Thank you, Mr. Chairman. It is true we have cut the amount of money for core funding for administration of these organizations that operate on behalf of harvesters, hunters and trappers, but we have increased support and increased the amount of money flowing to the harvesters and hunters and trappers, for instance, through the Nunavut Harvester Program and the Western Harvester Support Program. So we are providing more program money directly to hunters and trappers. We have decreased the amount of dollars we are making available to the organizations for the operation of their offices. It reflects the cut backs being faced with all organizations, including the government. Thank you.
