Mr. Speaker, you do not have to assure me. I think you have to assure the people in those communities that don’t have policing, don’t have nursing — don’t have services — that they’re just as much residents of the Northwest Territories as the other 43,000 people here. We cannot be discriminated against by communities, simply by where you live. Those days are gone. We are not on reserves. We’re not in other foreign Third World countries. This is Canada; this is the Northwest Territories. But that’s the feeling I am getting by the way treatment is being allocated here.
I would like to ask the Premier: with all the brainpower on that side of that House, can you find solutions to these problems, realizing that you may have to amend existing policies, that you may have to change the existing contract arrangements? We can’t have people with certification. We know we’re not going to attract those people to communities. We have to decertify some people so they can provide services. I’d like to ask the Premier: are these problems something that his Cabinet is looking at to find unique ways of solving?
