Thank you, Mr. Speaker. What I’m hearing from the Minister is if we do not go with the proposed plan, somewhere down the line we’re going to have a sustainability issue in regard to health care and that we have to find somewhere $8.5 million. That definitely is very concerning to me and my people in the region in looking at other issues regarding health. Also, that we’re going to be under siege. We really have a problem here, Mr. Speaker, in terms of this issue here.
Is this the best that the Cabinet can put before us? If we do keep the existing program, I believe that
we’re going to be dealing with this issue in the next year or so. Is this what the Cabinet can put before us with our limited budget and our needs in my region and other small communities, in terms of health care services and services that we desperately need, as I spoke of earlier? That’s the question that I want to ask the Minister.
