Thank you very much, Mr. Chairman. I think one of the first things I would do as Premier is continue to support the Small Community Employment Program that currently exists. I certainly won’t be supportive of cuts to jobs in the smaller communities in any of our departments. That’s not very conducive to the creation of those communities. One job in a small community of $60,000 to $80,000 has a huge impact. Every job in a small community is needed. I believe by supporting programs and services for the smaller communities and improving them, that we will create employment opportunities, because we will need people in those communities to run those programs and services.
