Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, we were aware that the nursing profession was under stress in respect to recruitment efforts of other jurisdictions, in respect to recruitment from Health and Welfare Canada who still provide the health care delivery for aboriginal peoples on reserves and who offered quite lucrative housing and vacation travel packages for their employees, Mr. Speaker. That was an ongoing concern and an ongoing impediment to some of the recruitment of nurses in the Northwest Territories, Mr. Speaker. Thank you.
