Thank you, Mr. Chair. I'm glad to see that this department is taking an active role as identified in the business plan to address our drug trade issues. And I'm also glad that some other responsibilities are with the Minister and the Premier so when they're making trips to Ottawa to solicit for more money, I think we can all -- we can encourage our leader to emphasize the need for additional policing resources. And then when we get to the -- when we get to the fact of homelessness, now we've got the Minister and the Premier responsible for that department also or that initiative. So it works in harmony with our Premier's responsibility looking forward and making trips to Ottawa to initiate discussions on resource supports. And the outcomes for the reason for this trip could be said that -- take the Sahtu for example. I think I brought this up here.

The Sahtu in the last three years have seen 448 medevacs in our area. Now, let's just hypothetically say half of that or 50 percent of that is drug related. I know of some people that end up going to the hospital here because I visit them to see if they need anything. So there's a measurable there for the need for more resources. Now, we're targeting the policing by allowing a portion of those resources to go to First Nation policing. So if it's a good model, let's go to Ottawa and get more resources and say we want to minimize these medevacs down to a hundred. It just seems like, you know, the transfer of problems went from this department over to the health department. Now we got more clients over there, and we only got 44 percent of our jail capacity filled. So that's kind of like one way of looking at that. So it's more of a suggestion that we need to emphasize to Ottawa more resources are needed because this is a huge problem here in this drug world. Thank you.
