Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, I appreciate the comments of the Minister, that indeed, the workshop occurring in Iqaluit now is a good step. Mr. Speaker, sometimes, when we are talking about suicides we do not have any type of statistic to show where intervention has actually worked and we have stopped someone from committing suicide. We only see when it actually occurs. Since 1990 after the major conference that developed a strategy and the focus that we have taken over the last eight years, is the Minister or is there any plan underway to facilitate another major conference like the one in 1990 to review where we have been and see what type of focus we can take for 1998 and beyond? Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
