That's all. Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. Can the Minister speak to specifically engagement on this particular project and whether the city has raised any questions or concerns about this project? Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. So I want to echo many of the points raised by my colleague from Frame Lake. I also am concerned with our fiscal situation and concerned with us continuing to build new infrastructure that is neither meeting basic needs, nor delivering us back enough revenue to cover the costs of building and maintaining and operating it. And in particular, when I was looking at the proposal for the new Cameron River Crossing Territorial Park, first I want to say I do appreciate that we have staff that are trying to think creatively and think outside the box of new ideas and ways that we...

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, I give notice that on Friday, November 1st, 2024, I will move the following motion:

I move, seconded by the honourable Member for Hay River North, that notwithstanding Rule 2.1, when this House adjourns on Friday, November 1st, 2024, it shall be adjourned until Wednesday, February 5th, 2025;

And further, that any time prior to February 5th, 2025, if the Speaker is satisfied, after consultation with the Executive Council and Members of the Legislative Assembly, that the public interest requires that the House should meet at an earlier time during the...

Thank you, Mr. Chair. The last question is was this conclusion reached that we have, like, a hole that -- or a gap that we need to fill here, was that based on some kind of survey or -- like, who has the department talked to to determine that we have this unmet need or this market for this kind of campground? Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. So it's important to consider how primary care access can be improved in the smaller communities outside regional centres, and my understanding is that a lot of work has been done to lay out what this model could look like, including in the physician workforce plan, such as having physicians be a territorial resource and assigning the same doctor or locum to a small community. So have steps been taken to implement this kind of model for physicians being used as a territorial resource to better serve smaller communities with primary care access? Thank you, Mr. Speaker.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. So to clarify, the idea is to stop people from setting up tents on the side of the road and to instead provide a campground where they can set up tents? Is it to prevent people from doing anything, like, illegally camping or just that we feel that people would prefer to pay to stay in a tent campground beside the road instead of just camping somewhere else on public land? Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I have further questions for the Minister of Health and Social Services.

So there have been many attempts over the years to plan what a proper NWT health care workforce should look like. Most recently, the physician workforce plan was prepared in 2020, lays out a vision for how physicians fit into an integrated model. Now I've seen references to this plan, but I haven't read it because it's not public. So, first, to the Minister, can this workforce plan be made public? Thank you, Mr. Speaker.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. So how much annual revenue is this new campground expected to bring in? Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Is the Minister aware of any studies or plans that have been prepared in the past that would give us an answer to the question of how many is the right number of practitioners for a certain number of patients per team? Do we have any studies that would direct us towards what is the appropriate number of patients per team? Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
