Mahsi cho, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, my question is for the Minister of the Department of Municipal and Community Affairs, following my Member's statement, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, we know that in the Northwest Territories that the problem with child obesity and obesity in general is a major problem. We know that obesity leads to health issues. One of the health issues predominately suffered by aboriginal people is diabetes. That is a big problem in southern Canada and it is becoming a big problem in the Northwest Territories. I would like to ask the Minister responsible for sport and recreation, what his department is doing to address this very major problem that is starting to arise in communities. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
