Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, we have established those facilities in other communities in the Northwest Territories. With this program, we have the Minister of Health and Social Services along with the Minister of the Housing Corporation who both together have to move on these initiatives.
Mr. Speaker, the Minister mentioned a couple areas where he is looking at transferring different programs such as the Home Care Program and Community Wellness Program. We have a lot of programs being delivered in the community of Fort McPherson right now and I believe that we do have the capacity in the community to deliver these programs for our seniors.
I would like to ask the Minister, have you consulted with the Minister of the Housing Corporation to look at the possibility of establishing a new seniors' facility in Fort McPherson with the opportunity to consider taking on this responsibility down the road?
