I appreciate that, because I’ve heard it a couple times from local residents as well as residents from the small communities. Not just Inuvik but right across the Northwest Territories. I think we have to make sure we have an adequate supply should this happen.
Just moving forward, I was speaking with a physician on the plane ride coming back to Yellowknife and he was talking about this TED Talks and where this physician was talking about the use of remote technology. When we talk about ambulatory care services, a lot of it is very time sensitive, and actually trying to get into communities, whether it’s a blizzard or some of our remote communities maybe up in the coastal regions and with the work on the Mackenzie Valley Fibre Optic Link, has any work been done in terms of a study to look at how we can use the Mackenzie Valley Fibre Optic Link in terms of remote technology? In the TED Talks they talked about using robotics in medicine, so being able to perform not surgeries but performing medical procedures, or giving advice to some of our communities that might not have any nurses but have health care workers that might be able to do the services that are time sensitive and whether a medevac can get in there or not. Is there a study being done to see
what kind of equipment we might need in some of these small, remote communities, especially now that this Fibre Optic Link will be up and running in 2016? If we get a planning study now, then it’s something that we can work on. It would cut down on travel costs, cut down on medevacs and also possibly save lives. Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
