I think they play a very important role. They support a whole series of community organizations, which in some cases play a critical role not only in the active support of the existing community, but in bringing people back to those communities.
I'm thinking of the community organization for anglophones in the Magdalen Islands, for example. By working with some of the French-language community organizations, they have created sufficient vitality, energy, and economic activity that they've attracted young people who have gone away to university to come back to the islands. I found the same thing in the Gaspé, where people who had gone away to post-secondary institutions, and in some cases to the armed forces, were reaching a stage in their lives where they wanted to raise their children, so they moved back home. That decision was influenced significantly by the community vitality and the organizations that are being supported by these programs.
