Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I know the Member brings a lot of passion to this issue, because he has a history of involvement in literacy, and particularly working with the college. He is absolutely right. We know the figures. We know that people in the North are much less likely to be working if they don't have an adequate education. Since 2003, we've had four literacy funds that have been administered by our regional offices, including the workplace education fund, the community skills for Work, community literacy projects, and literacy programs and support for seniors. Those are some of the extra things that we are doing, in order to ensure that we have more money available for different kinds of literacy programming in various communities.
We have also, just in the last couple of years, agreed to core funding for the NWT Literacy Council, and we've managed to maintain and slightly increase their funding over the last year, to help them help community organizations better deliver literacy programming. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
