I appreciate that.

You had also mentioned that, on the flip side, there are some previously isolated communities and that because of mining, because of cruise ships, and because of an outside economy there are transient populations that are now moving into these areas. Obviously, that puts some of the women and girls in more vulnerable situations.

Can you tell us, perhaps, if there are any things we can do to ensure the safety of women and girls in these communities where you might have a large influx of people who are coming from outside of the community?
