Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I have just a quick question on community health programs. On the community services level, the emotional and social problems such as suicide which we do have a problem with here in the NWT. In the last 15 years I believe there's been about 20 suicides a year, and it seems to be not going down by any significant rate. I just want to know why in 2005 when we had almost $2 million in that program for community services, now we're only down to $1.3 million in that program. Why are we taking money away from something as critical as suicide prevention and intervention, Mr. Chair? Thank you.
