Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, my question is to the Minister of Education, Culture and Employment, Mr. Dent. I am referring to his statement in the House yesterday regarding students' success. In particular, I would like to talk about the grade extension policy. I note that the Minister has advised the House that the number of communities that have the ability to provide secondary education is at 90 percent. The Minister stated that students no longer have to leave the support of their families and communities to pursue secondary education.

Mr. Speaker, a number of students, who I am aware go for post-secondary education from a community such as Yellowknife, have a difficult time when they go to larger centres. They have a difficult time adapting to the numbers of people, the traffic and so forth. I am wondering if the Minister if having this policy of having as many high schools as possible in communities is not creating a bottleneck for students who will achieve high school education? Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
