Thank you, Mr. Chair. The First Nations Policing Program is not quite the Aboriginal Constable Program, but it is a program from the federal government to support Aboriginal communities in the provision of policing services, and it does offer a different cost-sharing arrangement than our current police services agreement with the federal government.

We have long maintained as a territory that our communities shouldn't be treated differently than other Aboriginal communities in the country, and we should be able to benefit from that program. That would allow the RCMP to have more resources funded from the First Nations Policing Program applied to communities in the Northwest Territories. That has been a longstanding topic of discussion amongst all of the territories and our federal partner. We continue the work to see that expansion and are hopeful that we will find some success in that engagement and see additional resources applied to the RCMP that way. Thank you, Mr. Chair.
