Mr. Speaker, the Member is right. We could probably debate this for an extended period of time, but at the end of the day we do respect our seniors. We are putting programs and services in place in support of seniors. We have a healthy relationship with the NWT Seniors Society. In fact, one of the members of the NWT Seniors Society said just because I happen to be 65 doesn't mean I'm infirm or unable to do these things.
When an individual is challenged, they have some limitations. Of course, Mr. Speaker, we are going to provide non-medical escorts. With respect to the situation that the Member is describing where an individual comes to a community is left for hours or their appointment is hours away from when they land or when they take off. If you're in Yellowknife or Inuvik or I think it's Hay River, we actually have facilities where an individual can go and spend some time, whether it's the hospital or Vital Abel House or one of our other facilities. It's helpful if the Member, the individual who's travelling gives us some head's up that they need some place to go because we can help coordinate that.
The other communities we haven’t been able to resolve those issues at this point. We are coming out with a medical travel book or a passport, if you will, a handout that will go to residents as they're going to be travelling on medical travel that outline all the different numbers by communities, where they can go, where there might be places where they can spend some time so that they have options available to them, but we haven't finalized all those details. We're continuing to work on it.
