Thank you, Madam Chair. I am responding to Mr. Ramsay's earliest comments to courses like home economics. Currently technology studies do incorporate courses like home economics. What we are hoping is in a number of schools where they haven't been getting enough funding for student support, we are increasing dramatically this year and next year. Where they haven't been getting enough funding for physical education, we are bringing up the funding there significantly. Where they haven't been getting enough funding for trades training, many schools have been putting the money into those areas. What we are hoping is that when we provide the funding, it will provide some flexibility so that the schools will be able to expand their offerings in other areas. I expect we will see that in schools across the Territories.
In terms of early childhood development, the government, at this point, does not provide space for childcare, so we are not into providing centres. We are, as you know, talking about increasing our contributions to operators to try to make it easier for operators to be successful.
We are also looking at increasing the user subsidies. We do provide a larger subsidy to operators who provide spaces for children with challenges. So there is a recognition within our funding formula of the higher cost that may be there for children who need special services. Thank you, Madam Chair.
