Mr. Chairman, is the government going to review the home boarding program or the hostel program that, I guess, many of us were persuaded to oppose support of a home boarding program, and whether or not the communities are going to have an opportunity to indicate whether or not they support that particular program, and whether or not they would like to change direction. I guess I am making mention of this because a few years ago I was convinced by the Minister at that time, I guess it was Mr. Patterson, to go the home boarding route and to cancel two 10-bed hostels in my community of Fort McPherson, so I am just kind of curious as to the direction you want to take us now, or whether or not the communities could influence the policy in changing it into this type of initiative.
