Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, it is important to clarify, first of all, to the honourable Member that the media does not have a copy of the Med-Emerg report. As I indicated, we have passed on advanced copies to the chairs and the CEOs of the health care association of boards throughout the territories. They have had some discussions with it.
The media report that the honourable Member refers to is the fact that myself and the Deputy Minister were up in Iqaluit speaking to the Baffin Regional Health and Social Services Board on some of the contents of the report and the discussion on the framework for some of the consultations. The media were present and that may be where some of the comments were coming from. As well, the Deputy Minister did have an interview with a member of the media while we were in Iqaluit. I just wanted to clarify that is the case in respect to the media reporting of this issue.
In respect to the issue of outside financing sources. Yes, I have said right from the start. In following questions from the honourable Member from Inuvik and from Iqaluit that we have to look at some creative financing options to try to bring these projects on line because of the fact that this government has some financial restrictions and constraints in the budgets that we have brought forward. We have to look at all avenues that are out there to hopefully be successful in bringing these initiatives on line, Mr. Speaker. Thank you.
