Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I am not quite sure how that would affect the pilot project proposal. My question to the Minister would be, would the Minister consider the fact that Baker Lake is looking for block funding on its own, so they can be empowered closer to their own region or their own community, as opposed to having other communities decide as to what their needs are, how money will be spent, where it will be shifted around and what their priorities are? Would the Minister consider this, true community empowerment, as opposed to having somebody else decide on what their priorities will be? Thank you.
