CBC News: Northern territories 'eventually' to be given provincial status

If I was a gambling man, I would guess that this isn't going to happen during Martin's tenure. Has anyone heard any rumblings about this before?

I've not heard of this before, perhaps his answer for the 'on the spot' question. Not to sound brainless or anything but I've always wondered about Territories; like why are they Territories instead of provinces and what is the difference?

I took an informal poll among the sardines at work today and the consensus was pretty much as Stigmataman says. Nobody was able to talk about the actual pre-confederation arguements or anything like that, though.
