Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, I don't have a specific caseload that all of our workers have in the communities across the Northwest Territories at this point, but, from the department's perspective, we have invested quite a substantial amount of money over the last few years in trying to strengthen this area of mental health and addictions. For example, in 2007, as I had stated yesterday in a number of questions, 77 positions were added and funding of about $6.6 million through health and social services authorities to strengthen this area. That went towards community wellness workers as well as 24 mental health and addictions counsellors and eight clinical supervisors. Thank you.
