Thank you, Mr. Chairman. On page 9-18, under college contributions, there is funding for training opportunities for northern residents. Mr. Chairman, the Minister for MACA has agreed to undertake the development of a community development program which would be for a certificate and diploma program at the college level. She had indicated she would be approaching the other members of the social envelope for assistance and cooperation in this regard. Could the Minister indicate his willingness to cooperate with the Minister of MACA and her staff so we can ensure the Community Development Program is properly developed and, hopefully, implemented in the next coming year, whether it is September or January? Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. We certainly are prepared to work together with other departments and the college and look at how such a program could be developed.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Mr. Chairman, my question is in relation to page 9-17, community income support delivery. I note that in the opening comments of the Minister, he refers to the Bureau of Statistics to carry out a survey that would define the cost of healthy food baskets in each NWT community. Mr. Chairman, I wonder if the Minister could confirm that each community in the NWT will have a survey done as to the cost of food baskets in that particular community.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. That is correct. In every community across the north, the department is cooperating with the Bureau of Statistics to survey food costs to determine how much costs in each community (a
representative sampling of foods)

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I am encouraged with the response because I have been advised that the survey that was being undertaken was only in relation to big communities. I am encouraged to hear the Minister say that each community will be surveyed because there is quite a difference between the small communities and the larger centres. With that, Mr. Chairman, I have no further questions on this particular item.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. My question to the Minister is in regard to page 9-17, the town of Iqaluit, where they received $3.074 million. How did they come up with that formula and what was it based on? How did they come up with $3 million?

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. The $3 million includes the program's costs, as well as administration. It is a block contribution to the community. The formula used to calculate the administration cost is the same in Iqaluit as it is in every other community in the north.
