Thank you, Mr. Chairman. The reason I asked is if you limit it to the criteria of children and family resource centres, a lot of the communities will miss out because they do not have that. A lot of our smaller communities do have youth centres that could meet the requirement of this, sort of a learning centre or program centre for the youth, and also to allow for families to take part in those different programs. What I do not want to see is communities that are somehow turned away because they do not meet the criteria of this program because they may have a youth centre, but they do not fill the requirement the department may ask for. That is why I think it is important to change the wording to reflect that. Will the Minister consider adding that they will also consider youth centres as facilities to administer this program in communities where we do not have children and family resource centres?
