Mahsi, Mr. Speaker. I am happy to support this motion in hopes that this does not happen again in our communities. Family relationships are very important in our communities. We treasure our children. We want them to be protected and cared for. Our elders watch our children, and, in most cases, they care for the community as a whole. Now we have three people who are gone from the community. It is a sad time for these families, and all the community feels the effects of the loss.
Mr. Speaker, I cannot stand here and say this did not happen. I wish we could have these three people at home with their families. But this did happen, and they are gone.
As a Member of this Assembly, it is my responsibility to assist where I can to change something that will serve the people we represent in a helpful way. The healthcare system needs to look at these deaths and address the issue of medevacs at the community level. The community health workers who work at the health cabins in these small communities need higher level training so they're able to help people they work for. They must be trained to know how to save a life by administering lifesaving meds or intravenous fluids. We need the system to work for our constituency we serve. Mr. Speaker, mahsi.
