Thank you. Thank you for the information and for the changes the department have made especially regarding with the disability. That's good because a lot of -- in my region, some express concerns and frustrations about some of the programs that they were -- that they're using. And I know it's not just others, but there are organizations, a lot of them did say that some of the income support clients, they don't -- you know, they don't want to go to work because it's so easy and that they will be penalized if they're working even to attend some other programs. But I know in my region, Tlicho government and friendship centre, they're doing their best. I know that they're working really hard, working with many of these -- with many of the clients and I think it's -- you know, it's good, it's positive, but we need more for other regions of how we can get some of these young people off the system and to become productive, you know, citizens within our society. I think that's what -- it would be nice if, you know, the department can be working with the Indigenous government or organizations to see what they need or how they can accommodate them, you know. And, yeah, so that's all I have to say is just that I would like to see a good working relationship with the ECE and the organizations in our regions to get our young people off the income support assistance program. Thank you.
