Thank you. Just one last area at this time. The Healthy Child Initiative, if I could get the same type of information as what that represents and the full breakout as possible, again, including that one and of course the same point stands, as full a breakout as possible under the Early Childhood Program. So could the Minister extend the same process for Healthy Children Initiative? The reason I raise this is because there are programs here in Yellowknife and the Catholic school runs an Early Childhood Program and a Toy Lending Library. They are significantly challenged by getting enough funding through this. They get some funding through their school authority, but they have to turn more kids away than they can provide space to. I suspect that’s not an unusual problem and it’s a shame that it’s a problem. I wish we had more space than kids can subscribe to and I just want to learn a little more about that, because I think this is an initiative that I certainly would like to see all communities subscribe more to and, I mean, I’m of the belief that all early childhood education should be supplied to all children at the cost of the government to help parents in any way. So rather than debating my concerns and policies here that we should be going forward with, I certainly wouldn’t mind the information and I’m sure a few other Members would like it at the same time. So if the Minister could commit to providing the Healthy Children Initiative information, that will be all on this page for me. Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
