Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Formula funding, to my understanding, was formulated a number of years ago. I know, for example, that initially when block funding came out, it was based on historical expenditures. If in that time period, when they looked at block funding for the next number of years, if you had little or no capital infrastructure being put in place, it just rolled all together. If another community had large capital projects being replaced in that year that they looked at block funding, that block funding stayed at a high level for a number of years. We are just starting to see the changes to that.
I guess that is why I asked the question. When you refer to block funding, my understanding is that a lot of that initial block funding is O and M, and there was, initially at least, some capital criteria in that. I understand that the formulas have changed significantly now since those days and there was some work done on it by the department to try and simplify what the formula was in the past. I guess that is why I asked the question. If in the community of Inuvik, where right now we have paved roads, but I understand that in the past that was funded by ratepayers as well. My question is, are there existing programs within this government that would help with infrastructure like that in communities?
