Obviously, I have a lot of problems with the Minister’s comments. We’re not talking about facilities elsewhere; we’re talking about Stanton Territorial Hospital, our premier health service centre for those that are in desperate need of care. They come here from across the Territories.
I’d say there is certainly no clear commitment that the Minister continually refers to with budgets like this for the work that’s required. We’re talking more than the Tuk highway, which is probably a 300 or 400 million dollar project or more. We know it’s well over $300 million and we’re talking about $2 million budgets and $5 million budgets. We’re continuing to procrastinate here.
So I ask the Minister where is the clear commitment that he’s referring to here as we take on new projects and dedicate whether we throw $60 million on to a project this year and not a territorial project.
