Mr. Speaker, with the sunsetting of funding with the Department of Health with millions of dollars that are not going to be renewed with the federal government, the federal government is also increasing our funding for social housing in the Northwest Territories. There are other programs that the federal government is going to be cutting back in the Northwest Territories. I want to ask the Premier in terms of raising the level of this issue, the urgency of this issue in terms of our revenue leaving the Northwest Territories every second of this day here. How do we get the attention of the federal government with all the people of the Northwest Territories saying that this is a serious issue and it is not acceptable in this day and age? How can the Premier get our leaders to rally behind him to take this strong message to Ottawa?
