Statements in Debates
Thank you, Mr. Speaker. As I indicated in my Member’s statement, a vital service in Hay River, which is the handi-van, that deals with seniors and people with disabilities to get around the community to attend medical appointments and stuff like that, has not been receiving any government funding and has seen cost increases and has pressures there. So my questions are for the Minister of Health today.
Is there any funding available to assist these people, seniors with disabilities, to get to their medical appointments and go throughout the community of Hay River?
Thank you, Mr. Hawkins. Minister Miltenberger.
