Madam Speaker, I had thought that I had answered that question already.
Madam Speaker, in everything we do now at the community level, the communities are asking us to deal with issues in a holistic approach. I think that a lot of work has been done. Right now, I believe that this government should not be apologetic about how we've gone about attempting to use past resources to bring a certain degree of comfort when people want to talk about the problems they're having, the issues that concern them, where they want to go as individuals and as a community.
Out of this support system that we have provided in the past, we have been able to give enough support to women so they can feel strong enough, so they can put forth their own concerns and aggressively pursue options on how they're going to handle some of the things that are happening in the community. The whole evolution of people being more aggressive in talking about alcoholism, talking about health issues in the community, talking about publicly explaining and bringing to the public awareness and the need to address these problems in a more holistic manner has been very successful. Now, what we have to do is to try to provide the resources to communities so that they can further find solutions to these problems.
As I've stated, and I'll state again, we are trying to look at a wellness strategy in a holistic approach at the community level by redirecting resources, by redirecting intelligence in the communities so they can be more able to do the work that's necessary. There are these movements going around, for example, in the centralization of the suicide specialists who we put in the regions. At one time they used to be here in Yellowknife, now they're in the regions working with health boards trying to find how best to handle those problems at a community level. The more we do that, I think the more we're able to respond to the new active way people are expressing themselves, Madam Speaker.
So, yes, there has been a very conscious attempt to try to revisit how we're providing programs and services and personnel at the community level to address all these issues that are an everyday component of community living. Thank you, Madam Speaker.
