Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Just so that the honourable Members here realize that new campus and classroom space was provided in Iqaluit. The issue that is being addressed here is program and administration needs.
That is why we are trying to address the actual needs with the review this particular year, because what we're finding is that we have more students that the original classrooms that were transferred. If the honourable Member has forgotten since his tenure as Minister, there are only basically three classrooms in the gymnasium area and, basically, I believe, about three classrooms in the administration building. Because of that, the unfortunate situation is that we cannot expand the programs. So what we're looking at is the renovation of those particular buildings to provide additional classroom space and the possibility of not building new space but, in fact, renovating and utilizing Grollier Hall as part of that expansion.
There are a number of considerations, and I think the honourable Member is correct in raising the issue on student housing. But that, in itself, is an additional issue that is going to be addressed once we've come to a conclusion on reviewing the plan that has been provided to us for student housing. So that's generally what is occurring right now.
On the other point that the honourable Member has raised, I have been made aware, as the Member knows, from my recent trip to Iqaluit. So we'll try to address the concerns that he's raised but, again, we have to do it, I think, on a collective basis, rather than just one campus versus another. This is a situation where we don't have enough program space for the students today.
