Thank you, Mr. Speaker Today I would like to talk about our small and remote communities and their need to have access to professional health and wellness programming and staff.
During my most recent visit to Wrigley, they commended the fact that the return of nursing to their community will become a reality. They did also request to me that having access to a mental health worker and programming is also just as important to their community. They are pleased with the efforts of the Deh Cho Health and Social Services, yet desire to see their community be provided with the resources to work towards the establishment of their own programming and staffing in their own community.
I do recommend that we take this request seriously and work to ensure that available mental health programming and staff fulfill the needs of all our communities no matter how small.
Thank you, Mr. Menicoche. The honourable Member for Weledeh, Mr. Bromley.
