Statements in Debates
Thank you, Mr. Chair. I will refer that to Mr. Kalgutkar. Thank you.
Thank you, Mr. Chair. There is no definite date yet. It is kind of a long-term project. I will keep Members up to date as to the work that we do. If we do have any definite timelines, I will definitely share them with the Members. Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Thank you, Mr. Chair. Mr. Chair, the community can apply to get an ambulance out of their CPI funding that we provide to them, as well as trying to access some of this funding. Again, the challenge is, as I mentioned before, we had a community who bought an ambulance and realized that they didn’t have the training and there was a liability issue so they actually sold the ambulance to one of the larger communities.

Yes. Thank you, Mr. Chair. Mr. Chair, Tsiigehtchic was actually one of the communities where we did provide some first responder training. The thing with people in the Northwest Territories is somebody is going to respond all the time and they’re not going to worry about where the money is coming from, they will just respond.
