Thank you, Mr. Speaker. If we are going to provide subsidies to one, we have to provide to subsidies to all if we want to make sure that there is equity. I think that there are only two ways to accomplish the equity, but I would certainly be happy to take a look at what we could do. I would be happy to put more money into child day care. I think that it is an area that we need to invest in. It is an area that I am planning to bring forward some investment plans in. I think we have to be careful. We are not just talking about profit or non-profit things here. All of the centres in the Northwest Territories are non-profit. So there isn't a competition between somebody who is making a profit and somebody who is not making a profit. All of our centre-based programs are non-profit. We have not just one in Yellowknife that is in a subsidized space; there are a number. So there are a whole bunch of people who will be impacted by this.
