Thank you, Mr. Speaker, and thank you to the Minister for that. In my brief reviewing of this issue, I'm curious about some other tools. Will the Minister also consider looking at community safety orders or amendments to the Residential Tenancies Act that will provide fair and thorough processes that would lead to the eviction of suspected drug dealers. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.

Yeah, thank you for that, Mr. Speaker, and thank you to the Minister. Sounds like there's some interjurisdictional scan -- no pun intended -- being done there. Can the Minister be specific about what preliminary work his legal staff is conducting with regards to SCAN legislation so that it will, in effect, be a scalpel instead of an unconstitutional hammer? Thank you, Mr. Speaker.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, a week ago I was pleased to host the Premier in his role as the Minister of Justice and the Minister of housing on a tour of my constituency, specifically paying a visit to the encampment and two rental accommodations where single mothers spoke to their concerns around the drug trade and guns in their buildings. I am grateful that the Ministers took the time to see the reality of trying to provide a safe home for families to grow and thrive is very difficult in our capital. Both of these mothers are trying their best to protect their children and seek...

Thank you. And what year are we on of that four-year agreement, please?

Thank you, Mr. Chair. I'll try to be brief, and this is more just of an understanding question. I've noted throughout this supplementary estimate that several departments have funding under the national action plan to end gender-based violence. Here is Justice, it's $57,000. Could the Minister please explain why it's broken up over Justice, HSS, and EIA briefly. Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. Can the Minister please speak to how much of the costs for rehabilitation work on Highway No. 3 are offset by the Government of Canada? Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. And is the delay attributable to anything that we can speak about? Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, I wish to table a document entitled, A Ladder of Citizen Participation by Sherry R. Arnstein. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. So I'm hearing that the Minister of Justice is wanting to tailor it to the territories, so I'm just going to build a little on that.

We've heard many times in this House from smaller community MLAs that folks in smaller communities have resorted to vigilantism to scare out dealers. So what kinds of considerations is the Minister instructing his staff to make this legislation do to make sure that it works well for both the needs of the capital and the needs of our smaller communities? Thank you, Mr. Speaker.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. That's very well and good; I'm a little bit disappointed it's only voluntary for situations such as this. So can the Minister commit to further education for staff on the presentation and identification of genders specifically in administrative health services? Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
