Mr. Speaker, two weeks ago we had a public meeting with the RCMP. One of the officers did indicate that they hate to be proved wrong or proved right. I, too, hate to risk the lives or risk a major incident that will threaten the safety and wellbeing of our constituents that they were wrong in doing this. I believe it was a wrong decision, I maintain that, just for the mere fact that some of the changes in the community affect the outlying smaller communities like Wrigley, Jean Marie and Nahanni Butte. One of them was the government liberalizing the alcohol rationing system in Fort Simpson. People are accessing more booze, and they are bringing it to the communities and in Fort Simpson itself. As well, of course, increased development that is already happening; there are drifters in the community disrupting the balance that is there right now. I would just like to ask, will the government and the Minister indicate our displeasure and lobby for us to maintain our existing staffing levels in that Fort Simpson RCMP detachment? Thank you.

---Applause
