Thank you, Mr. Speaker. The funding provided for language development and the amount for the different ethnic groups is not my question. My question is; why are there different types of student financial assistance for different ethnic groups if the money was not slated for different groups?

If the money was not coming from the federal government to the Government of the Northwest Territories for treaty Indians, then why are they treated differently from the Metis, the Inuvialuit and the non-aboriginal people? Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
