Madam Chair, I’ve had a lot of conversations with the Member, especially when we are travelling through the Sahtu, and we know the challenges that they’re facing with alcohol in the small communities and we are looking to work with the communities.

Once again, I go back to the community policing strategies or the community policing plans that are done between the RCMP and the community. It’s a great opportunity for the communities to make sure that their voice is being heard with respect to

policing. It’s going to continue to happen and we look forward to the partnerships. The Member is right; Colville Lake is a great example of a community who is standing up and saying no to alcohol use in their community, and if we can get those kind of relationships going with other communities, we can really start to see some change.
