Mr. Speaker, my question is directed to the Minister of Health and Social Services and it’s in regard to a letter that she wrote to myself saying that she was going direct the Beaufort-Delta Health and Social Services Authority to transfer $75,000 to the community of Fort McPherson to administer the program. Yet, Mr. Speaker, I noted under the budget item for mental health in the Inuvik region that for Fort McPherson it’s $184,000 for mental health and addictions. I’d like to ask the Minister, have you received a response to that letter? More importantly, why is it the community is being short changed by way of $75,000 versus the $185,000 that is in the budget?
