For the record, I’d like to advise the Member that I am doing that exact thing for Tuktoyaktuk, if he would hear it. I’ve said that in my answer to MLA Yakeleya. We have a million dollars to do wellness programming in the Beaufort-Delta. The Member has indicated that that is not enough. So I have been working with IRC to create an after-care program. IRC has agreed to provide $100,000 and we are going to provide $100,000 a year; that’s $200,000. That is $25,000 more than what we are providing to BHP for the centre in Yellowknife. I have said that. So, Mr. Speaker, I think it’s clear that I have heard the Member, who has been telling me a lot about a lot more things we need to do for Tuktoyaktuk. I’ve been trying to get in partnership with IRC, and we have done that and we are about to make an announcement on that.
