Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, the Ministry of Aboriginal Affairs is a very small department. We have about 20 personnel in that department. We have a fairly small budget of which we are stretched pretty thin in terms of trying to cover all the bases with regard to being at the negotiating table for land claims as well as self-government arrangements. We have a very small budget for grants and contribution and exactly how much money we have going toward educating the public with regard to what the honourable Member is asking for, I do not have that at my fingertips. I will have to dig it up from my department and get back to him. Thank you.
