Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I must say this has been a successful project, a tripartite partnership between the federal government, territorial government and an NGO of council, and now the territorial government is going to reduce its support just at a time when it's really gaining momentum. Mr. Speaker, it's really a crying shame, as the Member for Sahtu would say, that this Cabinet and government fights tooth and nail to protect every government position, every dollar in their other expenses, but not fight for a program that has been so successful for our children. So I would ask the Minister for his full commitment to see what he can do to restore this program. Thank you.
