Yeah, thank you, Madam Chair. No, just in regards to page 198 in regards to program detail child and family services. I do have issues with that in regards to, I guess, I think that the department should be looking at Madam Minister in regards to how do we give our children back to the parents once they're taken into custody? Like, a plan to work with the family instead of them being taken away and the next thing you know they're in long-term care for -- until their 18 years old and then they're forgot about. You know, they're put back out in the public and all the care that they put into them, you know, we failed them that way, that one year of grace in that 18-time period. And I think that we should be really looking at that. But is there a plan in place or to work with the local community governments -- or not local community governments but the Inuvialuit Regional Corporation or the Gwich'in Tribal Council for our youth that's been taken into custody through the social system, and is there a plan to work them back into the community? Thank you, Madam Chair.
