Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, I'm not sure that you can say it outweighs the regional balance. I am responding to direction provided by the board of governors. The board of governors are representative of the population of Nunavut, and they determined that they should make this recommendation based on public consultation which took place across Nunavut. So they heard in a lot of communities that regional balance for base-funded programming was seen as an important step in strengthening Nunavut Arctic College and making sure that it was seen as an institution that was supported throughout Nunavut much more equitably than was thought to be the case at that time.
