Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, my question is to the Minister of Education, Culture and Employment, who is also responsible, I believe, for communication matters. Earlier today Mr. Barnabas expressed concerns, that I also share, about the impact of the coming drastic cuts to CBC North. If these cuts are not reduced all residents of the north will suffer a long term loss of essential broadcasting services. A meeting was held in Ottawa, November 18th between representatives of this government and the president of CBC, Mr. Perrin Beatty. My question, will the minister please outline what further initiatives this government has taken to reduce cuts to CBC North since this meeting in November in Ottawa? Thank you.
