It is. It's so easy to slip back. In three months the financial aspect of having a full-time job in a remote site kicks in. Everything is provided for the employee, and after three months the family gets used to having new boots, new coats, and being off social assistance and having their own money. They enjoy financial independence, and it's important to provide those supports for that period of time. Once they're financially independent and the family is used to their mom or dad, or both, going to work in a remote site, everything kicks in. We do have husband-and-wife teams from first nation communities working at our sites.
