Mr. Chairman, the proposed budget we have here also has an allocation to address the base deficiency which has been plaguing the RCMP in the past few years. By addressing that and filling in the deficiency they have suffered, it gives them much more flexibility in not only meeting the needs of the communities which have been denied police services, but also the possible flexibility to respond to situations such as Fort Providence. I cannot say for certain it will be done, but I know this budget will give the RCMP that necessary flexibility to respond, if that is the direction we give them.
