Thank you, Mr. Chair. That is a good point. Actually, it was the Minister who started listing off the menu of what you might like more than my remand facility in Hay River, so that is how we got off on that little tangent. I guess, Mr. Chair, when there is will and direction in this House, things happen, money gets invested, money gets reinstated, and new initiatives are backed and supported. I know that when there was an $850,000 investment back in early childhood development, how did that happen? The Minister said he could do it and see the support of the House, so I guess I will wait...

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I want to ask the Minister, Mr. Chairman, if after we shift in the fiscal situation, as everyone knows the way our system works, the business plans come out in the fall and there is quite a bit of time between then and when the budget session is held early in the year, if there was ever any thought given to putting any resources back into Justice as a result of new federal money which became apparent we would be receiving in the near future. Thank you.
