Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Mr. Chairman, earlier, the Minister indicated that there has been a lot of interest expressed by a number of communities. If I recall, out of 70 odd communities, he indicated about 45 communities expressed interest. If I recall correctly, Mr. Chairman, when we first announced this initiative, there was great interest expressed by all communities; particularly medium-sized communities such as Cape Dorset and Fort Good Hope which have successfully completed transfers. But, after looking at how the initiatives were being handled, a lot of communities were turned off because of the complications of the process we have in place.

I disagree, at this point in time, with the Minister saying that there's a lot of interest out there. I don't think that's the case. In my view, Mr. Chairman, the interest is no longer there. I would like to ask the Minister if he could provide to our committee the names of the communities that his staff have travelled to in the last year and how many of these communities are seriously pursuing transfer of this particular initiative; transfer of programs for this initiative?
