Thank you, Mr. Speaker. A number of weeks ago I wrote a letter to the Minister of Health and Social Services to express to her my concern about a constituent of mine. This constituent had a very severe stroke about 10 months ago. Since that time, he has been cared for at Stanton Territorial Hospital and is currently in the ICU department. I had an opportunity to visit with my constituent last night. His partner is advocating for him. They would like to see him transferred to a facility that could assist him in being the recipient of physical rehabilitation as a result of this stroke. It’s my understanding that there is nothing more that can be done for him at the Stanton hospital. We do not have a neurosurgeon on staff at Stanton. I would like to ask the Minister if there is any encouraging news that I could share with my constituents with respect to this gentleman’s care.
