Statements in the House

Item 19: Consideration In Committee Of The Whole Of Bills And Other Matters November 9th, 1998

My final question, Mr. Chairman. Mr. Todd, what amount or portion of the dollars that we are going to expend here for these improvements, how are they related to the unit that will not be in use after the next year or two?

Item 19: Consideration In Committee Of The Whole Of Bills And Other Matters November 9th, 1998

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Mr. Chairman, can we gather from that that the facilities these new improvements are going into will be around for the next ten or 15 years?

Item 19: Consideration In Committee Of The Whole Of Bills And Other Matters November 9th, 1998

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Mr. Todd, what is the expected life of this work, given the fact that there will be new facilities constructed or proposed at least, for the next year or so with reference to college facilities and so on?

Item 19: Consideration In Committee Of The Whole Of Bills And Other Matters November 9th, 1998

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. In reference to the $1.7 million contract to replace the Inuvik high temperature water system in the school and college buildings, can the Minister provide some additional detail on this issue?

Item 19: Consideration In Committee Of The Whole Of Bills And Other Matters November 9th, 1998

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Mr. Chairman, is the Minister saying that right now we know that this piece of equipment will be used, of course, for people in the west, and the Kitikmeot, but we are uncertain as to whether Baffin or Keewatin residents will be flown to Yellowknife to use this piece of equipment?

Item 19: Consideration In Committee Of The Whole Of Bills And Other Matters November 9th, 1998

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Mr. Chairman, I also agree that this is a much-needed piece of equipment for the north. I am just curious as to, whether it is still the intention of both parties, west and east, to have Nunavut residents post-division be flown to Yellowknife for this type of analysis?

Item 19: Consideration In Committee Of The Whole Of Bills And Other Matters November 9th, 1998

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Mr. Chairman, in reference to the $500,000 for the Stanton Health Board CAT Scanner, can the Minister provide some more detail on this item?

Item 19: Consideration In Committee Of The Whole Of Bills And Other Matters November 9th, 1998

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Mr. Chairman, is the Minister saying that we are not quite sure where these dollars are going right now? By the same token, they are classified as urgent, minor capital.

Item 19: Consideration In Committee Of The Whole Of Bills And Other Matters November 8th, 1998

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Mr. Chairman, in reference to the eastern and western health boards, urgent minor capital, $750,000, I wonder if the Minister could provide some more detail as to where this money has been allocated to. For what?

Item 19: Consideration In Committee Of The Whole Of Bills And Other Matters November 8th, 1998

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Mr. Chairman, not to belabour the point, Mr. Todd, but I am just curious as to when these monies became available that we are now going to put into play, and my concern would be that it may be too little, too late, given the fact that, especially for the Nunavut MLAs, we are on the last days of our term. I am concerned as to the full impact that the eastern nursing stations, the full benefit that they will get.
