Yes, we do engage with other departments in terms of cultural awareness training, as well as the blanket exercise. Myself, I participated in the blanket exercise when I first got elected and was given the portfolio of Education, Culture and Employment. When I did it, we had other jurisdictions: Saskatchewan, Alberta, and Yukon. Nunavut participated in this as well, and we do encourage other departments and other leadership in the Northwest Territories who want to participate in this type of cultural awareness training. We would be more than happy to facilitate it as well, as we do have the train the trainers programs as well, and actually even with the City of Yellowknife, working with them to get some cultural awareness training for their staff and employees as well.
