Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, there are foster families, as the Minister is aware, in my riding, who brought this issue forward to me. I am wondering if the Minister will be looking at consulting with other groups, other than just a single Yellowknife group. For example, there are foster parents in Rankin, Cambridge Bay, and other places in the Northwest Territories that are impacted by the impact of the foster care rate reductions. Given the fact that the Minister made a good statement on National Foster Family Week this week, I am wondering is he looking at consulting with other foster families and parents in the Northwest Territories.
