Thank you, Mr. Chair. The corrections service has a number of different programs to support holistic healing and try to respect the cultural beliefs and values of individuals that are housed in our facilities. These range from healing circles, which are also done by probation as well, and smudging, on-the-land types of activities including participation in hunts. In Hay River there's a specific area on the facility grounds that is dedicated to traditional programming, as well as at the South Mackenzie Correctional Centre there is a traditionally-based program to support addictions treatment and readiness for addictions treatment. So there are a number of things like this that we have within the Corrections Service. Thank you, Mr. Chair.
