Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, I do not believe that any more formal studies into the issue are required. I think we already have much of the information we need to start addressing this problem. It is a matter of looking at what has worked in the past. I think I would be correct in saying that many Northerners have been treated for addictions and have had a relapse.
We need to look at the effectiveness of the programs. Are we spending money on treatment, then when the resident returns to the communities, and there is no community support or network there for them, they fall back into the same pattern. We need to look at all of those issues and spend our money in the most effective way possible to see results. Thank you.
