Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I am not sure what the Minister was referring to, but I don't think he has really answered my question as to how the Government of the Northwest Territories is planning on abandoning these clients and leaving them at the disposal of the city of Edmonton and the services that they provide. How can the Minister tell these people that the government who supported them for the last 10 years in numerous institutions is now suddenly pulling the rug out from underneath an agency which has provided them with a very improved quality of life resulting in reduced risk behaviours? I am quoting Mr. Paul Kohl, which is the Office of the Public Guardian. How can the government sit back and say they are just going to have to go to the city of Edmonton and take advantage of the services available to them and we will just keep track of what they are doing? Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
