Thank you, Mr. Speaker. My question is to the Minister of Education, Culture and Employment, Mr. Dent. I believe Mr. Dent is in receipt of a letter sent to him and also to Mr. Todd and Mr. Arlooktoo from Range Lake school parent advisory group. They raise a number of interesting comments and requests in that regard to education funding. The main request from this parent advisory group could be applied to all classrooms and teachers in the NWT. Their main request is looking for additional funding to reduce the student/teacher numbers in the classroom. My question to the Minister is, what hope can the Minister of Education provide to the parents of children in the Northwest Territories that indeed, something can and will be done about reducing the student/teacher ratio in the classroom? Thank you.
