Thank you, Mr. Chairman. From that, I would assume then that we have been lapsing $140,000 in this program area consistently. I guess I would say, given the importance of the issue of mental health and the small amount of money that we put into the promotion of mental health, why would we not have looked for some way to ensure that one of the community organizations was accessing this money and putting it to good use throughout the Territories? I think the Minister is well aware of some of the problems that are faced in the North by people who could use some help from some of the NGOs and it is sometimes not available. This could help them to perhaps spread their wings rather than cutting the money back to find some way of putting it to good use.
