Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Just a couple of quick general comments. With regard to law enforcement again, as the Minister knows, yesterday we had...(inaudible)...a justice team, and again I would like to reiterate, Mr. Chairman, that a student liaison officer by the RCMP in Yellowknife schools is unthinkable. Like I said yesterday, Mr. Chairman, Sachs Harbour is a community that requires a presence in their community.

Having said that, I'll go on to my next general comment with regard to legal aid services. It's good to see -- well, I hope it is -- that the law services office is open here in Yellowknife. It has been a long time coming for Yellowknife. But from what I understand, Mr. Chairman, is that it might be a little too small on office space. I don't know if that is true or not, but that is what I have been hearing.

I'd like to talk about the court services first, Mr. Chairman. In the main estimates we're looking at a new courthouse for Yellowknife, and it's astounding the amount of money that we can spend on courts. We're talking up to $41 million, Mr. Chairman, with regard to a new courthouse in Yellowknife over the next few years. With that amount of money, Mr. Chairman, I think we could do a lot of preventative maintenance for our people in the Territories. We could have more houses, like we talked about earlier, Mr. Chairman. Just on that note, Mr. Chairman, I will not support the spending of $41 million for a courthouse in Yellowknife when it comes down to voting on that issue. Just to be on notice, Mr. Chairman.

I'd like to talk a little bit about the young offenders, Mr. Chairman, with regard to wilderness camps and cultural programs. I think it is going to work in smaller communities. I know one instance in Tuktoyaktuk where the justice committee, at one time, talked about trying to open up a similar program to that for a wilderness camp

program for young offenders. The problem is that with the liability and the costs, they just can't afford something like that, especially for the interested couple that is willing to take the young offenders out for programs to understand the Inuvialuit way of life. Those are just general comments right now, Mr. Chairman. Thank you.
