Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Like everything in this budget, it is our best forecast. There is not a guarantee of how many cases we will have in Iqaluit or any other community. When it comes to forecasting demand for social assistance, we provide our best estimates and that is what we work with. There is no science which tells us how many dollars we will actually need in Yellowknife, Iqaluit, Gjoa Haven, or any of the communities in the north.
