Mr. Speaker, I would like to pose a question to the Minister of Health. Recognizing that medical procedures are used at the Stanton Yellowknife Hospital that subject women to unnecessary pain during a procedure, and recognizing that the Minister of Health is initiating a review, will the Minister consider directing his department to develop a directive which will eliminate unnecessary pain which is posed on women that have abortion procedures taken through the Stanton Yellowknife Hospital?

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I would like to direct my question to the Minister of Social Services. During the last four years as a Member, I have worked with Mr. Bernie Doyle and had a good working relationship with the gentleman, and he has responded and has been very supportive in my constituency. However, I understand that Mr. Doyle is going to be leaving us next week. I want the Minister to confirm whether or not this is true.

Mr. Speaker, to the honourable Member and other Members of the Legislative Assembly, unfortunately Mr. Bernie Doyle has accepted employment in Saskatchewan a very good offer which he felt he could not refuse. As well, because of some other personal circumstances with his family, he has decided to accept the position.
I would like to say as Government Leader that this individual, as the Member has stated, has been a very valuable asset to this government.
--- Applause.
We have been very fortunate to have had his services for the period of time that he did stay with us. On behalf of all of you and myself, it is with extreme regret that we learn that he will be leaving us. We can only hope that he has a very fine future. He has five more years, and he has taken the opportunity to tell me and to tell the former Minister of Social Services of his dedication to the work we are doing as a Legislature and as a government body of the Northwest Territories, and in no way is he leaving us because of any concerns that he has, other than for personal reasons.

Mr. Speaker, I have a question, a point for clarification, for the Government Leader. She did
I indicate the Mr. Doyle was taking an employment offer in Saskatchewan. Is it in Saskatchewan or Alberta?

Sorry, Mr. Speaker; I know he was asked to work in Saskatchewan, but I believe his final choice was in Alberta.

Question O401-12(2): Minister's Awareness Of Abortion Patient's Concerns

I went for a walk and calmed down and I would like to try my question one more time. A question to the Minister of Health. Earlier today the Minister indicated that he had received a letter dated March 25th from a former patient that had endured pain when she had an abortion at the Stanton Yellowknife Hospital. This patient had written to the hospital administration about this in September. That letter had been ignored. Was this the first time the Minister of Health had heard of this patient's concern?

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I am not sure which patient we are referring to, but if it is the patient that was described in the news item on CBC on Tuesday morning, I believe at about 7:30, that was the first indication that I had of the concerns expressed by that patient.

Given that is the first time he heard it, based on the CBC report, does the Minister know of any other letters of complaints hidden away from his view over at the Stanton Hospital?
