Madam Speaker, a difficult question to answer. Madam Speaker, there are communities across the Northwest Territories who say we want a social worker, and we would like a social worker who is a government social worker. There are all kinds of demands, and I'm not saying that the demands from all the communities are all the same. The different demands from different regions, different communities, differ. We're trying to wrestle with the problem of how to address the issue which is summed up by the Premier when she says community wellness, which includes family violence, which includes violence in general, which includes alcoholism, which includes can I get up in the morning to go to work, which includes do I have a decent place to stay and can I bathe myself and keep myself clean and healthy, can I get a balanced diet, et cetera. All those things relate to community wellness.
So we're trying to balance the whole thing across the Northwest Territories by saying that's the issue that has to be addressed, it's been brought to our attention many times in this House and by our own departments and by people across the territories. So I can't commit that in the next budget we will try as much as possible to fund agencies other than our departments to address those issues. But I will commit to Mr. Ballantyne that we will look at that, Madam Speaker, as a
suggestion. Maybe it will work in some areas and I will pass it on to the appropriate Ministers. Thank you, Madam Speaker.
