Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Education, Culture and Employment would be happy to work with anybody in any community in terms of trying to find a way to help operations get started. But care for children under the age of four is the primary responsibility of the parents. Our government provides assistance to day cares to get started in terms of capital. We have start-up grants. In terms of operations, we have grants to both day care providers and to parents. But it has been our policy that this government is providing assistance to parents, we're not the primary caregivers.
