I have a question for the Minister of Health. I did not think I used all my supplementaries earlier but I guess I did, with respect to Dr. Andre Lalonde of the Society of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists. It is my understanding that initially Dr. Lalonde stated that the Society of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists has stated in its agreement in principle the procedures used at the Stanton Yellowknife Hospital, but the statement was later changed at the insistence of Dr. Pierre Lessard, to state that the procedures meet the standards of care promoted by the Society of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists. Can the Minister comment on why Stanton Yellowknife Hospital personnel should be editing Dr. Lalonde's assessment of whether hospital procedures meet the Society of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists standards?
