The reason I ask, I believe in the total budget there are some $2.4 million which are spent in foster homes in Alberta. If anything, I think we should be ensuring that we develop the capacity in the North to retain those children in the Northwest Territories and not send them to southern institutions.

The Minister mentioned that it is spent in the North. Are they spent at headquarters? At the regional level? You mentioned that they are spent in the communities, but I would like to know exactly where and in which communities those expenditures are made.
