Mahsi cho, Mr. Speaker. In Yellowknife, there were some dust monitoring stations placed in various points in the community. They determined that in the spring when the snow melts and the streets have not been cleaned, there are higher levels of dust in the community and that's a health issue. It was identified by the government as a health issue. In our communities, Mr. Speaker, once the snow is gone, the dust level goes up and doesn't come down until the fall. Why is it a health issue in Yellowknife and not in the communities? How can the Minister say that second-hand smoking is the cause here? Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
