Again, in my Member’s statement I talked about the lack of services in a lot of our communities. I think the importance that we talk about here, we talk about respite care, we talk about home care, we talk about supplementary health, but a lot of the times people in a lot of our communities don’t have those fundamental services. Like the communities I represent, a large portion of the population are elderly. We want to keep our elders in our home communities. We want to keep our elders close to their families, but, again, they need that important delivery and service and care, regardless if it’s respite care or home care. So I’d just like to ask the Minister, I know that there’s a lot of wants out there, but what are we doing to ensure that those services are spread fairly throughout the Northwest Territories and everyone has those types of programs and services in the communities that we serve, regardless of the size of the community.
