Thank you, Madam Chair. Just a couple of comments and maybe a quick question. I like the fact that the Apprenticeship Program has not been reduced. In fact, it's been increased and I think that's a good thing. The Social Work Program that was offered at Aurora College, I understand, was cancelled because there were only six applicants. I was wondering if any of these applicants were maybe given another opportunity to go to school somewhere else, even if it means south. There is a lack of social workers in the Northwest Territories. We have six people who want to be social workers I think we should do what we can to try and encourage them, even if it means offering them a chance to go to school in the South. We shouldn't lose them while they're interested, otherwise they may find other career options. That's all I've got for now, Mr. Chairman. Thank you.
