Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I enjoyed that history lesson on the northern allowance package. However, the point is that these cuts are affecting the long-term northern residents who have been here 10, 15 or 20 years working for this government. That's the point. Mr. Speaker, the majority of our workers who are working at the entry level are aboriginal, at the $30,000 to $40,000 rate. My point is that these people are going to be affected. I'm prepared today to table in this House a document showing that. I'm
still waiting for a document from the Minister of Finance that was asked for last week.
Mr. Speaker, my supplementary question to the Minister is will he commit to reviewing the proposed reductions based on these inequities. That's all I'm asking for.
