We do provide grants to students up to six years and another up to $60,000 for loans that can be remissed as well. We do offer an attractive benefit for students to either obtain a degree program, master’s program, even to PhD level. Upon their return they can certainly be remiss on their loan. Even though we say it’s a loan, it’s paid off by itself as well. We do provide as much as we can through the SFA Program and not only that, but there are other First Nations scholarship programs and university scholarships. There are a variety of subsidies available to them in all jurisdictions.
