Mahsi, Madam Speaker. Madam Speaker, on September 26th, the Minister of Health for the Government of Canada wrote a press released titled, "National Strategy to Deal with Urgent Health Priorities of First Nations and Inuit." It is called, "Building Healthy Communities: A New Health Care Strategy For First Nations and Inuit." My question to the Minister of Health is, is the GNWT a partner in this new strategy?

Madam Speaker, I would be prepared to provide that information in a little more detail to the Member. I don't have it right now. I think the discussions and involvement from health board to health board varies. I will provide that information to the Member.

In the press release, which I will be tabling later, it says it is a five-year, $243 million strategy. I am just curious how and when groups in the Northwest Territories can access some of this money?
