Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I think the Minister raised a key component of this work, which is trauma-informed care and trauma-informed therapy. When we are evaluating some of these alcoholism and addictions issues, they are symptomatic to the abuses of colonization and the residential school in particular. Is the department or is the Minister's staff working on a trauma-informed care model to address addictions in the Northwest Territories, whether or not that is working with Indigenous partners or the southern facility-based care we have? Is trauma-informed care becoming the lens that we are focusing this effort to bring wellness and safety to our people? Thank you.
