I also -- thank you, Madam Chair. I'd like to also just talk about aftercare and a detox centre. You know, we have -- I think it's just over a million in aftercare. And it's going to recovery and support community-based addictions recovery. But we really do not have a proper detox centre and aftercare facility in the Northwest Territories. And with all the things that are happening in this past year and during the COVID and afterwards, I think that, you know, the Northwest Territories really requires an aftercare and detox centre. And I just want to see how -- how the Minister feels about this whole situation because it's -- it's not getting any better. It's getting worse. We've had so many suicides and attempted suicides in the South Slave especially, and I'm sure up north too because I -- you know, my area is in South Slave. That's why I'm talking about it. And I'd just like to see something more concrete done with that because it's a major, major problem within our communities, and it's a major problem for all of us here in this House. Thank you, Madam Chair.
