Thank you, Mr. Testart. Minister Abernethy.
Thank you, Mr. Chair. I just want to see if there's some common ground and understanding from previous experience, if we can maximize both departments and both funding initiatives here towards that, if there would be an openness and a willingness by this department. Taking a lead on a pilot, we have some discussions on concerned individuals or individuals interested in providing that service in Tulita and Fort Good Hope. I welcome the information and I'll share that with my constituents to see if they want to develop a proposal to access this funding source. Thank you.
Thank you, Mr. Thompson. Minister Abernethy.

Thank you, Ms. Green. Minister Abernethy.
Thank you, Mr. Simpson. Minister Abernethy.
Thanks to the Premier for that reply. On the issue of resiliency, my third question: we know that the federal government is working on an Arctic policy framework to guide its decisions in the North. Can the Premier tell me how the GNWT is going to make sure that NWT priorities and economic interests are reflected in the Arctic policy framework?
Thank you, Mr. Chair. I'm going to rely on the Minister's previous experience in looking at, I'm referring to page 179 on the allowance there of $1.1 million for the On the Land Healing Fund. Has there been in previous years looking at the Department of Justice for reintegration of clients? Looking at this department, On the Land Healing Fund, there are some similarities for clients there. Has there ever been a cost-shared pilot On the Land Program by both departments for these similarity clients, if you want to refer to them as that? Thank you, Mr. Chair.
