Thank you, Madam Chair. Just a couple of questions and, I mean, the Minister and I have had conversations about this before. One of the things that I am finding increasingly frustrating lately is when I go and talk to another Minister about integrated service delivery and the barriers to being able to provide integrated service delivery to Northerners because of our systems that we use within the government. And so I'm wondering if you know, we've got $21.8 million here in expenditures for this office, and I know that they do far more than just purchase software or, rather, manage the...

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, I wish to table a document the Pharmacists' Scope of Practice in Canada from the Canadian Pharmacists Association. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, I move, seconded by the honourable Member for Great Slave, that Committee Report 4819(2), Standing Committee on Social Development Report on Bill 68: An Act to Amend the Child Day Care Act, be deemed read and printed in Hansard in its entirety. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, Canadians en masse are working to access health care. They are waiting for elective surgeries, access to specialists, testing and treatment requirements of cancers, chronic disease, and STIs, and a surge in addiction and mental health support needs. In addition, special treatment programs like audiology, speech pathology, physiotherapy, and occupational therapy appointments put off over the pandemic further bottleneck our already fragile system. The catchup, Mr. Speaker, will take years, and some national experts speculate that the Canadian health care...

Thank you very much, Madam Chair. Madam Chair, you know, something like interoperability framework is not likely something that we're going to see show up in the priorities of the 20th Assembly as a line item so to say, and so I'm wondering what suggestions the Department of Finance would have to the next Assembly coming in to be able to push this item to be able to actually deliver results across the government? Thank you.

Thank you very much, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, I appreciate the motion brought forward by my colleague from Great Slave, and I also appreciate the work that was put into the jurisdictional scan so that we know what the rest of Canada looks like. Canadian jurisdictions are quite obviously split as far as rent increase caps are concerned, but our sister territory to the west, Yukon, does allow a buffer against the impacts of high inflation as measured by CPI but this is to a maximum of 5 percent.

Mr. Speaker, I understand a need for certainty, but this also needs to be balanced with the...

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, I move, seconded by the Member for Great Slave, that Committee Report 4819(2), Standing Committee on Social Development Report on Bill 68: An Act to Amend the Child Day Care Act, be received by the Assembly and referred to the Committee of the Whole. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.

Thank you very much, Madam Chair. Madam Chair, when committee was doing its work, it took a significant amount of time to do the oh sorry, I just ran down the stairs. It took a significant amount of time to actually look at a jurisdictional scan and look at what other what other regions across Canada were doing, particularly other territories. And what we came across was the what is used by the Government of the Yukon, which provides municipal governments with 3.5 percent of its total carbon rebate. And while I appreciate what the Minister is talking about in terms of meeting committee a...

Thank you very much, Madam Chair. Madam Chair, I too wanted to speak to this recommendation. I feel strongly that Northerners are currently in a kind of northern double jeopardy where right now Northerners are being they're seeing increases to their power rates through NTPC for using archaic energy infrastructure and then on the flip side they're going taxed through the carbon tax for using that infrastructure and not using alternatives but these alternatives don't exist to Northerners. And so if we're going to turn around and kind of, so to speak, slap Northerners on the wrist for not using...

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, my written question is for the Minister responsible for Housing NWT.

To calculate the annual funding it provides to local housing organizations, LHOs, for repair and maintenance of its public housing portfolio, Housing NWT uses a formula that multiplies a fixed amount by the number and type of housing units. The LHOs are expected to allocate the funds according to the needs identified in the annual property inspection and condition rating process.

Based on the Housing NWT formula, what amount should each LHO be funded to deliver public housing;

What amount...
