree with them.

It is the member's right to be able to voice the concerns of their constituents.

-----
However, my point of order deals specifically with a document that was tabled in this House, it comes to us with no names on it, for all intents and purposes for us as a tabled document, it is an anonymous document.
*************** 
isumavunga titiqqanik uqalimaarniq maligaliurvimmi, matuingattiariaqarmata tamakkununga uqalimaaqtaujunut nalunaiqsimanngittunut nakinngaarmangaata qaujimanaratik.

I think that tabling documents like that in this House, you know, could open the door wide open to anything being tabled in here anonymously without any idea of where it came from.
***************

It sets a dangerous precedent and I don't think that anonymous documents, whether it was anonymous before it came to this House or not, is irrelevant.
***************

I don't think those types of documents should be given into consideration, because I know what I do with anonymous letters that I get is that if someone wants to talk to me, if they want me to look at their opinions and views, they should put their name on it.

-----
Mr. Speaker, I am pleased to inform the Legislative Assembly that beginning with this taxation year, Nunavut will adopt a "tax-on-income" approach to determining its personal income taxes.
*************** 
maannaujuq, nunavummi inkamtaaksiit naasaqtauvapput pusatigut gavamatuqakkut iqqanaijaqtinut taaksiijautingigut.
-----
Currently, Nunavut income taxes are calculated as a percentage of federal personal income tax.

ataanit nutaap atuqtauniaqtuup inkamtaaksiijarnirmut akingit aaqqittauniaqput taaksiijainirmut iqqanaijaatigut atunngillutik gavamatuqakkutigut taaksiijautinginnit.
-----
Under the new system, called tax-on-income, Nunavut's personal income tax rates will apply directly to taxable income and not to basic federal tax.
***************

-----
While this concept sounds complicated it will lead to a more streamlined approach to calculating Nunavut's personal income tax and give our government more flexibility in determining its own personal tax rates and making more accurate revenue projections.
***************

Mr. Speaker, I want to assure the House that this change will not result in any Nunavut taxpayer paying any additional personal income tax.
*************** 
tamanna asijjiiniq asiaguurutautuinnaqpuq naasaitillugit nunavummi imminnuungajunut taaksiijautinut.
-----
This change is simply a different way of calculating Nunavut's personal taxes.

All provincial governments across Canada have adopted this approach to determining personal income taxes, except the province of Quebec which has used this method since the second world war.
*************** 
tamakkiik juukaan amma nunatsiaq atulilaarivut tamatuminga 2001-mi taaksilirinirmut.

Both the Yukon and the Northwest Territories will also be adopting this method for the 2001 taxation year.

-----
The Canada Customs and Revenue Agency will continue to administer Nunavut personal income tax as they do in all jurisdictions across Canada, except for the province of Quebec and they will continue to do so at no cost to our government.

Furthermore Mr. Speaker, those who file personal income taxes will continue to have the benefit of a single Canada and Nunavut tax return.

-----
Mr. Speaker, adopting tax on income for this tax year will save the Government of Nunavut approximately 200 thousand dollars in implementation costs that would normally be required to adopt this method of determining territorial income taxes.
*************** 
tamanna pijjutiqaqpuq piliriqatigiinnitinnit kanatau gavamakkunginnit atuliqtillugit.

This is due to our co-operation with the Government of Canada in adopting this approach.

Mr. Speaker, I believe all members of this House will find this report to be of great interest. The Conference Board of Canada provides an optimistic outlook for the Nunavut economy and they forecast a sustained rate of growth in our wage economy of 2.42 percent a year for the next 20 years.

Yesterday we heard in this House some very strong comments concerning the conduct of the union over the past weeks and months leading up to the recent vote on the government's final offer.

Mr. Speaker, as members know, I also have strong views on the need for a relationship between the government and the union that is based on respect.
***************

To be honest Mr. Speaker, I don't believe that the comments made yesterday in this House were helpful in moving forward.

-----
Mr. Speaker, I don't agree with everything that was done on either side of the recent dispute and speculating about personal agendas is just as needlessly confrontational as other tactics.
***************

Mr. Speaker, all of us as elected members felt the heat from our constituents on this issue.

-----
Mr. Speaker, earlier during the session I suggested that the way to go in the future for our jurisdiction would be to allow arbitration in the event that the bargaining process does not succeed.

-----
In a jurisdiction where many families simply cannot afford to go on strike because of the fear of losing their homes or the ability to feed their children, this would avoid a climate where accepting any offer that is on the table is seen to be better than the alternative.

-----
Mr. Speaker, it is my hope that when we reconvene in Iqaluit for the fall session, that the government will be in a position to tell the House that it has had a constructive summer building bridges to its employees and their representatives and not tearing them down.

Mr. Tootoo, just a comment on your statement and that it does border on a point of order given the fact that it relates to the point of order that you raised yourself earlier that is still under review and has still not been ruled on by the chair.

In the spirit of trying to keep harmony in the House, we will let it go and I would remind members that in the future that when something has not yet been ruled on that members should stay away from it until it has been ruled on.

I think the young people that staged the mock Assembly here, there was really a tug at my heart strings here when they were asking questions that maybe we should be asking more in regards to why don't people get more money, why don't people get more houses, why don't people get more of the most basic necessities in life.

-----
I'll read from the text here, the Member for Iqaluit Centre raised a point of order in relation to a document which was tabled yesterday by the Member from Cambridge Bay.
***************

-----
The document in question was a copy of an e-mail correspondence between an unknown number of individuals received from an unidentified source. Prior to tabling the document, the member quoted from it in his member's statement.
*************** 
pimmariuvuq uqausirigianga titiqqaq uqausiulaunngimmat katimajimut, katimaji namminiq uqausiqarataarma ilulinginnit.

It is important to note that the correspondence was not addressed to the member, as the member himself noted in describing its contents.

-----
While there is no general prohibition on the tabling of private correspondence, or indeed e-mail correspondence, the language used and the comments made must be such that they would be in order if spoken by a member.

During the debate of the point of order earlier today, the Member for Cambridge Bay indicated that he would be willing if so directed to table the document in question with the names of the correspondents not blacked out.

-----
The Chair must advise members that it has not yet had sufficient time to consider the very important issue of whether it is appropriate for any member to table what appears to be a private communication between individuals not intended for the member or for general public distribution.
*************** 
tamanna ajjiunngittuq pilirijjusiujuq uqausirijavut maligaliurvimmi amma iksivautaq kajusijumavuq qaujimagiattiarluni.

This is a non-precedented procedural question in our Assembly and the Chair wishes to proceed with this with the utmost caution.

-----
It is mindful of the comments made earlier with respect to the need to ensure a balance for the members' right to draw attention to public issues and the right of all residents to appropriate levels of privacy, especially in respect to the statements that may have been intended for private communication only.

I've asked the member from Cambridge Bay to present the Chair with the original version of the document so the Chair will have all the facts at his disposal prior to delivering the final ruling, which I intend to serve as guidance for all members in the future.

But, I think that it will benefit all of Nunavut and there are a lot of questions in here in regards to if there is more consumption, if we convert to this, if we convert to that, if the price of diesel fuel goes up, fossil fuels, greenhouse effects and things like that.

I think it is fair to point out Mr. Speaker, that the pre-feasibility study was done in conjunction with the Northwest Territories Power Corporation along with the Manitoba Hydro, prior to division.
***************

Is there the possibility for wind generation, hydro development and so on.

-----
So our next point would be Mr. Speaker, is for a thorough study of Nunavut's alternative energy opportunities and potential and then Mr. Speaker, to look at whatever types of emerging technologies we may be able to use and Mr. Speaker, I am in the process of trying to bring that forward as we speak.

-----
In the pre-feasibility study it says, "that in these circumstances we recommend that the pre-feasibility study be used as a starting point for a thorough study of Nunavut's energy options, including hydro transmission lines, wind power, low head hydro and other emerging technologies".

Mr. Speaker, when we brought this issue up and you brought it up as a regular member yourself two years ago and I followed up in the last year or so, the issue here is the transmission line from wherever it is, Manitoba or Saskatchewan into the Kivalliq.
*************** 
sivumuattigasuarnitta pijjutingali ujaranniaqtuqatuinnariaqarmimmat.

Now the reason that we are pushing this and emphasizing it is that there may be some mines on the bubble.

Could the minister commit today that he would look at doing a thorough study of all Nunavut's power options, but also try to fast track this transmission study or the next part of this transmission line in the Kivalliq also.
***************

When we went forward with the power corporation creating the Nunavut Power Corporation, there were quite a few people within government, outside of government, in the private sector, in the public sector, in the Northwest Territories, in Hay River in the head office saying it can't be done, it wouldn't be done.

-----
I would like to ask, the subsidy that you provide for one fox pelt of 25 dollars, the foxes are sold by the trapper and they auction them in Vancouver and the trapper has to reimburse the 25 dollars to the government.

-----
I would like to ask, even though there is going to be a review done prior to the fox trapping season around November or December, in the beginning of the season, this 25 dollar subsidy, can you change it so that the trappers won't have to reimburse the 25 dollars.

-----
Mr. Speaker, I didn't indicate it was a capacity problem, I said it was a priority among other priorities that department has, it hasn't been the main priority of the department given as all members know, the focus has been on the job action and trying to mitigate any negative effects as the result of the job action of the NEU and that's been taking place, quite frankly for the past couple of months and it has taken the focus away from a lot of other initiatives.

I believe last month Mr. Speaker, we provided every member with a package of non-smoking materials, including posters and so on, and the members will note that beginning this past week we have seen a new commercial on the air starring the well known director of Atanarjuat, Zacharias Kunuk, who is starring in a non-smoking video with a very attractive little girl about 10 years old, who seems to be my daughter.

The most significant announcement made by the Government in both the Commissioner's Opening Address and the Budget Address was that the GN will be undertaking a major program and expenditure review exercise during the coming year.

the forecasting of an $11.9 million accumulated deficit at the end of 2001-2002, and the renewal of the Formula Financing Agreement for a three-year term, coupled with a commitment that the federal and territorial governments will undertake a joint review of Nunavut's "fiscal capacity and needs."

In December 2000, provincial and territorial Ministers of Finance publicly called on the federal government to restore the 5% cut made in 1996-97 to the expenditure base in the Territorial Formula Financing Program.

While Members are disappointed that this was not acted on by the federal government, the willingness of Ottawa to recognize that Nunavut has legitimate concerns regarding the adequacy of funding arrangements is encouraging.

Not only does the Department of Education receive the largest amount of O&M funding of any department, almost 40 cents out of every capital dollar spent in the coming year will go to education facilities.

Although the NHC received $14 million in capital funding from the GN, this is still more than a 25% cut from the $19 million received in 2000-2001.

Health spending remains almost static from last year, and Members question whether the base funding for the Department of Health and Social Services is adequate to meet the needs of Nunavummiut.

Members would note that in 1999-2000, Health and Social Service's share of total expenditures was just over 20%. In 2001-2002, it has fallen to 18%.

In their Report on the 2000-2001 Budget, Committees noted that, "without full staff and all programs in place, it is difficult to adequately assess how delivering programs in Nunavut may require adjustments in the budget.

In his final report to Parliament, the Auditor General of Canada made the following observations with respect to the major federal program review exercise of the mid-1990s:

The cuts were made, but poorer service often resulted."

The first technique was program downloading which, in essence, allowed the federal government to pass on the responsibilities and costs of public programs and services to lower levels of government without compensation.

To date, it is unclear what impact these reviews will have on departmental budgets and the Government's overall fiscal position.

Committees would suggest, however, that given the cost of these reviews ($150,000 was set aside in CGT's 2000-2001 budget for the Municipal Financing Review alone), it would be undesirable to simply scrap work already accomplished.

It is important that it clearly define at the outset what is and is not "on the table" for review, whether the issue is the structure of government or options for alternative service delivery mechanisms.

The accompanying table and chart at the end of this report illustrates the tough constraints under which the Government operates.

For example:
*************** 
2001-2002-mi, akitujuqturutiujut 10.5 pusagilauqtangit katillugit nunavut gavamakkungita akiliutinginnut.
-----
In 2001-2002, capital expenditures account for 10.5% of total GN spending.
***************

-----
In order to increase capital's share of total spending by just a single percentage point, $6,794,430 would have to be cut from other areas.
*************** 
1997-98-ngutillugu, akitujuqturutingit nunatsiap gavamakkunginnut akiliutaulauqtut 13 pusalluangulauqtut.
-----
In 1997-98, capital's share of total GNWT spending was approximately 13%.
***************

-----
In order to bring GN capital spending up to this level, a total of over $17,000,000 would have to be cut from other areas.
***************

-----
This reinforces the need for the GN to aggressively push for federal infrastructure investment that genuinely takes into account the cost of providing services to Canadian citizens in the most challenging geography to be found in the country.

-----
As with governments in every other Canadian jurisdiction, education, health and social services spending accounts for the largest component of total government spending, with the exception of debt service costs.
*************** 
nunavumiut suli aksummariujuq qujanaqtumiipput akiliksanginnut pijitsiqtauninginnut akilijariaqarsimangimmata.
-----
Nunavut remains in the fortunate position of not yet having debt service costs.

-----
In the coming fiscal year, 43% of all GN spending will be in the areas of education, health and social services.
***************

Compared to many other Canadian jurisdictions, Nunavut demonstrates leadership in its commitment to education funding.

It is striking to note that health and social services' share of total government spending in the three northern jurisdictions is comparatively less than in southern provinces.

-----
The GN's program review must look closely at the area of health and social services spending and consider the extent to which such national initiatives as the Romanow Commission can be used as a vehicle to articulate the challenges facing health care delivery in the North.
***************

-----
Replacing Nunavut's decaying health infrastructure is a priority -- the actual dollar costs to the Government for the three regional health facilities must be determined.
*************** 
qanigijanganiittut 30 pusan katillugit nunavut gavamakkungita akiliutigivaktanginni akiliqtuijjutiqaqattarmata tunniqqusianut amma ikajurusianut.

Almost 30% of total GN spending goes to compensation and benefits.

Although this is substantial, the GN continues to face pressure in recruiting skilled and dedicated staff.

-----
Program review must ask whether the price of dealing with high staff turnover, such as removal costs and overtime, is affordable, as compared to providing compensation, benefits and professional development opportunities that build a stable, long-term workforce.
*************** 
kiinaujalimaanut akiliutaujulimaanut nunavut gavamakkunginnit, qanigijanganiittut 20 sansit tunijauqattaqtut kiinaujaqaqtittijjutinut amma ikajurusianut.

For every dollar spent by the GN, almost 20 cents goes to grants and contributions.
***************

Much of this spending is subject to forced growth, especially in the areas of municipal and school funding.
***************

The results and outcomes of grants and contributions spending must be evaluated.
***************

Out of every dollar spent by the GN, over 20 cents is in the area of contract services.

-----
While such major contracts as the $13 million for RCMP services are relatively inflexible, program review must look at this area closely.

Over the past two years, the GN has managed to realize one-time savings that result from unfilled positions.

-----
Given that it is not likely that the GN will fill over 500 currently unfilled positions in 2001-2002, and assuming that no existing staff leave during the period, it may be tempting to conclude that unfilled positions are, by definition, unnecessary ones.

-----
Program review must look at the structure of departments, but do so in a manner that draws on the experience and suggestions of front-line staff, and not simply be an exercise in the manipulation of organization charts.

In addition, the challenges facing departments in the area of staff housing must be addressed.

As it is not possible for one territorial Assembly to legislate on behalf of the other, it is possible that further difficulties will arise in situations where Members of each Assembly have differing views on the merits of the same piece of proposed legislation.

A common theme in departmental 2001-2002 business plans is the difficulty presently faced by the GN in meeting its recruitment and retention goals, and the resulting morale and productivity problems.

Although the Department of Human Resource's business plan clearly identifies and articulates this problem, including such underlying factors as the high cost of living in Nunavut and the lack of affordable housing, the plan does not outline much in the way of specific strategies to address this challenge.

Members acknowledge that the necessary first step to addressing this issue is a collective bargaining resolution that recognizes the need for the GN to be more competitive with other Nunavut organizations in terms of compensation and benefits.

-----
Members would note that morale problems in the public service are often linked to such issues as perceptions of unfair and inequitable treatment of employees in such areas as the allocation and condition of staff housing, the extent to which positions in the public service are filled on a fair and competitive basis, and the lack of resources and commitment on the part of the government to support professional development.

Members have noted during the course of their review of business plans that the number of positions in departmental organizational charts continues to expand each year, even while current GN job vacancy rates remain at or near the 20-25% level. While recognizing that there is not likely to be a "final" size for the public service as a whole, it would nonetheless be useful to establish a clearer picture of the size of the public service in the medium and long-term.

Last February, in my third Budget Address as Minister of Finance, I set out a fiscal plan that stressed the need for our government to live within its means and to maximize the benefits from our limited financial resources.

-----
Mr. Speaker, I am pleased to inform the Legislature that since our budget last winter, Nunavut's short-term fiscal situation has improved considerably.
***************

-----
This improvement can be attributed to three factors - a larger than anticipated accumulated surplus at the end of our first year, a stronger fiscal position for 2000-01, and increased transfers from the Government of Canada for 2001-02.
*************** 
uqaqti, arraaguvut pigialisaaqtillugu nalauttaalauqtugut gavamavut aulajjutinit akiliksaqarniarasugillutigu $38 miliannik kiinaujalirinnaup arraaguanut 2000-01-mut, amma isulikkajaqtillugu arraagu nuatausimajut amiakkut qanigijaanikkajarninginnik $23 milian.
-----
Mr. Speaker, earlier this year it was estimated that our government would have an operating deficit of approximately 38 million dollars for fiscal 2000-01, and would end the year with an accumulated surplus of nearly 23 million dollars.
*************** 
sivulliqpaattiat kiinaujaqturutivinirnut unikkaaliaqutivut, saqqitaulauqtut upirngaaq, nalunairsilauqtut nunavumiut arraagumik sivulliqpaarsiutingannik isulittilaurningannik nuatsisimallutik aulajjutinut amiakkunik qanigijanganiittunik $69 milian.
-----
Our first Public Accounts, released in the spring, indicated that Nunavut ended its first fiscal year with an accumulated operating surplus of around 69 million dollars.
***************

-----
It now appears that for 2000-2001 we had an operating surplus of 4 million dollars - meaning that we ended the year with an accumulated surplus of approximately 73 million dollars.
***************

Mr. Speaker, largely as a result of increased transfers from the Government of Canada, our fiscal position for the current year also has improved.

We now anticipate formula financing payments of approximately 655 million dollars for the 2001-2002 year, or 92 million dollars above our budget estimate.
*************** 
taakkununga piqasiutijaujuq unursigiarutinginnut atausiaqlutik akiliutauqattaqtuq $46 milian tunijaulaurninganut.

***************

The initiatives presented in the supplementary appropriation bills increase budgeted expenditures for the current year by approximately 64 million dollars.

-----
The total operations and maintenance budget has been increased by approximately 38 million dollars to meet a number of expenditure pressures, including operating funding for the Department of Health and Social Services and the recent NEU settlement.
*************** 
katitainnarillugit akitujunut kiinaujaqturutiksat unursigiaqtausimajuq qanigijangani $26 milian, taakkua piqasiujjisimajut kiinaujanik immaqaa $22 miliannik pilirijjutauniaqtillugit angiqtaulaursimajunut arraagumi 2000-01-mi aturumaaqtuni pijariiqtaujunnalaursimangittut taitsumani kiinaujalirinnaup arraaguata iluani.
-----
The total capital budget has been increased by approximately 26 million dollars, which includes funding of about 22 million dollars approved for projects in the 2000-2001 budget that could not be completed in this fiscal year.
*************** 
kiinaujalirinnaup arraagungani 2001-02-mi niriuktugut aulajjutittinnut atunginnikuit arraaguni kingunittinni $15 miliannguniarasugillutigu amma katitainnarilugit aulajjutinut amiakkuqarniarasugilluta $37 miliannik.

For this fiscal year 2001-02, we are anticipating operating lapses of 15 million dollars and an overall operating surplus of approximately 37 million dollars.

-----
I must stress Mr. Speaker, that without the 46 million dollar one-time formula financing payment and the indicated lapses, we would have an operating deficit this year.
*************** 
uattiaq nalunairsiqqaugama, qaakkanniagut atausiaq&utik akiliutaujut aturlugit upalungaijautiliurunnarniaratta kiinaujat atuqtauninginnut.

Our improved fiscal position and significant accumulated reserves gives us an opportunity to provide much needed funding to deal with some of our more immediate needs.

But we must not squander this opportunity Mr. Speaker.

In light of the tragic actions of September 11 and slowing economic growth in Canada and throughout the world, there exists considerable uncertainty about the future.

-----
The Government of Canada has sent a clear message - it will meet all of its existing commitments, including those to provinces and territories, and will allocate additional resources to new priority areas such as security and defence measures.
***************

Mr. Speaker, slowing growth in both provincial expenditures and the Canadian economy will result in smaller increases to Nunavut's formula financing grant.

Through my efforts at these conferences, as well as one on one meetings with my counterparts, Premiers across the country support our call to the Federal Government to re-examine how its national programs are funded for our territory in order that we may begin to see realistic, tangible benefits from these programs.

When you look at an individual to see whether they are a good leader or not it is important that leaders should be accountable to the people who voted for them and not think of themselves as being in a higher position than the ordinary public.
*************** 
sivuliqtitsiavaq kiugunnatsiariaqarajarpuq ammalu nalliqquarijauluni taikkununga.

A good leader should be responsive and interact with them equally as if each one is on the same level that he is.

We would not be doing this today.

When bills are tabled we discuss the contents of the bill and then if we used our procedures and voted for the time zone, I am sure it would not have passed, but it was already done before we had a chance to make the decision.
***************

For that reason, if the government is going to table a new bill, the regular members should be informed as to whether the government will take our input or not.

So these are the examples that I am using.

This document is a good example of leadership because the government wrote down what it wanted to do.

This is probably because the government doesn't have a lot of money. But there are some important things that haven't been done and I hope our leadership review will look at these things.
***************

We should be working with elders and youth together and this is not happening.

Yet they are not following through with funding to allow the Department of Culture, Language, Elders & Youth to carry out what is important to work properly.
***************

-----
It is not a budget priority.

I think the leadership should be a good example to the youth.

A leader should always keep his or her ears open in the communities and in all of Nunavut.

They should be able to work with the issues that need to be addressed instead of keeping things inside and working on them alone.
***************

-----
They should be aware of their surroundings in their communities and what is happening in Nunavut.

A good leader should be a true open and accessible.

Some ministers are very open to the Members of the Legislative Assembly and listen to them.

Some respond to letters in a timely manner and some don't.

There may be some times that the ministers need some support.

It also provides a standard to measure the performance of the government. The government also showed leadership by initiating a number of departmental policy review processes, such as the income support review and the establishment of the law reform commission to review a number of pieces of legislation for Nunavut.
***************

I believe that the Cabinet has been working to make Nunavut a better place to live for its residents.

-----
Over the last two and a half years, a lot of emphasis has been put on decentralized communities. Deputy Ministers and key departmental officials must go to the non-decentralized communities, become aware of their needs, understand, and appreciate what will work in each community.
***************

We aren't doing treatment now in Nunavut, so we should move more on prevention programs with departments working together.

One of the most effective programs in our community was the RCMP DARE program that was run in our schools.

Why aren't we training Inuit RCMP Constables in the DARE program to go and work in the schools in every community in Nunavut.

At least three, if not more departments could do this very easily if they were working together.

Justice, Education and Health and Social Services. Do we even have a drug and alcohol program for people in conflict with the law.

These are not issues for one department alone.

***************

Every department should be working on Inuit Qaujimajatuqangit initiatives from their department and they should be working together collaboratively to make this happen as well.
***************

They are doing it now.

We are learning from our mistakes and this is one thing that is good about Nunavut.

***************

One of the things that I can say about the Premier, is the exemplary leadership that he has done on decentralization.
*************** 
angiqsimaniqaqsimavuq siammaqtirinirmut amma kajusivaktuq saqqitittivaktunilu.
-----
He has committed to decentralization and he follows through and delivers.
***************

-----
When people high up in the Department of Education were publicly saying that decentralization is not going to work, he gave them strict direction.
***************

-----
Without this Premier, I don't think it would have happened.

I would also like to say that the Premier is receptive.
***************

I can go in and talk to him at any time, he tries to make things happen in spite of his bureaucracy.

I guess the bureaucracy of the Executive & Intergovernmental Affairs is one of my key concerns with the Premier.

The Premier has been helping to address the leadership problems of some key officials in other government departments, but I feel he needs to look at his own department too.

Another concern I have is whether the Premier has a strong enough federal connection for us in how he is ensuring that key people in his department have strong connections with the Federal Government, who is our banker.
*************** 
kanatalimaatigut piuttiaqtuq.
-----
On the national front he is excellent.

Some don't seem to be properly prepared to address issues raised in the House through questions, they either don't have the information, they haven't been briefed by their staff, or they don't care to give a full answer.
*************** 
ilangit ministaujut tiliuqtauqquujisimavaktut pilirijinginnut amma sivuliurinirmik saqqitittigatit ministauvviminit uvvaluunniit nunavumut.

Some of the ministers seem to be led by their staff and they are not showing leadership to their departments or to Nunavut.
***************

Mr. Chairman, the qualities I would like to see in a leader are the following.
*************** 
naalagunnarlutit, qaujimalutit qangakkut nallianguungagunnarmangaarmik, sivuliurinirmut pilirinikkut, pikkaulutit amma angiqsimaniqarlutit.

They are able to listen, they know when to be flexible and when to flex, they lead by example, they are professional and committed.
***************

They recognize that this is their job and they don't take things personally, including criticism.
*************** 
immagaa angilaangujuq nunavuumut, sivuliqtittiavait piruqsaijuksauvut asingita sivuliuqtiunirmik.
-----
Perhaps most importantly for Nunavut, good leaders should build leadership in others.
*************** 
qingaummi piliriaksami uqausiqaqpuq nunalinni pijunnanirmik sanavallianirmik amma namminiq parrijunnanirmik nunavumiutigut.
-----
The Bathurst Mandate talks about building community capacity and self-reliance in Nunavummiut.

But we seem to be putting our emphasis on individual oriented leadership of ministers focusing on power, control, charisma and influence.
*************** 
aksuruutiqarniqsaujariaqaqtugut katujjiniujumik sivuliqtiuniqarnirmik sivuliqtini amma pijunnatittillattaalirlutit inunnit nunalinni.
-----
We should be emphasizing a more team oriented leadership of the whole Cabinet and one that would truly empower people at the community level.

-----
To achieve this leadership would be seen as a collection of skills and actions that encourage broad based participation, facilitates consensus building, distributes shared responsibilities, develops new leaders and enables groups to work effectively to achieve shared goals.
*************** 
tamanna tukiliarniqsaugajaqpuq turaagaliangusimajunit qingaummi piliriaksanit.

This would be more consistent with the goals set out in the Bathurst Mandate.

This model of leadership would also recognize the strength of each Cabinet member and by putting them together in a team, they would pool their strengths and shore up any weaknesses.
***************

Our District Education Authority says they have never been consulted less on important issues effecting education. The government is supposed to be closer to the people and devolution and inclusion are supposed to help make this happen.

-----
Perhaps the problem is that there are too many people in senior positions who have never lived in the communities or are very new to the north and they are disconnected from the people and the principles laid out in the Bathurst Mandate.
*************** 
pimmariujut asijjirutit attuijut nunavumiunit isumaqsaqsiuqtauttiariqaqput amma suqquimajauttiarlutit amma uqausiqarviutitaulutit nunavumiunut.

It is important that the government takes risks and tries things for the betterment of Nunavut. In some ways the time zone debacle was a good example of leadership.
***************

-----
The government tried it and when there was opposition over time, said we made a mistake, and they modified what they had done. Although the process of putting the one time zone in place may have been wrong, the government learned that you can't short circuit consultation and you can't take for granted consensus or support.
*************** 
gavamakkut kiinaujaliuqtiunngilat.
-----
Important changes effecting Nunavummiut need time for consideration and understanding as well as input from the people of Nunavut. Cabinet needs to be more aware of the political ramifications of decisions, they need more political experience and insight in the advice that they are receiving to identify how their policy and program ideas impact on communities and how the public will feel.

I would like to make a brief statement and then just one question to the Premier.
***************

-----
Early on with the construction of the new Baker Lake school, the Jonah Amitnaaq replacement, I was talking to the architect in the initial design stages.
*************** 
taanna kampaniuju sanalauqmata amma qanuilinganirigajaqtangini ilinniaqviit nigiani maannituupaup allait nunanginni.
-----
This company was building and designing schools in northern Manitoba on reservations.
*************** 
uqausirijaulluni angijumi atuutiniarianginni kiinaujani aulajjutiginiaqtanginnu imaqautinuk atianu illuujuup qattirutinginnullu.
-----
A topic was brought up about us putting huge amounts of dollars into fire suppression storage tanks under the buildings and sprinkler systems.
*************** 
pivallianinga, nigiani maanituupaup nunalinginni ajjipalugaluangi uvagut, sanattaratiunniit angijumi imaqautimi atiani ilinniaqviup qamitsititsanginnillu, ilagiaqsituinnalauqtuit puiqjuraqvimi saniraani ilinniaqviit akilikkanniriatutjaagatillu.
-----
The conversation got to, in northern Manitoba in communities much like ours, instead of building hundreds of thousands of litres of storage tanks under the schools and sprinkler systems, they were adding swimming pools on to the side of the schools at no additional costs.
*************** 
atuagalirijinga uqalauqma akikinniqsaulanganingani sanagia puijjuraqvimi saniraani ilinniaqviu amma atuqlugu imaqautitsaa qattirijuqsiutinginnu.
-----
In fact the architect at the time said it was cheaper to build a swimming pool on the side of the school and use that water storage for fire suppression.
*************** 
immaqa ilinniaqvi ikuallaniqat imaiqtituinnarunnarajaraviuk puijjuraqvia amma aqutiqarajaqma sullulinni puijjuraqvianu ikuallaniqa qamitsitigijunnarajaqsugu.
-----
If the school caught fire you just empty the swimming pool and you had pumps into the swimming pool to put the fires out.
*************** 
uqausiqaqaugatta aaqigiaqtauniqni nunaligijattinni, amma ujjirijaqasunga nalliatuinna maligaliuqtimi nangisijuqajjaangimma uqaqniarluni puijjurataarumangigia nunaliani.
-----
We talk about infrastructure in our communities, and I am sure there is not one MLA that would stand up in this room and say that they don't want a swimming pool in their communities.
*************** 
uqausiriluaqtarali uqaluaqtuilli akikinniqsaunajarianga amma puijjuraqviqalaqiluni nunalit iqailisaqviuvanniarluni ilinniaqtinut. isumagilauqtarali piujugiangani amma isumagijauqaulluni tamanna, isumatsiavaujuutigillugulu.
-----
The point that I am getting to here is that they said it would be cheaper and you would have an extra swimming pool in your community for phys-ed classes.
***************

I went to department A and they said no we can't do that because department B, and I am talking I never went to the ministers, I went to the officials.

Yeah, it's a good idea Glenn, but I am not sure if department A and B could agree that this is a good idea and it works within the scope of our current policies in the department.

-----
And I'm sitting there going this is not about the policies in the department, this is about providing a swimming pool in the community for the children and providing infrastructure at a lower cost.
*************** 
tamanna isumagijauttiavalaurmat.
-----
It was an innovative idea.

I didn't have the resources as an MLA in my constituency accounts to fly over and meet individually with the three ministers involved.

-----
But you know, it's things like this that really, really come home to a territory of 27 thousand people. We have twenty seven hundred civil servants and I sometimes wonder if they're here to assist us in making the community better, in accordance with the Bathurst Mandate.

-----
I'm hoping that the department officials that are watching this today or sitting there writing this down, if they are going to design some schools in the future that they are going to use some kind of brain power to think about doing some innovative things to provide additional infrastructure in our communities.
***************

But, I just wanted to bring this out because it was like running into three brick walls dealing with the departmental officials on simple little issues that could be innovative in Nunavut.
***************

And it's not like, you know, I wanted to build a whole different school or do something different it was just a simple, you know, response.

-----
And one of the things that came up and it really hit home to me, I was in a small community, and I'm not going to say which one, an elder came up to me and said, Glenn, we're building visitors' centres in Nunavut.
*************** 
sananasuarmijugu pularattunut tukisigiarviksaugajaqtumik nunavungmi nunalilimaangujuni.

We're trying to build visitors' centres in every community.

But they're only open anywhere from four to six weeks and then they're shut down and these are perfectly good facilities.

And on the other hand I hear my colleagues saying that we need youth drop-in centres in every community, mine too.
***************

-----
And I have youth groups that are meeting with me on a regular basis looking for funding from the minister of Culture, Language, Elders & Youth to build a new drop-in facility so they can meet with the elders to provide some kind of a drop-in centre or things like that.
***************

-----
But to sit down and work with the departmental officials to try to say okay we have a visitors' centre, can we expand it a bit to provide a drop-in centre.
***************

-----
But then I'd have to go to minister E, D and F who'd probably say well our policies don't include to pay for wages or to pay for O & M on D, C and A.

-----
So my question to you, what I'm getting to here, is can you please, please sit down with your ministers and tell them or advise them to sit down with their staff and try to do a co-ordinated approach on the simple little things that won't cost us additional dollars.
*************** 
qaujimallunga, ministaunniruma, tamakkua nunavulimaamut nammaktinnasuarajarakkik kiinaujait atuqtuksait.

And I know, if I was a minister, that I would be very territorial with my budget.

I would say well oh that's my budget, you can't have it.

But if we could have a more co-ordinated humanistic approach to try to provide opportunities and facilities in our communities then I think it would be better for all people in Nunavut.

-----
I think over the next two years I'm going to make a point of going into your office and saying and explaining to you different things I don't think are happening in regards to maybe yes we can build a swimming pool on the side of the school and it will cost less and we'll save money.

And the money that we save maybe we can open up those visitor's centres to be drop-in centres for our young people in our communities.

During our sittings the regular members ask questions to the ministers in reference to our communities or to the whole of Nunavut. We ask those questions for a good reason.

It is because we can't do it on our own.

When we get a response saying we have a policy or rule that prevents us doing whatever you are requesting, we want to help the people of Nunavut out there but there is a policy or regulation that prevents us from doing so.

I believe we will continue to do that but at the same time we have to ensure that there is capacity at the local level before we transfer additional responsibilities. So we make sure that there are capable bodies at the local level and in some cases, where it is cheaper for our government to carry out the functions with one employee who handles a number of communities, we will probably continue to do that.

Could you also commit to me that you are going go give your Power Corporation minister a little bit more of a prod and some flexibility for him to give these power corporation people a bit wider scope.

-----
You know listening to the minister's opening comments I'm disappointed and concerned over the fact that I didn't hear, and it's something that we've been told all long and I believe the Premier even mentioned in his comments, the fact that with the dissolution of the district boards that more authority and responsibility would be devolved down to the community level.

You know the minister is supposed to be devolving those responsibilities to the District Education Authorities in their communities and we were told that as MLAs by the government when they wanted to abolish the Divisional Boards of Education.

No reallocations of teachers, teaching positions, resources, a lot of this is done now without any consultation with the DEAs. The DEAs hardly have a role now in the operations of the schools or any control.

They didn't start off very well, it was quite some time ago and they sent out big packages with the draft act and a bunch of information with no explanation and told to review it and tell me what you think.

I would like to ask the minister, and he can probably guess from my statement, my comments, is his department committed to devolving more responsibility and authority for education and the administration of the schools to the District Education Authorities along with the resources, the resource support to enable them to carry out these responsibilities as was promised to us and the District Education Authorities when the divisional boards were abolished.

As most members are aware the District Education Authorities in each of the Councils are funded through the funding formula and it is very important that this be considered during the talks of where the DEA is wanting to take over some responsibilities, that they have the financing to carry out those tasks and that can be addressed at the time.

The reason why it varies is that some communities under their hamlet status they own their own school bus under the municipality and in some communities they don't even have a school bus.

Also in the three regions, Kitikmeot, Kivalliq and Qikiqtaaluk, the people who are responsible for dealing with these bussing services, they do get the contract or the people who run the bussing services to negotiate with the DEAs at the local level.

-----
Are there any further questions. I want to remind members that some members have used up more than half of their allotted questions and we're not quite finished the first minister yet.
*************** 
taimali tukiqarajaqpuq qimirruniujuq pijariiqpat apiqqutiksataqajjaagunniqtuq ilanginnut ministaujunut ammalu akauluarani tamakkununga ministaujunut.
-----
So that means that possibly by the end of the review there could be no questions left for some of the ministers which is frustrating for the ministers.
*************** 
isumattiarasuarlusi apiqqutigijunnaqtasi atuqtainnarigutsiuk mannaujuq kinguniagut apirsurunnajjaangittusi.
-----
So keep that in mind using up your questions now they won't be there at the end of the day.
***************

If I am not mistaken, are we finished with the Minister Responsible for Education.

-----
We are not.

Mr. McLean:

Thank you, Mr. Chairman.

I haven't made a statement yet for the minister.

-----
I had a prepared statement but my colleague Mr. Tootoo covered most of the points in regards to devolution of authority to DEAs. Mr. Minister.
*************** 
ministaa, ilinniaqtulirijimmariit pitaqarunniiqtitauningit, avittuqsimajuni amma tamanna ikajuqtulauqtugu maligaliuqtiullunga amma avittuqsimajuni katimajiuqatausimallunga, tamanna taimaattiarasugilauqtara gavamaujutigut.
-----
The dissolution of the board, the regional board and I supported this as an MLA and being a former member of a regional board, I think it was a step in the right direction on behalf of this government.
*************** 
ilinniaqtulirijimmariit pitaqarunniiqtitauningitigut, maanna kiuqattaniqsaqtalimmariuliqpuq, sivuniani ugaalautaujut, tuksirautaujut kiinaujanit ilanginnut amma ajjigiinngittut tuksirautit nuqqatuinnaqpalauqput ilinniaqtulirijikkunni.
-----
With the dissolution of the board, you will find there's a lot of accountability now, before a lot of phone calls, requests for funding for some things and various other requests were stopped at the board level.
*************** 
maanna pitaqarunniirmata qaujivallialiqpunga pilirijaksaqarniqsaulirama maligaliuqtiullunga pimmariujunit ilinnik uvvaluunniit avittuqsimajuni tiliurijiujumik.
-----
Now they are gone and what I'm finding, is I am having to deal more as an MLA on one on one issues with yourself or with your regional director.
*************** 
tiliuriji avittuqsimajuqutinni sivanirvigijunnammarippara amisunit nunalinni ilinniaqtulirijiit pimmariugijanginnit amma kiunngikkuninga titirarunnaqtunga ilinnut turaakautigijumik amma tamanna piugijara suuqaimma sivuliqtiullunga maligaliuqtiullunga kiujariaqaqtunga nunalinni ilinniaqtulirijinut kiggatuqpaktakkanut uqausinginnit tuksirautinginnit ilinnut.
-----
I call the director in my region quite a bit to deal with my local DEA issues and if he doesn't respond to me than I send a letter directly to you. I think that's good because it makes me as a politician as an MLA accountable to the DEAs who I pass on my comments and requests to you personally.
*************** 
taimannak ilinniaqtulirijimmariit pitaqarunniirningit piujuunasugivara, kisianili tusaqpallialiqpunga nunalinni ilinniaqtulirijiqutinni ilaannikkut iqiasunniqaqpammat, tamaagunngittuugaluaq, katimajiujunit kiujaunasugiaksaq pimmariujunit.
-----
So I think the dissolution of the boards is a good thing but I'm starting to hear from my DEA that there's a reluctance sometimes, not all the time, the reluctance on the part of the board people to respond to them on issues.
*************** 
uvangali piliriaksaqtaarisivappara pilirinasugianganik ilinnik taakkunani turaakautigijumik katimajiit iqqanaijaqtinginnit avittuqsimajuni.
-----
I take it upon myself to deal with you on those issues and directly with the board staff in my region.
*************** 
piusikkannirniarasugijara tukitaaqtigiaqsimaliruttigu nunalinni ilinniaqtulirijiit.
-----
I think it is going to get better once we define the roles more of DEAs.
*************** 
uppirusullarippunga nunalinni ilinaniqtulirijiit tigusijuksaummata amisuutauniqsanit kamagijarialinnit ilinnianirmut nunaliktigut.
-----
I'm a firm believer that DEAs should assume most of the responsibilities for education issues at the community level.
*************** 
tapaittiaqpappunga qikiqtaalummi nunalinni ilinniaqtulirijiit kiinaujatigut aulaniqanngimmata namminiq piliriviqutiminut iqqanaijaqtiqutiminullu.
-----
I'm quite aghast at the fact that in Baffin that none of their DEAs have financial authority over their own facilities and staffing.
*************** 
qaujimavutit uvannut taiksumanituqauqquujimmat angajuqqaaqarviulluta isumaqsurniaratta piujuunasugijattinnit iliksinnut nunalinniittunit taakkunani.

You know to me it looks like it's just the old colonial attitude of we're the capital we're going to do what we think is good for you guys out in those communities.
***************

I'm hoping we can beat that out of the government in the next few years.
*************** 
aippaa uqausirijumajara amma 17 sikatuinnarnit piviksaqaqtunga inuit ilisaijiit.
-----
My next issue and it looks like I only have 17 seconds left, is Inuit teachers.

-----
They go through this training program for two to three years, they get into the schools and most times than not, they are in the classroom with the largest amount of students, 30-1 25-1, 26-1 and they get the blame, later in 7-8-9 when the kids are behind a year or two.
*************** 
amisutigut ilinniaqtiit quttiniqsani ilinniavinni inuunngilat.
-----
In most cases, most of the teachers in the high schools are non-Inuit.

-----
I've not seen once in my history being involved in the DEA in ten years, I have made requests and I said it to Standing Committees before you were minister, that we should do more training at the local level of our Inuit teachers to get them up to professional levels so that later on they can maybe teach in the high schools.
***************

And it's seriously lacking.

-----
In fact, if we're not careful we're going to lose most of them because I hear that unrest out there in the elementary schools grads who are teaching thirty kids it's difficult.
***************

-----
Why don't I go up the hill and get a job at the power corporation or with Sport Nunavut and make just as much money and work a quarter as hard and that's a fact, and I'm hearing it in other communities also.
*************** 
taimali apirilaqivunga amma qaujimavunga iqqanaijaqtinut katujjiqatigiikkunnuangatuinnariaqaqtuni kisianili ilisaijiqutivut mikinniqsani ilinniavinni ikajurniqsarijariaqarattigu amma pilimmaqsainiqaqtikkanniaqjullugit.
-----
So what I'm asking you to do and I know there might be a union thing but we've got to give our teachers in elementary classrooms a bit more help and some training.

-----
The pupil teacher ratio in the elementary schools is out of control, it's so high, you go into the high school in the region and there's probably a student teacher ratio there of five to one or six to one.
*************** 
amisut angajuqqaarijaujut qaujimavanngilat nutaqqangit namunngaujuksaummangaata ilinniavinni.

A lot of parents don't know when their kids are supposed to go to school.

There on this credit program and I'm sure it's an Alberta curriculum but I just recently talked to a student in my community who is working at the restaurant there and she said that she has twenty two free period a week, and she's only sixteen years old in grade eleven, that's a tragedy.

-----
The reason we can't teach them up here is because the guys working on heavy equipment for twenty, thirty years don't have a simple piece of paper to instruct a local person how to drive a truck or a piece of equipment.

I can fly into any community in Nunavut and see anywhere from ten to twenty to thirty pieces of heavy equipment sitting idle for 10 to 12 months of the year, owned by the private sector.

Why can't we mobilize this stuff, provide snow clearing through a training opportunity so income support, through Arctic College through whatever, build up infrastructure in our communities with the private sector.

-----
Therefore the department needs to work together with other departments and also with other groups such as NSDC and other cultural groups. There should be a department that is working closely with the Executive, to develop government-wide policy initiatives for Inuit Qaujimajatuqangit and how to respectfully incorporate elders' advice into the government.
*************** 
isumagijariaqaqtangit taakkua pilirivviup allagvimiinngaatuinnanngimmata, suuqaimma taakkua atuiniqammaringmata piqqusittinnut inuujugut.
-----
For example, the minister, this was quoted also by the Premier yesterday, the Minister of Department of Sustainable Development recently requested the advice of some elders on polar bear hunting issues. However, when the government seeks advice from elders the Department of Culture, Language, Elders & Youth should begin the policy, design the policy for the participation of elders.

Mr. Chairman, under this department I enjoy talking about this department because I feel it is very interesting. In 1999 a foundation was put in place for Inuit Qaujimajatuqangit, it is the department of Culture, Language, Elders and Youth.

So Mr. Chairman, the Minister of Culture, Language, Elders and Youth should make a statement to the members that when they go home to their communities they should ask for more programs to be in Inuktitut.

If a moratorium was to be put forward on polar bear hunting or on hunting, the elders I think would have to give input on what is being done because they have a great knowledge of polar bears and other wildlife.

Mr. Chairman, following my colleagues' comments I think that the Department of Culture, Language, Elders and Youth has the potential of being a flagship department for Nunavut.

Another thing that I'd like, a comment made by the Premier yesterday, give us suggestions on Inuit Qaujimajatuqangit and we've heard everyone talk very strongly about Inuit Qaujimajatuqangit here in this House from day one.
*************** 
amma isumavunga inuit qaujimajatuqangit ajjigiinngimmat tukinga kikkulimaanut.

And personally I think Inuit Qaujimajatuqangit is something different to everybody.

It means different things to different people.

In different circumstance it's taken differently.
*************** 
uqarunnaqpunga ajurnakasammat nalunaillattaarianga inuit qaujimajatuqangit ajjigiinngittunuurunnarluni.

Really I would say it's almost impossible to just take a strict definition of Inuit Qaujimajatuqangit to be able to apply it in different circumstances.

-----
I think an idea of what they may try to do is you know for each department or division within departments is to take a look at their programs and services and define what Inuit Qaujimajatuqangit means to them and how they plan on incorporating it into their programs and services. They should do it individually like that instead of planning to come up with an overall thing but you know I think it'd be almost impossible to do that.

One of the comments that I've heard from departments is that they can't move forward on Inuit Qaujimajatuqangit because the Department of Culture, Language, Elders and Youth haven't developed an Inuit Qaujimajatuqangit policy.

I know with the limited resources that it has, for the areas in its mandate there are all kinds of other organizations and other government departments at different levels that all have kinds of contribution and funding for these types of programs and services.
***************

They need to look at broadening and trying to tap into third party funding for some of these things if all else fails.

In order to have more some strength and direction maybe it needs to be incorporated into a larger department so that they will get the support to get its needs met and to be able push its mandate forward.

So with that, the department should be able to be aggressive with the other departments and the Cabinet in trying to promote the needs of the elders and the youth, whether it is the Department of Transportation, the Department of Finance, he should be able to tell the other departments what he needs and be aggressive with them.
