Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Utilization may not have anything to do with the need for a renovation of a facility. We have some schools in the Northwest Territories that are relatively new that are in very bad condition. We have others that are even older than the old St. Pat's that are still in use and have not been significantly renovated since they were built. It is difficult to explain exactly why one might be done in one year and one not in another. The utilization rate may not be relevant when it comes to talking about renovations to a school. There could be a technical problem. There could be a problem that has developed since the construction and perhaps it was a poorly-built school in the first place. That is always a possibility.
