Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, my question is to the Minister of Education. It is regarding to my statement of problems that my constituents have run into, especially the ones that are going off to post-secondary education and striving for their bachelor degrees in education. This particular constituent of mine has found herself in financial difficulty with Revenue Canada. Yet she is an aboriginal, Inuit person and I would like to ask the Minister regarding the education funding policy and programs that this government delivers on, what association does, the acts have in relation to the Indian Act and aboriginal peoples' rights to education and also the exemption from paying taxes for that particular right? I would like to ask the Minister, can he tell me, are there any exemptions available to students that we do send to southern institutions to get their bachelors degree in education and also how we can assist these students when they find themselves in difficult times? Can the Minister tell me, what is available to this individual who has found herself in difficulties with Revenue Canada?
