Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, I am disappointed that the Minister has chosen to turn this into a Yellowknife versus the regions issue by mentioning she has chosen a Yellowknife resident as chair. Mr. Speaker, the Minister has confirmed that there is a regional balance on this board, by saying it is six and six right now. I think that I have not yet heard a compelling reason for the Minister to break with tradition and ensure that the deputy chair is appointed from within the board. We know that we have people on the board who are interested in health and social services. They are already serving on health and social services boards in their regions. If we need a deputy chair from one of the regions, why not ask the board to consider someone from the regions as deputy chair instead of trying to interfere with appointment practices? Thank you.
