The people of Hall Beach are not untouched by the many economic and social problems that exist in our northern communities. They are problems that require immediate attention, but what makes this community stand out is its appalling lack of services which would otherwise enable the people to take advantage of opportunities, obtain information and cope with their problems. I must say, Madam Speaker, I cannot blame this community for feeling neglected by the Government of the Northwest Territories.
At the moment, they do not have a social worker, a renewable resource officer, an economic development officer, an outreach worker or an adult educator.
