Thanks to the Minister for that and for the commitment. I guess I would just state that I have a difficulty with the philosophy of this particular grant. I certainly appreciate that territorial residents are probably going to get the benefit of this money, but the optics of this particular grant and contribution is really troubling me. It leads me to consider that...I believe we have way too many grants and contributions in many areas of the budget; this is just one example. I think the department should consider if we are going to be making grants, that they are only made to grants that are a territorial organization. Thank you.
