Thank you, Madam Chair. That's a challenging question and I don't have the numbers to give the Member on that. I can say, though, that the vast majority of people who collect income support in the Northwest Territories don't do it on a month
to-month-to-month basis. There's a regular cycle of people on and off the program. So it would appear that people are making productive choices. They're coming in when they need a bit of a hand-up, and they're getting that assistance when it's needed, and then they're moving back into looking after themselves when they can. There are some people who will be on income support for a long period of time who aren't going to be able to make a productive choice that means getting them totally self-sufficient. But that doesn't mean that the productive choice doesn't help out with getting them making a benefit or being a benefit in the community. So for instance, a productive choice could be for somebody to go out and harvest meat for elders in their community. In that case, that's a perfectly acceptable productive choice. Or stay at home and look after young children is a productive choice that is perfectly acceptable for young mothers. There are a number of options, and the goal of the program is to provide assistance to those who need it. What we find is that most people don't need it for a long time. Most people come into the office when they need assistance, they get the assistance for whatever period of time they need it, and then they're off the assistance and we don't see them for awhile. So we think that the productive choices are helping people get out, and get involved, and be productive members of society. Thank you, Madam Chair.
