This is a million dollar plus issue, so I would appreciate a response. I know that the people putting together the plan for the Chipewyan language community would and, I am sure, so would the Metis people of the South Slave.
I do have a further question, Mr. Chairman. My understanding is, once again, looking at the numbers, that the available proportional funding by population is $908,000 for all the language communities. My recollection is there was an agreement signed with the federal government for $1.9 million. I was wondering if the Minister could elaborate on where the other $1 million would be? This was a May 2 letter sent to the language community and signed by the assistant deputy minister, Ms. Gordon. They wrote the formulas and proportion.
