Thank you, Mr. Speaker. My question will be directed to the honourable Minister of Education, Charles Dent. As I indicated in my Member's statement that 11 students at Arctic College in Pangnirtung registered on January 12, 1998, and these students were doing northern studies towards Nunavut. These 11 students did not get paid for four weeks and they received a pay of $100 for two weeks. This is very low when you have two kids or five kids to feed. Can the honourable Minister please explain to this House what is the policy of this government in order to give out student allowances for student financial assistance? Thank you.
