Thank you, Mr. Speaker. We always talk about aging in place, here. Would the Minister work with the Minister of Health to cost-share on a gazebo for elders to enjoy the summer, to visit with one another, and also to visit with community members? As I mentioned, it's great scenery there, at the location that they have, but it's a shame that our elders do have to sit outside to enjoy fresh air facing away from the mountains. You know, we should be making use of the scenery there. It's a good place to enjoy life. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.

I know this has been an ongoing issue since the opening. You know, this could have been avoided if the department didn't try to cut costs during construction. I'd like to ask the Minister: is there any further work needed on the Joe Greenland Centre, or will this solve the heating problems?

Debates of , 18th Assembly, 3rd Session (day 62)

Thank you, Mr. Chair. Just under the Gwich'in land claim implementation, I see it's only $2,000, compared to other organizations at $66,000. There's not a lot of work you can do with $2,000 for a land claim organization. I know implementation has always been an issue, so are there plans to increase that? I believe in the past, depending on which department we were on, sometimes they'd get $25,000, or something. There's not a lot that can be done with $2,000. Thank you, Mr. Chair.
