Thank you, Mr. Speaker. The Minister is right; this is about what is fair, this is about what is right, this is about what is just. I also can’t agree that the intent behind what we are doing here is sound. We want to support the low income families, the low income earners who don’t currently have insurance now. The problem is how this Minister and this department happened to be going about the process.
The Minister said we need to have a debate about substance. Yes, please, let’s have a debate about substance. The problem is it would be difficult to have a debate about substance when the information the Minister agreed to get after we passed our motion didn’t come forward. They didn’t go out to talk to the stakeholders. They didn’t consider options. They didn’t research around other options. That is what the Minister said she was going to do. If the Minister had done that, we would have the information to have a debate about substance, a well-rounded, thorough debate about substance. We can’t have it now. Why didn’t the Minister go get the information that she said she was going to get after the debate, after the motion? We need that information to have this debate. We can’t have this debate. All this dancing around she is doing isn’t helping us do the right thing to the people of the Northwest Territories. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
