Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Earlier in my statement, I mentioned the lack of medical services to the smaller communities and I have a good example of that. I have a child in Snare Lakes that needs to see an eye specialist more often than regular people with good sight. He has retinitis pigmentosis disease. This is a disease that works on the eyes and eventually, people lose their vision. We get a specialist once a year into the smaller communities, but it is not enough to help these children and adults that are out there.
I would like to ask the Minister if he can tell me if he can increase that or can the department bring these people into Yellowknife as it seems they cannot get out of there for a referral? Thank you.
