Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Mr. Chairman, my knowledge is that the needs of Jean Marie River are no different from the needs of Lutselk'e. Lutselk'e's needs are no different from the needs of Yellowknife when it comes to adults who require upgrading. Why is it that we continue to use population base to determine policies and program delivery to Northerners right across the board? We as a government argue time and time again that we should not be penalized for our small population when it comes to financial transfer agreements so why are we doing it to our communities at this level? Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
