Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, the community referred to the Community Constable Program which they undertook and obviously residents were not feeling that this was adequate police protection in light of the amount of increased crime that has been taking place in the community. One of the things mentioned, Mr. Speaker, by the community was the increase in bootlegging, drug trafficking and drug use, which contributes toward serious crime. My next question to the Minister, Mr. Speaker, would be, I understand the RCMP is going to be responding to the community, but I wonder if there is still opportunity for the RCMP or the Department of Justice to actually go and discuss the problem face to face with the community. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
