Thank you, and I will amend what I said. Those officers are dedicated to those communities, but they are not stationed in those communities. As the Member points out, they don't have detachments. Like I said, we've added a number of positions. We're always working with the RCMP to enhance their ability to do their job, and we will continue to do that. We are exploring options through the First Nation and Inuit Policing Program with the federal government. So we recognize these concerns, and we are looking at ways to address them. There's also, you know, other ways to address some of these issues as well. Community safety officers are one option that we recently gotten into and perhaps that's a path forward to either, you know, put resources in communities where there are none or free up resources from other communities so we can distribute them other ways. So we are always looking at this. Thank you
