Mr. Speaker, I will try once again without being interrupted to pose my question to the Minister of Health. Mr. Speaker, the issue at hand is the fact that a medical procedure used in one of our hospitals to deliver a service to the patients and people of the NWT is basically a procedure that allows for women to endure pain. I am concerned with that particular issue, that unnecessary pain is having to be endured. I would like to ask the Minister, recognizing that this pain is being endured by women, with no anaesthetic being given to alleviate the pain, why does he feel he has to review the issue of how abortions are done at the Stanton Yellowknife Hospital?
