First of all, let me state very clearly, whether I'm the Minister or not the Minister of MACA, I'm a strong advocate of, and will continue to be a strong advocate of, the development of arenas in these small communities. I know, in my experience, that they've...I don't know who initiated this program a few years back, but it is probably one of the most successful programs we've had, with respect to providing facilities for our children to operate and play out of. We are taking, and have to take, a flexible approach to people's contribution to these arena facilities. Not all communities have the capacity to generate cash. Some communities are sitting at 60 and 70 per cent unemployment and we have to find another way to do that. That's what this approach is all about.
I do recognize Mr. Gargan's point and that is, in his home community, there was a tremendous and commendable effort in putting large sums of money together to put his arena in place. I was in that arena and community hall and it's a wonderful building. I will, if given some time, provide Mr. Gargan with the information that he's requested. It was back to 1983, I believe. Correct? I do want to stress that, in 1993, this is the approach of the department; it's a flexible approach to the contribution to ensure that this community arena program, which was initiated before my time comes forward into completion. It's my understanding that we're close to that now. Almost every community in the Arctic now has one, I believe. Mr. Menard tells me that's so. I will be only too happy to provide the honourable Member with the all the information he's requested. Thank you.
