Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, I wasn't involved in the Member's campaign where he got all this grassroots feedback, but I can tell him very clearly in this House that we made a major commitment to communities, and we've worked with communities and we've responded to what the communities indicated to us was a pressing need. The State of Emergency outlined some very fundamental problems with the addictions and mental health services in the Northwest Territories. We took major steps to address those and to build on community strengths the same way we're putting in nurses and nurse practitioners. We want to put in public health units and rehab teams out into the communities and into the regions because that's where the issues are, that's where the problems are, and that's where the solutions are. Thank you.
