Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, that's another area we've been working on, is going to southern universities and colleges to attract the new graduate nurses to the Northwest Territories. I'd have to check on what sort of incentives we have. We know for the Northwest Territories we have one of the best systems in place through our Student Financial Assistance Program, as well as what we've done through the Community Health Nurse Development Program, or the CHN Program as we call it, and trying to take our nurse graduates right out of their courses and give them additional education opportunities to go into our small communities, by covering bursaries as well as the fees and salaries to cover and help authorities in that area, and that program is starting to pay off as well. Thank you.
