That brings up concerns. So, over the last eight years we’ve been following a policy for the way we fund our daycares the same way, and in that time, whether the funding pot that we’ve had, we’ve also had an increase in daycare operators throughout the Northwest Territories. I see that in the budget address there’s $1.12 million that’s being allocated to early childhood to improve childhood outcomes. A lot of that money is going into wages and training.
I’d like to ask the Minister, when he’s looking at putting those out into the communities, can he take a look at where we have the highest cost of living or where there’s the greatest need to put these dollars, whether it’s here in Yellowknife, whether it’s in Fort Smith or in Inuvik, where there’s the highest need for the increases and the distribution of these funds. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
