First, like everybody else, I wanted to thank you for coming and for your information.
I hope we're coming to the end of this work and soon we're going to table a report to Parliament asking for action on poverty and all the attendant symptoms and reasons. I've said this a number of times, and the committee is probably getting tired of hearing it, but for me three pieces stand out that we need to address particularly, among others, I'm sure. One is income security. Another is housing, which everybody has mentioned today at least once, if not three or four times, and supported housing. And the third is one I think the three of you spoke to very nicely this afternoon, the whole notion of social inclusion, that we have to somehow reorganize our communities to be supportive of people with special needs and to include them in the ordinary day-to-day life of that community in a way that is healthy.
We are told the Yukon is developing a strategy on social inclusion, and the corollary of social inclusion is social exclusion. They're going to be looking at things like poverty, housing, education, employment, and social participation. I like the way it's framed. It will provide evidence-based research and measures and social indicators to help the government take appropriate action toward the goal of supporting all members of society and promoting healthy living.
Are you engaged in that? Are they engaging you? Are you involved in that process? What do you think of it? Any one of you can answer.
