Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, as I stated in my Member's statement, the Aurora campus facility is due for replacement and there have been ongoing discussions in the community and with this government as well in trying to ensure that the student residence will be built along with this facility.
Many of the community members, Mr. Speaker, feel that building a new facility without the student residence is in fact giving us less than what we have right now and that is not acceptable.
I would like to know from the Minister, what is he doing to deal with this situation, knowing that this government in 1997 did a study and reported that a number of options were looked at, and the cost of a new facility replacement ranged from $13 million to $16 million? That was back in 1997. I would like to know what the Minister is doing to address the situation of student residences. Thank you.
