Thank you, Mr. Chairman. In regards to the motion, I think we also have to take into light that there are other organizations out there, especially the aboriginal organizations that have been cut, some cases 100 percent of their funding. I think we do have to keep in mind that they do similar work as the Status of Women's Council, in regards to the Native Women's Association, Metis Nation. We have to realize that some of these groups are delivering programs and services on behalf of the people they represent, and I think, in order to be fair to the other organizations, we should also reinstate their funding to the original amount. If it is okay with the mover of the motion, I would like to add that the $60 thousand for the Metis Nation also be reinstated in this motion.
