Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I have gone through the children and youth draft strategy as well as the agenda for children and youth and there are a number of concerns when you look at that strategy.

I would like to ask the Minister, have they put a dollar figure on the tremendous number of initiatives that are referenced in this document? All of which, in my opinion, require new money. The other comment would be, how much involvement have the other social envelope partners, Education, Culture and Employment for sure, had in this document, because the sense I get is almost an exclusive Health and Social Services focus? When I look at these issues, when you move back to page 21 and 22, corresponding action, a government wide commitment to provide resources and support of children, supporting work arrangements in all Government of the NWT funded settings, support employment programs for target high risk families. You pick anyone of these issues, increase accessibility to services by having them closer to home and by building community capacity. The list goes on and on and on.

I would assume significant amounts of new money. So this strikes me as almost like a wish list. If we had a perfect world, we had all the money we needed, this is what we will do.

My question to the Minister is have they quantified the money required? Is this going to be a doable strategy or is it just going to be a picture of some sort of Health and Social Services utopia, if there was lots of money?
