Thank you, Mr. Chair. The Minister talked somewhat about the locally produced foods in our communities. Is there any type of strategy or plans to look at these miniature abattoirs that we have in our communities? We have one in Fort Good Hope and Deline we are looking at which were made in Hay River. We want to look at how we produce these local traditional foods to bring them into our GNWT’s institutions. The first two I think are the old folks’ home and the Stanton Hospital.
Is there any type of discussion happening with his colleagues to look at something like these two miniature abattoirs, so that we can package the meats according to regulations we’re under right now? That would make an option for these two institutions for starting off to say, yes, we can have a little business here using these two different community abattoirs to bring in some of the
traditional foods into the hospitals and to the old folks’ homes? Thank you.
