Mahsi, Mr. Speaker. My question today is for the Minister of Health and Social Services. In the Northwest Territories, we all know we have a problem with health problems, specifically cancer, and we attribute that to the lifestyles we lead, particularly smoking.

I am just wondering if the department has ever done a study on deaths by lung disease. We have been living in the communities for a number of years, more than 75 years. In recent years, traffic in the communities has risen dramatically. The dust associated with that traffic has risen dramatically. I am just wondering if the department has ever done a study to see if there is any negative health effect resulting from the dust. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
