I do, Mr. Chairman and I can provide the House with a copy as I indicated I would provide the committee. If I may quickly indicate to him, there are nine in Nunavut and eight in the west: Iqaluit, Pond Inlet, Arviat, Kugluktuk, Kimmirut, Clyde River, Hay River, Hall Beach, Rae Lakes, Fort Smith, Fort Providence, Aklavik, Fort McPherson, Inuvik and Fort Simpson.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Can the Minister give us the actual amounts for each of these locations so we can see exactly how much money has been spent in these different locations so that we can compare the different camps?

All I have at this time is the $210,000 for the start-up costs. I want to remind everybody, if anybody listened as intently as I did, I am sure others did, to Mr. Arlooktoo's statement today, this is part of an overall plan that is multi-year in its nature and I indicate to committee, and I say again today, that we would be prepared to provide them with all the detail required as to where the expenditures would be over that multi-year period. This expenditure is the funding of wilderness camps of $210,000. I do not have here today with me what communities it is for. Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
