Thank you, Madam Chair. I am really happy to see the way this is being done in collaboration with Indigenous governments. I do not want to see what happened with the implementation of junior kindergarten, where it almost felt like we were pegging Aboriginal Head Start against junior kindergarten. Also, within the Healthy Family Program, I am happy to see that there is going to be a made-in-the-North program. In my previous career as a nurse, this program, when I was working in Yellowknife, the families that I was working with, it was a good program, but I think as it started to leave Yellowknife and the capacity in to the communities, that it did not hold that same structure and maybe it was the way that it was being taught or not taught. So one of things that I know is the Hotii ts'eeda researched on that whole program, so I would like to know if that is the model going from the research that was done by Hotii ts'eeda, which is the SPOR unit for the NWT, scientific patient-oriented research. They funded that Healthy Family Program review. Do you know if that is coming from that?
