Thank you.

With regard to the Metis and non-native residents, with specified diseases who receive coverage, is it possible to broaden that a bit? I think we could put the Metis people in a different category so that they receive more benefits than non-native people? There must be a way of addressing their specific needs so that, at least, they have the same level of service as, maybe, status people.

It has been worked on for about five years now, if I recall, Mr. Chairman, and there have been motions on it. Mr. Koe brought it up. What are we doing to expand and to help the Metis population of the north?
