Mr. Speaker, the only money that we get that is specifically for aboriginal people and a treaty right is for aboriginal health care. That is the only money that is linked directly to a treaty right. All of the other money that we get in the Northwest Territories through our formula is for all residents, it's not broken down to so much for treaty people and so much for other people. We get an amount of money based on our population and other factors, but it's for everyone. So there's only the one program that I can think of off hand that is strictly for aboriginal people, and that's for aboriginal health. There's none for education as such. Thank you.
