I guess that what the Member’s stated, that we have to look at reducing services, is not really an option. That’s my point. We are going to continue full services to all the residents in the Territories whether or not we are going to get NIHB reimbursed for the NIHB eligible residents or not. I think that’s an important point. We will provide the same service to all of our residents. For those residents in our Territory who are eligible for NIHB reimbursement, we hope to get more than what the federal government is willing to pay us, but we’re not going to reduce the service because the feds won’t pay us.
With respect to what the government and department have done, there have been a flurry...Every opportunity the Premier and Minister of Finance in this government and previous governments have had, we have indicated to the federal government that a 2 percent cap is not desirable or not what we are happy with. The last communication I had as Minister was to write to Minister Strahl that this is not acceptable to us, and we asked that his staff and our government staff get together to see if we could re-open this. The deputy minister of Health and Social Services met with the senior officials in July 2008. I’m not sure; I don’t think we have been able to convince them that a 2 percent cap is not reasonable, but we keep working to continue to convince them.
