Thank you, Minister Cochrane. Mr. Simpson.

Thank you Mr. Simpson. Minister Cochrane.

Thank you, Mr. Thompson. Minister.

Thank you. I know the Minister has said they will review it, but will they make the changes is what we are getting at. It is good to review, but, if you are not going to make the changes, then there is no sense of reviewing it. If the Minister is willing to make changes, then that is good with me. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thank you, Ms. Haener. Mr. Simpson.

Thank you, Mr. Vanthuyne. Minister Cochrane.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. I have just a couple of questions on the language. I know that there is a lot of discussion on languages, and I know that the department is basically working with the land claim organizations to do language programs, but I think that we need to do more. Even though the organizations are doing the best that they can with the funding that they get, it is never enough funding.

I think we have a good opportunity here. In the last Assembly, I had the opportunity to travel with the Minister to Alaska. There is a great program that they have there with the Gwich'in language, and...

Well, that sounds promising. I am sure that the larger communities, like, for example, Fort McPherson or Aklavik, would be willing do that. There are a lot more people in the community and a bigger demand with elders and people that need these services. I know that it is a great benefit to the communities, and I look forward to that full-time position in the near future. Thank you very much.
