Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I certainly do acknowledge that the community has been willing to defer certain pieces of mobile equipment that are presently planned. I should point out to the honourable Member that
the deferrals, as I understand it, will not come close to meeting the two million dollar arena cost. However, the Member's question is: Will I consider advancing the arena? I will make this commitment: I will be quite willing to work with the Member and the community to see what can be done within the existing constraints that we all have to live with, to move this project ahead. I think the best way is to sit down with the council and talk about the options, talk about the moneys that are still owing to this government, and work out a plan. I would be quite willing to do that, Mr. Speaker.
