Thank you. At this time, there's no -- I mean, the program is set to go live September 1st, Mr. Chair. And next month, they'll be opening up the process for people to start applying through the program. And then, you know, those questions that are out there that what their eligibility, what the questions, how much, you know, it might cost individual members, that's why we're opening up the application process earlier on. But as this time, the program is going to change because if it doesn't, then there's 2,200 people that are still in the Northwest Territories that are not getting any services under this current policy. And so that's why, you know, nobody seems to be thinking about those 2,200 people. If we don't change the policy to include those, right now the policy is disease based. So thank you, Mr. Chair.
