Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, my question today is for the Minister of Health and Social Services and it's further to my Member's statement. Mr. Speaker, I believe it is very clear that the YACCS, which stands for Yellowknife Association of Concerned Citizens for Seniors, have done all the work. They have the vision in place, they have plans in place, they have a plan for the Aven Manor, they have a plan for Aven seniors' independent courts and their plan is like a domino or puzzle. One has to work in order for the rest of the pieces to fit, and they have a long-term plan to have seniors' housing in the form of condominiums in the land that they have available in the same area of the manor and the courts. But their plan includes a dementia facility so that the people who need to go in there can do that, and so they can move on to the condominium idea. Mr. Speaker, I know that the Minister is well aware of this proposal, and last we heard from him he had provided a deposit or down payment or initial money for them to look into this. Now they have submitted a full proposal and I would like to know where the Minister stands on that. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
