Thank you, Mr. Speaker. My question is directed to the Minister of MACA and it is concerning above-ground swimming pools. Many years ago the priority of this government was in the area of recreational activities. We had swimming pools and above-ground swimming pools, hockey arenas and such, justified by the fact recreational activity entails spiritual well being, mental and physical. I am not going to go beyond that. Gjoa Haven has wanted to have a swimming pool program during the summer, an above-ground swimming pool. The mayor of that community has talked to me about it and they are willing to put money into the program. The mayor and the council want to know if the Minister of MACA will supply the cost for freight from the point of departure to that community? Is there funding in that area? Thank you.
