Madam Speaker, I listened closely to my colleague's question and the answer is yes; I agree. I say what is on my mind and I think Health Canada is doing good work in first nations communities. There are five first nations communities in my riding. I have visited a number of them as the Bloc critic for Indian Affairs and Northern Development Canada. I do not have anything negative to say about Health Canada.
However, that is not the problem. The problem is that Health Canada is working on an individual basis with people who have mental, physical, psychiatric, psychological and other problems. Health Canada provides individual assistance, unlike the Aboriginal Healing Foundation, which does community work. I received a good explanation of how the Aboriginal Healing Foundation works in Pikogan, near Amos. It works with and within the community. It is not individual work, as Health Canada does. I respect that. I know that and we understand that this work will continue.
However, we are concerned about putting an end to the magnificent work the Aboriginal Healing Foundation is doing, the reconciliation work and the community-based work, because that is where we might run into problems.
