Mr. Chairman, I guess that requires a bit of clarification. I understood the needs assessment -- I don't take it as being hypothetical -- is trying to find out from the communities: what the real needs are; what the costs are; whether they want to have the improved health facilities in the community; what would be the need in terms of birthing, surgery and X-rays; and, what are the most common illnesses in the communities. I don't think my question was a hypothetical one because everything is open to those kinds of questions when you are doing the community assessment. That was my base for the question. What would happen if the communities decide what they really want is better health centres in the communities rather than a big one in Rankin Inlet.
