Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I wanted to ask both witnesses some questions. I think I'll start with Dr. O'Connor.
When you started out your testimony you talked about the baseline basically being anecdotal or cultural stories that you've heard about how things used to be. You said they didn't have a word for “cancer”. I'm sure they didn't have a word for “epidemiologist” at some point in their language either. And I say that with respect, because there are differences.
I represent a large first nations area in my constituency in Alberta, and I note that there are different health concerns on that reserve than in the neighbouring communities, and that is in large part due to cultural choices and cultural practices.
Do you know what the smoking rate is in Fort Chipewyan?
