Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, I am referring to a document received today from the Yellowknife Women's Centre. The letter states that the organization has received five complaints from Inuit, aboriginal and Metis people who have been denied social assistance or income support over a three-month period, since their return to their place of birth in the North. Would the Minister inform this House as to his knowledge, if any, of these allegations or whether or not residents born in the NWT have to put up with this treatment. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
