Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, I believe that we need to ensure that there is a standardized and universal access to quality education for northern students, and I believe to start trying to supplement that obligation we have with funds that are raised on a voluntary basis or resources raised on a voluntary basis is very slippery and slow. I would be very hesitant to see this government fall prey to that. I believe that one of the recommendations in the report even suggests that the department should be assisting in helping people arrange for fundraising. I would like the Minister's comments on that. This will be my last question because there are other Members that would like to raise specific issues relative to their communities about fundraising. I just hope that the Minister would agree with me that this would be a very precarious position for the government to take. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
