Thank you, Mr. Chair. I wanted to follow-up with some questions about the Metis health benefits. I think my colleague covered the funding aspects and the legal requirement to move on it quite well. I've heard there's a concern from some people that the quality of prospective benefits that the federal government's now obliged to offer won't be of the same quality that we currently provide.
So I guess my question is, will we be using any incoming funding to -- will we lapse our program and just take the new federal program or will we find some way to maintain the benefits? Can we give people certainty that we'll maintain benefits at their current level or improve them with federal money and not diminish anything that Northerners are currently receiving? Thank you, Mr. Chair.
