Good morning, everyone. Welcome.
Of course, we are here today to continue our study on resource development in northern Canada.
We have here with us today three witnesses. From the City of Dawson, we have Peter Jenkins, mayor; from the Hamlet of Rankin Inlet, we have Pujjuut Kusugak, mayor; and from the Hamlet of Baker Lake, we have Peter Tapatai, councillor. Welcome to you all.
Your trips here make ours seem relatively easy, those of us who have eight-and-a-half hour trips. I know it's a long journey, and I really do appreciate your taking that journey and being here with us today.
We're looking forward to your presentations. We hope you have timed those at about 10 minutes. Then we'll go to questions and comments, because a lot of the information we get is from questions and comments.
We'll start in the order on the agenda with Mr. Jenkins, mayor of the City of Dawson.
Go ahead with your presentation, please, sir.
