Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Yes, we do support the Aboriginal Head Start. I support Aboriginal Head Start program in the Northwest Territories. Any type of early childhood development programs that we can offer in all of our 33 communities in the Northwest Territories, I do support. It is a mandate of this government. I know where the Member's going in terms of bringing in junior kindergarten, and that's also one essential piece of the mandate developed by this 18thLegislative Assembly, and that is to support quality early childhood development in collaboration with existing organizations. Our department is working with Aboriginal Head Start in seeing how we can work together to provide these essential and critical programs and services to families and to the children.
