Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Since the government hasn't taken any stand, Mr. Speaker, recognizing that the Bourque commission report, Working Towards a Common Future, included a recommendation that would see a right to refuse life-prolonging medical treatment for individuals and their minor children and recognizing that the Rodriguez case and the Latimer trial have been brought to the attention of people and the governments across Canada, has the Minister of Health and Social Services given any consideration to engage in a dialogue with regard to this topic with the medical community advocacy groups and agencies that help the disabled people of the NWT? Thank you.
