Mahsi, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, we talk about the value of our elders and the respect for our elders. I would like to ask the Minister, for the benefit of the elders and their families, why does it make more sense to put the health and lives of frail elders at risk by forcing them to travel to Yellowknife, away from their families and their communities in minus 45 degree temperatures, than to install a simple backup generator in the seniors' home facility? Mahsi, Mr. Speaker.
