Thank you, Mr. Chairman. On the same line of questioning, as we all know, there is lots of economic opportunities in the diamond industry, oil and gas industry, but there are also alcohol and drug policies that are being implemented by a lot of these companies who are doing work here in the North. One of the big problems we are running into, especially in a lot of our communities, is that a lot of people aren't passing these tests because of the alcohol and drugs that are in our communities within our society. We continue to cut the alcohol and drug programming where it is inefficient. We are down to basically one provider in the North.
We keep talking about FAE/FAS, but we all know where that problem originates from. As a government, we can continue to say it is a problem, but unless we do something about it and realize that in order to make those positive choices we, as a government, also have to ensure that our residents have access to alcohol and drug programs and also have access to ensuring that when a person fails a drug test or an alcohol test, that they are able to go to a particular clinic within their geographical area and be able to deal with the problem and be able to come back into the workforce and meet the goals this government is setting.
We are talking about economic opportunities that are out there, but again I come back to the thing with the resources that are going into alcohol and drug programs. Right now, because of the cuts or the way the dollars have been allocated, we are not seeing results. I think it is important that we do seriously put more resources into preventive programs such as alcohol and drug programs. We cannot be the providers of all the jobs, but if we can make it easier for people to access these jobs by programs that we assist them on to make those changes, it will help us as a government to meet the goals we set. We can set all these goals, but at the end of it all, if people are not being hired or not being able to meet that requirement, then it is all for nothing. Are there any plans in the future of improving the alcohol and drug programs or expanding the facilities that are out there compared to what we have today?
