Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, over the past 15 months on numerous occasions I have raised in this House, and so has Mr. Roland, the need for our hospitals in those two communities. Mr. Chairman, the original 1988 agreement with the federal government was on the condition when the Health Canada transferred the responsibility for Health and Welfare to the territorial government that these hospitals would be replaced. Today in 1997, we find ourselves in the fiscal situation where we cannot build these hospitals. We have to access other alternatives sources. Mr. Chairman, I would like to say that the Health Minister, Mr. Ng and Finance Minister, Mr. Todd, have been putting in a lot of long hours and have been co-operative with Mr. Roland and myself, to try to reach some kind of compromise. I have also met with the chair of the Baffin Regional Health Board and the CEO for the Baffin Regional Health Board in Iqaluit, with the Finance Minister to try to push this project. As the capital predictions show, it is a $47,870,000 project that will have a major benefit to the people of the Northwest Territories, to the region and to the community. I would urge all Members to support this opportune motion in the spirit that it was presented. Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
