Madam Speaker, just to advise the honourable Member it was our view that a collective position from the community be taken on infrastructure needs. The fact is that maybe most of the resources that have been allocated could respond to aboriginal needs because it improves the quality of life for that community. If the honourable Member is saying that I should only take $1 million and not use other dollars, I think it could cause some problems. Certainly I can indicate to the honourable Member, we are already reviewing submissions that have been made by bands in conjunction and with the support of the municipal governments. So we are already considering that.
