Mr. Speaker, I am sure after 15 months the hon. member knows this. Most of the social programs we do on First Nations are not based on Statistics Canada figures. When we build a school, we go in there and count the number of students, whether it is an elementary school or a high school in some cases. Or, the Minister of Health will go in there with Operation Head Start. If it is a health facility the same applies.
The only time we use statistics is when we fund tribal councils but we do not use those of Statistics Canada. Again we go in and count the numbers on site. This is the way it is done. The Statistics Canada figures are a tool that I use to check what we are doing, but no more or no less than a tool.
