Mr. Chairman, I am going to be very direct with the honourable Member. There has just been a motion passed by this committee that standards and criteria established by the government should be respected and not varied. Sanikiluaq has a community gym. It was incorporated into the school. Sanikiluaq will have an arena in 1994-95. There is money to start that project in the capital estimates before us. They would be, I am told, under our standards, eligible for a curling rink once the arena is built, but I would not want the honourable Member to think that the community is entitled to any additional recreation facilities or a recreation complex once the gym and arena are completed. That is the recreation facilities that they are entitled to, apart from the curling rink. We are doing pretty well in Sanikiluaq according to the standards that are applied in every other community. Thank you.
