Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, we are looking at that issue and we are trying to beef up and improve our continuing care programs, home support, home care and supportive living to help seniors stay in their homes as long as possible. I know as well the Minister of Housing has a very aggressive initiative underway with seniors' housing, that there is in fact some housing being built in Inuvik, Hay River and Smith. We, as well, are looking at ways to upgrade and improve the facilities that we currently run in our multi-bed residences that deal with more long-term care needs. Thank you.
