Thank you.

I'd like to put my next question to both sets of witnesses.

I've read about child soldiers in the work General Roméo Dallaire has done, and reintegrating these children is not always easy. They have literally been indoctrinated into a different way of life and a different way of thinking.

I'm just wondering. I know that only 300 kids have been returned from camps thus far, but should there be some thought about some kind of financial support and programs in place to support these kids when they first come back?
