Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, the issue is going to address the co-payment issue, the third-party liability issue specifically as it relates to those people who have to leave their community to obtain medical services. Hay River to Yellowknife, Fort Smith to Edmonton, Yellowknife to Edmonton; we're trying to address what has been clearly identified by myself, the department and the Member's office, that there's a gap in our service and we're trying to address that. It's not just geared specifically to one community. We want to do this in as comprehensive a way as possible, recognizing that having to leave your community is a significant inconvenience that the vast majority of people in communities outside of Yellowknife deal with on a regular basis. Thank you.
