Mr. Speaker, I haven't seen that particular one. But basically what the federal government was offering us was about $5.2 million a year over the next three years. We need $15 million just to keep up with our forced growth. That's no additions to anything. We're really looking at the amounts to the provinces and what the federal government took away when they cut our base by five percent, we should be getting $25 million a year in order to just stay even and keep a health care system here than ensure our people have the same rights to health benefits as anywhere else in Canada. So what was offered in the first offer that the Premiers felt they were compelled to take but our Premiers didn't take from the three territories, was $5.2 million. It was just so short we were still going to be driving ourselves into debt. I hope Premiers Kakfwi, Fentie and Okalik have success tomorrow, and I encourage them to do everything we can to explain to the federal government what our needs are.
In terms of miscommunications in the media, I'd like to see the one from the Globe and Mail. I haven't noticed it yet, but definitely we would want to correct those misconceptions across the country, because most Canadians don't realize the federal government takes all the royalties and most of the taxes out of the North, and we don't have that money. They sometimes think we're just a bunch of whiners up here; but, I'll tell you, we are being forced to the wall because we don't get that revenue but we have the expenditures. We really need the federal government to recognize that and put some of that money that they're taking out of the North back into the North. That's the only way we can resolve this issue. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
