Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I would like to follow up on the questions that were raised by my colleague with respect to addictions treatment facilities. Mr. Moses indicated three communities where there were buildings that he thought perhaps the government could look at for addictions treatment.
I would like to ask the Minister of Health and Social Services if the Hay River Hospital, currently scheduled for replacement within a few years, is a building that could be considered. There are a lot of young people in the Northwest Territories that are obviously addicted to drugs and alcohol. I think this building, although it may not be good for a hospital anymore, certainly is good enough for a youth treatment centre. I would like to add Hay River hospital to the list of buildings that may be considered as treatment facilities. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
