Thank you, Mr. Chairman. believe the Member has a very good point; I do believe there is potential for looking at alternatives to the present very expensive arrangement. For example, I expect to meet soon with a community in the Keewatin that wants to talk about better utilizing their community by-law officers to help with police services in the community and help provide those services as an alternative to providing members to the RCMP. So I am very open to ideas like that, but I think they will work best when they are coming from the community level.
