Thank you, Mr. Speaker. It was brought to my attention by one of the post-secondary students from my region that the NWT program for living allowance for a single student is $522.86 and the DIAND program for a single student is $675 a month; and that DIAND program figure is from 1989 -- it is not even up to date. I would like to know, since this government usually likes to keep up with the Indian and Northern Affairs' figures, why the NWT program is a lot lower than DIAND's.
