Mr. Chairman, we heard about this in the Baffin, Fort Smith, Inuvik and Yellowknife. For interest's sake, one of the quotes that we have from the Resolute Bay public meeting was, "Health and Social Services people should try to get together. If they were to work together, you would know more about these problems." What people were saying is they didn't understand why they would have to bounce back and forth from Health personnel to Social Services' personnel depending on the nature of their problem. That is what people told us they found frustrating. They didn't understand why there was a difference. They saw a need for services to be provided and thought it should be coming from one person.
