Thank you. Oral questions. Final supplementary, Mrs. Groenewegen.

Mr. Arlooktoo.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. If I could clarify once again, why or how I knew what the RCMP was here for, I understand that I, as the Minister of Justice, was accused of having written the note and therefore the RCMP contacted me to investigate whether I did or not, and I did not. That is why I knew. I want to clarify again, the rules of protocol for the House of the RCMP going in the House, that is the domain of the Speaker and the Speaker's authority and not the government. That needs to be very clear. Thank you.

Thank you. Oral questions. Mr. Krutko.

The Minister of Municipal and Community Affairs, Ms. Thompson.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. The Department of Municipal and Community Affairs provides $10,000 to the ski division board of directors and the board of directors finds other funds somewhere else. In this case, they found some funds from Human Resources Canada to maintain the training programs. It is within their authority to make sure that the programs are running as smoothly as possible. I have every confidence in this board of directors that they are doing that. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.

Thank you. Oral questions. Supplementary, Mr. Krutko.

Ms. Thompson.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I will have my staff ensure that all the communities are treated fairly by this division. Thank you.

Oral questions. Mr. Erasmus.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I am not exactly sure who to refer my questions to, but I will refer them to the Premier, regarding something Mr. Roland brought up earlier. I am also getting rumblings from my constituency, that a lot of time is being used here for issues that can be discussed elsewhere. We may run into extra costs at a later date because of the extra time needed. One of the issues, of course, that has been taking a lot of time is Lahm Ridge Tower and its relation to the Aurora Fund. There still is the misconception out there, I think it is a misconception, that the Aurora Fund was somehow involved with the purchase of the Lahm Ridge Tower building. I would like to know if the Premier could indicate, once and for all, whether the Aurora Fund was in any way related to the purchase of the Lahm Ridge Tower building?

Thank you. Mr. Premier.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. The Aurora Fund, we have tabled in this House, all the loans that are given out by that fund. There is no loan from the Aurora Fund for the purchase of Lahm Ridge Tower. Through the chronological order of events and hundreds of questions the Ministers answered on this issue and all the information he has given to this House, unless there are some other issues that arise, it is very clear Lahm Ridge Tower was financed by a bank or a financing company. It was financed privately. It was not financed through the Aurora Fund. Pacific Western financed Lahm Ridge Tower. Thank you.

Oral questions. Mr. Ootes.

Mr. Premier.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I will be relaying those questions to the Minister responsible. I will take them as notice so the Member can get his detailed answer as soon as possible. Thank you.

Thank you. The question is taken as notice. Oral questions. Mr. Roland.

Mr. Premier.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. As Members are well aware, we had quite a few new Members in this Legislative Assembly, as well as, new Ministers. We had talked at the beginning of our term about perception. There is one thing that you cannot control and that is how people do their politics and perception rises from politics. There is no control, no matter what you do as a government. You can answer any given question 1000 times, you can give out all the information, but people may not be happy with the answers or the information. Some may think it is something else and I have no control over that, neither does any Member of my Cabinet. We, as a government, deal with issues straight-on, head-on, and we deal with them and it is done. As a government, we have done a lot of good things in the last two and a half years. We will do a lot more good things in the future, Mr. Speaker. As far as perception, there is a certain lack of control on that one, Mr. Roland. Thank you.
