Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, as more and more northern nurses enrol in nursing education here through Aurora College and also in southern institutions, there may very well come a time in the near future where, for practicums and mentorships and certain types of training, it may be that we would reach a capacity, given the small size of our institutions.
Certainly where we do have a contract with the Capital Health Authority, and whereby northern patients are quite often referred to southern institutions, it may well be possible to approach them with the idea of absorbing and working with graduates who would ultimately return to the North.
One of the risks to us in that is that nurses may receive practical training at southern hospitals and find that they really like it there, which may lead to a placement in the future. Certainly it is an interesting concept and it can be explored. Thank you.
