Thank you, Mr. Speaker. The vision set out by the Dogrib Community Services Board in, "For the Sake of our Children," a document addressing addictions, states the goals for the Dogrib communities. Some of these goals include:

• • a world where addictions do not rule their lives and trouble their communities;
• • where families are strong and healthy;
• • where people respect and support one another;
• • where elders are listened to; and
• • where parents are aware of the responsibility to guide their children.

Mr. Speaker, I think these are goals that all Northerners support and I think that as a government, we should make sure that funding and infrastructure are available so that goals can be achieved.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I will have questions on this at a later time. Thank you.
