Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Recognizing it has been a long day, I will just ask one question and quite quickly to the Minister of Health and Social Services with regard to TTC. That being said, it may be a little bit of a lengthy one, but it will be fast. Mr. Speaker, I'm trying to understand why this government preaches decentralization, about being fair and equitable and making sure everyone gets a fair shot, but the bottom line is I think the Minister just mentioned Fort Smith has a facility somewhat of a similar nature, and the bottom line is now if we remove the one out of Yellowknife and put it in Hay River that will be two south of the lake. That means one region now has two, Yellowknife has zero, and the northern region has zero, as well. So, Mr. Speaker, I guess my clear question to the Minister is if you can't provide the vehicle today, I'd be happy to receive it tomorrow. But the bottom line is why don't you consider moving the one from Fort Smith to Hay River if we're worried about backfilling on some facility that needs to be filled or extending the service appropriately, again, south of the lake when we're losing it out of the central region? Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
