I believe that I’ve been fairly consistent, in my time as a Minister and before I was a Minister, that prevention is important. My colleague, the Minister of Health and Social Services, spoke in favour of prevention significantly and I have as well. To that end, we are working on an Anti-Poverty Strategy that’s going to help us deal with the root causes of crime. These are all prevention. When it comes to the courts, I acknowledge full well that the courts are an important tool. Whether it’s an addictions court, a mental health court or whether it’s a wellness court. What I’m telling you right now is we don’t know which model is the most appropriate for the

Northwest Territories. We’re doing that analysis. We’ll get that analysis done. Once we pull that information together, we’ll share it with our colleagues on both sides of the House so that everybody can see it and we can make an informed decision on which model works best for the people of the Northwest Territories.

I understand it’s taking long, but there are a lot of things happening in this government that we have to get done. This is just one of them. We will get it done. We will have it in place for the people of the Northwest Territories.
