Thank you, Mr. Chair. The criteria for the contribution, if that is the question, that a community would make to a particular project as described in our municipal capital assistance policy. I have it handy here somewhere, if I could just have a minute. In the case of Inuvik, using it as an example, Inuvik is now covered by a block funding agreement. In the case of Inuvik, it has a block of funding which it can choose to allocate some or all of the contribution it receives to a community centre project, if that is what they choose to do. Had that agreement not been in place, Inuvik would have been considered a most ability to contribute community. Its contribution to a project would be based on a formula as follows: for the first $100,000 for the project, they would contribute 30 percent of the cost. For the next $900,000 of the project, they would contribute 20 percent of the cost and for anything over a million dollars, its contribution would be 10 percent of the cost. Those costs would be calculated based on a Yellowknife based cost that would be determined for the particular project. An office building would be considered a basic project and then those would be the contributions it would make. If the project was an additional project, which is another category of projects under the policy, its contribution would be greater. Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
