Thank you, Mr. Chair. Mr. Chair, I think I have asked a lot of questions in the last couple of days in regards to this area and I think it’s important that by way of a motion we can be able to try to stem some of these problems we are seeing in our smaller communities, especially with regard to the area of programs and service delivery in communities, because what we are finding is that there are different types of sizes of communities. You meet challenges in a lot of the communities. I think it is important that we cannot refuse services to communities especially when we realize that by providing good health care and social services in our communities it does provide for a healthier community.

I think, Mr. Chairman, it is important that we do have to get to the bottom of this problem, especially when we are realizing that there are challenges in regard to finding nurses for a lot of our smaller communities, deal with mental health and addiction issues and, more importantly, the service by way of doctors’ care and visits and also the dental care in our communities. I think it is important that we do come forward with some sort of a strategy in regard to looking at these programs and services and realizing that we have to have something that is flexible to meet the unique challenges we have in a lot of our smaller communities.

With that, I look forward to the support from the other colleagues in the House to move this motion forward so we can move on. Thank you.
