Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I have a question I would like to ask with respect to dentists in the Northwest Territories. I was at the Northwest Territories Health Care Association AGM a couple of weeks ago and one of the things that was discussed was the changes in the admission of dentists in the Northwest Territories.

I think the Minister is already aware of this as she has mentioned this in the House. The dentist that was making a presentation told us that unless we do something, modern dental practice in the Northwest Territories may become extinct.

The biggest problem is the loss of a mechanism to hire foreign dentists. The statement he made was, and I understand this is tied to the national admission process, but he said if the Canadian Dental Association does not care about us, why should we care about them? Why is it we cannot do...
