Brendan Bell Yellowknife South

Mr. Chairman, God help us if it were growing at any more than a small amount because when I look at the numbers, St. Patrick's High School appears to be actual utilization at 136 percent, St. Joe's at 105 percent in the city.

There are other schools in the Territories. In Tuktoyaktuk, for example, I understand they are approaching maximum capacity. I think that we have to do some planning in this area, especially given the bright picture the Finance Minister paints for the Territory. If we are looking at growth, I think we have to start addressing this.

I would like to ask the Minister what he is planning to do, specifically about St. Joseph's and St. Patrick's High in Yellowknife. Is he looking at building new facilities?
