Thank you, Mr. Chairman. The other area that I have concerns about is the lack of capacity in our communities to deal with the social issues, in light of the economic activity that is going on in our regions. We realize that there will be social implications in relation to that activity, especially in the area of alcohol and drugs, people who get into trouble with the law.

Elsewhere, we have seen the boom/bust scenario of the 70's. I would like to ask the Minister what he is doing to assist communities to deal with the social issues around economic development in our communities?
