Can I ask why? Has it been looked at and investigated? Is there a reason why these types of facilities are not being utilized?

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Mr. Chairman, can I ask Mr. Koe what facilities he is talking about? Through our contributions and grants we do fund local organizations that have on the land projects.

Thank you. Mr. Koe, would you care to clarify?

Yes. There has been a lot of discussion on the use of group homes, emergency homes, emergency group homes, emergency family homes and whatever else you call them. Plus, in our special committee report we talked about the use
of other types of homes. A lot of the current facilities are not providing that type of care and service. Most of them are somewhere else. They are in another community or a major centre. So you are always bringing people out of their environment into a foreign environment and expect to cure them.
What we heard from the people is we have camps and we can enhance them. In the Inuvik region, they are building some good facilities to utilize for treatment. These are used for young people so they can have an environment where they can experience their own culture and have elders and trained counsellors to work with them in an environment they should be more used to. A lot of kids are not used to it, but the move is to try to get them back into the culture some of us have been brought up in.
In terms of planning, is the department looking at utilizing more on the land facilities, rather than keep building up these group homes and different institutions with locks and sliding doors?

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I try to encourage the department, especially if the majority of the children or the population is of aboriginal descent I prefer to be looking at culturally-relevant programs. If there are such programs out in the communities, I can voice that to the department heads. I am open to such ideas that my colleague is talking about. At the present time, it is true that the group homes we have in the large centres don't have any on the land programs. Thank you.
