Mr. Chairman, I think if we look at our per capita funding, you will see that Yellowknife is way out, less than any of the small communities. The difference is that they collect revenue through taxing. People pay for what they get. That is really the difference, that the tax-based communities have the ability to tax. The small communities do not. Their per capita funding is far higher, in some cases, almost double what Yellowknife gets. So it is not a matter of this government not giving them enough money per capita. It is just that they do not have the large enough populations to get large funding.

Again, the major difference is the taxing ability of the tax-based communities.
