Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, my question is for the Minister of Education and I have to note that he looks quite dapper over there with that wonderful shirt on. Yesterday, Mr. Miltenberger had one on - there was no uproar like the day I wore mine. That tells me something, I guess.
This past month a crisis was averted when we were able to extend leases for the current school year for student housing in Iqaluit. I congratulate the Finance Minister, Mr. Todd, and Education Minister, Mr. Dent, for their expedient reaction to the dilemma we found ourselves in.
Mr. Speaker, this was a short-term, stop-gap solution. Can the minister inform this House, the people of the NWT, because there are other areas affected by this, what is being planned to ensure suitable and long-term housing for these Arctic College students? Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
