Thank you, Mr. Speaker. My question is to the Minister of Education, Culture and Employment Programs. At first I was glad when I learned the government would be combining education, culture and employment, as I thought this would mean the educational system could be structured to better meet the cultural needs of the people in the smaller communities. I was also glad when the Honourable Richard Nerysoo became the Minister because I know he understands the difficulties we face when we are trying to ensure the survival of the aboriginal culture. Mr. Speaker, earlier today I talked about the problems which many Dene families face when they have to go into the bush. For a long time I have thought it would be helpful to have a place where their children can stay and continue to attend school. Is the Minister willing

to explore the possibility of funding the development of hostels or cultural survival centres where this could take place?
