Thank you, Madam Chairperson. My question is regarding the long-term care facility in Inuvik where they have a lot of the aged people and handicapped people in one wing of the hospital, which can get very tense, especially when you have the elderly and disabled persons in the same facility. It is very stressful on the elderly who are trying to get their rest where noise seems to be a problem for them. I would like to ask the Minister as to what has been done to try to find an alternative place or some sort of initiative to try to keep the elderly in one unit and the handicapped in another. Have you considered looking at that as policy or is it for the sake of convenience that they put everybody into one wing?
