Mr. Chairman, if I could just briefly speak to the motion. We are asking support for the department to pursue the two key priorities of an FAS/FAE strategy team that is working here in Yellowknife. Those priorities are to compile a comprehensive treatment program for pregnant women with substance dependency issues. The second priority is to develop and deliver a standardized, modular training program on FAS/FAE with materials in plain language to assist all the other communities in the north to deal with this very important issue that affects so many people and so many children. Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
