Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, I believe that our student teacher ratio is among the highest in Canada. It may be the highest; it is difficult to tell. We are at 17.4:1 officially in this school year. Last year Alberta was at 17.9:1 but I am aware that they have added money back into their programs and I am not quite sure yet whether that has brought them back down so that they would be below us or just slightly above us. In any case, Mr. Speaker, the Northwest Territories will have the highest or very close to the highest student teacher ratio in Canada. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
