Mr. Chair, this particular program is not a huge project. It’s a small project where there may be three, four, five inmates that volunteer to go out on the land. It’s not a money-making initiative. We provide services, we provide resources to certain camps that can operate. But with the existing camp the Member is referring to, it could be a huge camp that we may not be able to subsidize the whole thing if there is only one or two inmates from that particular region. We have to take all of those into consideration. But certainly if there are interests from the Member’s riding, they can go through the MLA to our department. We will certainly be more than happy to accept proposals from the region if they want to take on a correction camp out on the land. We’re open for that as well. So we are looking forward to working with the regions. Mahsi.
