Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I know that both comments were pretty long there, and I do understand the Minister does have a very big department and a lot of responsibility to be working with, he and his staff. When I do refer to reports I refer to it from a ground-level worker, which I’ve done for many, many years, and some recommendations when I left a conference or a workshop feeling good knowing that those recommendations were to be addressed or looked at and they never, ever did. Now that I’m in a position to see if we can try to get those addressed, I feel good about it because I’m saying stuff here now that I’ve been saying for the last 12 years sitting on committees at the ground level working with community members, people who have the challenges with the lack of funding trying to help people that they genuinely care about. So when I go to reports and talk about recommendations, I’m coming at it from a true working level from the ground level. I just want to make that comment to the reports.

Based on the stats, can I ask the Minister why we are piloting three projects when I listed all the stats, and the stats show that we need something concrete. We don’t need pilot projects; we need something concrete. Whether he’s going to allocate specific dollars on an ongoing, year-to-year fiscal budget process to address all these stats that I had mentioned earlier, and not keep them as pilot projects, and not focus on just three communities, but try to find a way to make it a territorial project that addresses all residents of the Northwest Territories, and not just three communities in terms of piloting because it is an issue. I read out the stats earlier. People are dying. People are suffering. We can’t just go out and do a pilot project and say we might be able to help you out, we’ll see how these projects do first in these three communities. As we’ve said, all regions are different. Demographics are different. Costs of living are different throughout different regions. That’s just my question.
