The last thing I wanted to speak about is under the programs for residential care, specifically under the adults, because you know a number of our elders have to go to Inuvik for long-term care. Just recently one of our elders from one of the communities had to move to Inuvik because of illness and hasn’t been given much time actually. The sad thing about it is we’re actually billing this elder every month. You know, that person is really frustrated at the moment with not only having to deal with his illness but also being charged up to $800 a month to be staying at the long-term care.
