Thank you very much, Madam Chair. On page 344, there is ground ambulance and highway rescue. The budgeting numbers are the same every year, and the description on that is: "To enhance capacity in the areas of ground ambulance and highway rescue." In different conversations through different committees that we've been able to have with different community groups, ground rescue is something that has come up frequently as a concern for communities, especially ones based on busy highway systems. We've got Behchoko that's on a busy highway system; we've got Hay River, as well, that ends up supplying people for different highway rescues. We often hear, also, of different things that happen in the Beaufort-Delta and sometimes people having to be loaded into the back of a pickup truck in order to get to much-needed medical services. I'm wondering, given that this number hasn't changed, is it going to be able to expand or enhance the ground ambulance and highway rescue capabilities of our remote northern communities? Thank you.
