Hon. Sharon Carstairs:

Honourable senators, my next question is about evacuations. In almost all cases in northern reserves, people who are seriously ill must be medevaced. In most cases, they are medevaced to Winnipeg. The ICU beds are beginning to run short in the city of Winnipeg. Does the government have an emergency strategy in place so that these patients can be medevaced to communities other than Winnipeg in order to get the ICU services they will require?
