Thank you, Madam Chair. Madam Chair, the suggestions by my colleague are good ones. The issue of Nats' Ejee K'eh is going to go on the table for the authorities and the department to look at as a collective. It would seem to me that one of the possible options is being able to deliver two or three different kinds of programs over the course of a year that would deal with a number of issues, be it youth or families or men. Clearly we have to look at where our need is, southern placements, what the communities are telling us, and how do we in fact gear up that facility. It is a very good facility, it is a northern facility. It has a very good aboriginal component, it is culturally appropriate, so I think this is one where we have room to move. So I agree with the Member, we have to sit down as we will be with the authorities, as I indicated with the department, to look at the best kind of programming that may be possible to make the best possible use of this facility. Thank you.
