Thank you, Madam Chair. No, just in regards to community clinics and health centres in my riding, you know, my nursing staff are really run ragged. They're tired. And I'm really hoping that we could, you know, not only compensate them, I guess, but try to get them a little bit of help for the communities of Tuk and Paulatuk, Ulu and Sachs, because they're really been -- they've took the brunt of this over the last two years, and I'm hoping that there's a way that we could try to help them out and, you know, put relief nurses in there to help them out so they could have a little bit of rest too. That's just a comment on that, Madam Chair.
Community mental wellness and addictions recovery plan. You know, we've been -- in my riding over the last year, I had a lot of suicides and mental health is the biggest thing. We've been having mental health issues since COVID, and it's only been getting worse in the communities. So people need help. We need to see people coming in, like, motivational speakers and like stuff I've been working on to try to get our youth engaged and our middle aged and our elders. Like, you know, they've been really put in a tough position because mental health, and it only leads to addiction. The addiction part, you know, of alcohol and the drugs, and we're getting new drugs in the communities. Like, we're getting crack cocaine and cocaine in my riding. And that's going to stop. And I think -- I think what we do have to do is we really have to try to work together in holding -- working with the GNWT, working with our side of the House, and working with the IRC, I guess, to try to provide something like that because I -- you know, again, thank you for this past year for the assistance that you give the mayor of Tuk and the community of Tuktoyaktuk and what we've been through there. But thank you for that. And I just want to work with you, Madam Minister, in regards to doing something like that, again, because it's starting to come -- like, sun's back now. It's not as bad. But still it's still bad in regards to people need help. That's a comment for that.
But so under contributions, the anti-poverty fund, the child and family service fund, the community-based suicide prevention fund, the healthy family program, the mental wellness and addictions recovery fund, in regards to all of that under contributions, how do we hold the Inuvialuit Regional Corporation or the funds that we have available, how do we hold them accountable in regards to showing us our bang for our buck what we're getting; how do we do that? Thank you, Madam Chair.
