Thank you, Mr. Speaker. And thank you to the Minister for that response. Mr. Speaker, one of the things I absolutely adore in the summer is seeing kids that I once knew as tiny little children in our community come back as university students and work in -- in even this building here. And it's great to get to see them gain valuable experience for what they're studying at school and what they might want to do when they come home. Unfortunately, this is an honour that is often reserved for either people living in regional centres or Yellowknife itself and that my colleagues from small communities don't have the same -- the same pleasure of seeing students from around the community come home and work for the GNWT. The GNWT does have a program called building capacity in Indigenous governments, and I'm wondering if there is a portion of that funding that is available to summer students so that summer -- or sorry -- the GNWT can work alongside Indigenous governments to provide summer employment in NWT's small communities for our post-secondary students. Thank you.
