Thank you, Mr. Speaker. The level of assistance, I guess, is another issue that we can talk about at a different time, but even though you are only a resident of Alberta for 12 months you are not entitled to as much student financial assistance as what you would be entitled to here in the NWT should you have been a resident here. I just want to know if we are going to get more and more students, with the better transportation mode, better able to move people around, students around in the NWT, there's going to be more students that will be going to private schools down in the South to finish off their high school diplomas, and I think the numbers are going to be going up because people are going to be seeing some success in that. These people want to come back to the NWT, move back to their communities and work for their people here in the NWT. How can our student financial assistance ensure that these students won't be struggling down in some place where they don't have any programs or eligibility requirements, if there's nothing like that? How can we help them from the NWT standpoint, Mr. Speaker?
