I’d like to thank the Minister of Finance for that. Also, there are other facilities similar to this throughout the Northwest Territories. Is the government going to be taking over all those facilities under this type of arrangement, and, if so, which other facilities are out there that have a similar type of arrangement under the agreement through CMHC and also the operational fund? At one time, I know that through the seniors facilities in most of our communities was a joint effort between the Housing Corporation, through CMHC, and the Department of Health. Today we’re still trying to get those types of facilities in our communities. But again, because there is no such program, now most facilities are built either as elder homes but not care homes.

I’d like to state that in regard to the situation with the Joe Greenland Centre in Aklavik, which is a level 3/4 facility, that because of the condition of the home, that basically we have to replace it. But under what program are you going to be able to replace that facility? I’d just like to know are there any other facilities in this type of arrangement that basically the government has now taken over.

Also, in regard to the history of the program, which is now grandfathered, which doesn’t exist anymore, what is this government going to do going forward to replace those other facilities that fall under the same type of program?
