Thank you, Madam Chair. As the Member has pointed out, we are faced with many challenges in the Northwest Territories in our constituencies. While we have many more problems that we do have resources, we do have a significant amount of resources on the table sometimes that are maybe not used as effectively as they could be or could be put to needs that are more pressing than others. That's something we have to look at.

The issue of getting people to make the right personal choices is a very difficult one. As the chair of Social Programs pointed out, the health indicators are still going the wrong way and we are spending a fair bit of money trying to convince people to make those choices but it's not a battle we can win alone. We are all, in our own way, role models. In our communities we have to convince the adults and the young people to make those choices so that the children, most of all, are born healthy.

We also have the capacity with the board structure and authorities set up as we have for regions and leadership in regions to bring, in my opinion, significant pressure to bear on the stores that provide services in our communities. That if there's a decision and pressure to sell healthy foods, then stores are in the business to make money and if there's money to be made because it makes sense as it does with the Atkins diet or whatever, it will happen. As well, we have to accept the challenge. I believe the mayor of Inuvik put the challenge out when we were up in Inuvik that health should match education, where there is no junk food and schools are considered junk food-free zones. I think that's a challenge that we can't help but accept, because it's in keeping with everything that we talk about in terms of the right choices and healthy living and proper diet and those types of things. So there are a lot of practical things we can do, as well, that don't necessarily cost money but require us to step up and engage the people in our communities. Thank you.
