Thank you, Madam Chair. I know this is an area that is not unique to the North. This is an issue that is front and centre across the country as we face an aging population. There is a lot of work being done in this area. I would like to know from the Minister whether any discussions he's having with federal counterparts have any possibilities of accessing some funds to provide resources and assistance to those families who are choosing to take care of their elderly at home. I seem to recall some talk there from various parties in the last election about looking into something like this. Is there anything on the horizon that we could tap into from the federal government that could make it easier for this Minister to look into this program to see how it could become a reality sooner than later? Thank you, Madam Chair.
