Thank you, Mr. Chair. I have a couple of comments about this session. In your opening comments, you mentioned there was $5.6 million in forced growth, and that goes to increases in territorial police services agreement. One thing I'd love to see, and I know we are talking a lot about moving towards land claims and moving and implementing those agreements with our Indigenous governments. At some point down the road, I would love to see, to do what other jurisdictions like they do in Alberta. There are some reserves that police their own, like the Blood Tribe Police Services. They hire their own people, and they get funding. They thoroughly vet them, and they do that. At some point, I would love to see some of this instead of going to the RCMP, going to our own people. I think at some point, I'd love to see that.

I have a lot of respect for the RCMP. I've served them, but I think at some point down the road, we're going to finalize some of our agreements here. I'd love to see the Akaitcho hire their own, or the Dehcho, and have their own people enforce their own laws. Dene laws along with our own laws. That's what I would love to see somewhere down the road, and start having those conversations, and moving away from this colonial way of doing business. I'd just thought I'd make that opening comment. I'll leave that with that.

I did have a question with integrated case management, ICM. I notice here it's mainly for Yellowknife and it affects my constituents of Ndilo and Detah.
