Thank you. If I'm correct, the honourable Member is quoting the title for a document that we actually developed. It is a consultation document that the government has sent out to the communities to get their advice on the whole matter of income reform and social program reform so that we ensure we get the advice of northern people in northern communities.

With regard to our involvement, this matter has been on the agenda of the Ministers of Education and Labour for the last year. We have been advising and discussing the issue of income and social program reform with the view that we would not be absent from any discussions of reform that would occur. In many respects, the provinces and the territories have indicated to the federal government that it was not our view that they should proceed with any reforms without our direct participation in the discussion.
