(Translation) Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I will be speaking Inuktitut, with respect to the question from the Member of Natilikmiot. I would like to thank him for his question. With respect to the $600,000 from the Department of Municipal and Community Affairs, I understand it will be useful and used for a good purpose. Part of the funding will be used for training purposes and Municipal and Community Affairs is not the only department that is going to have a responsibility for it. The Department of Education, Culture and Employment is also involved in this initiative and regional communities will be given $30,000 to $40,000 from the $600,000 amount we are talking about. This will be used for training purposes with respect to Internet and computer communication. Perhaps $600,000 is not enough for full initiative on training. That is all I have to say for now, Mr. Speaker. Thank you. (Translation ends)
