Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I have a further question to the Minister of Health in respect to the same issue. The hospital press release states that general anesthesia is not part of the standard of care for therapeutic abortions as established by the Society of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists of Canada. Can the Minister very clearly tell the House whether or not patients undergoing abortions at Stanton Yellowknife Hospital can receive anesthesia if they request it, prior to the medical procedure?
