Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
I'm fascinated by all that the communities have managed to do with so little. It is incredible. We have come a long way in the field of education since gaining control over our school divisions.
Mr. Gauthier, you discussed the field of health care. When you look at the infrastructure which has been established over the last three years in this area, it is unbelievable. For instance, in Manitoba, people have to work on one sector at a time because they do not have the resources to do it all at the same time.
Where I come from, economic development happened over a ten-year period. Now, we can say that it is solid. It is unshakable. We have 30 employees and one permanent staff member.
We've heard that in the next plan we need to focus on the communications sector, which has always been somewhat neglected, and the cultural sector. We take culture for granted in a way and seem to think that it will never die. However, people in the cultural sector have told us they felt they had been somewhat brushed aside by the plan.
Would you agree that communications and culture are the next two sectors we should focus on? And could you tell us how economic development in Saskatchewan is fairing? Do you have a structure in place for community economic development, for instance?
