Mr. Speaker, I assume the Member is referring to Lake Harbour. There is no intention to deprive Lake Harbour of any RCMP presence. However, because of financial constraints, I am currently discussing with the RCMP and with the Solicitor General for Canada and the commissioner of the RCMP for Canada how the available resources could best be deployed in the Northwest Territories. The debate and discussion is not at this point resolved, so I cannot at this point assure the Member that the Lake Harbour detachment will not be deprived of one member. There is no possibility that the police presence in Lake Harbour would be eliminated. Thank you.
