So the moneys that were identified for the group homes were taken from all the different regions. It was not specifically deleting from Baffin and then placing it in a different area in the same region. It was basically taken from all the other facilities.

I would like to ask Mr. Doyle, at what point in time did you decide to build a new facility in Iqaluit and delete all the other allocations?

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. This is not a new facility. This is an extension to the existing facility. The existing facility, as I mentioned earlier, was running over capacity for some period of time, and we were having to turn away a number of women who were having a great deal of difficulty in their home community, so it was last winter -- I think it was last winter. I would have to confirm the date, but I believe it was last winter.

Thanks, Mr. Doyle. Why was it not identified, then, last year, if the need was there a year ago?

This is a technical point. Unanimous consent was asked for once. It was denied. There has been no intervening business, so I have to deny the request. Third reading of bills. Item 21, Mr. Clerk, orders of the day.
