Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I want to resume my line of questioning I had yesterday, and I was certainly not satisfied with the Minister's response when I asked about the swimming pools in the communities being included as part of the capital program. In his response, he stated that it was not in the capital program and that, in fact, curling rinks were low priority. When I look at the capital plan and I see recreation projects, such as a curling rink for Aklavik that was not in the capital plan over the last five years, is now scheduled to be constructed next year, that indicates to me that it is in fact a priority. It has been put in, included and fast-tracked, so in one year it has come up for construction. Lutselk'e is getting an arena and the Hay River Reserve is scheduled for an arena, so I do not understand what he means by capital projects not being a priority any more. MACA has also provided $300,000 to Fort Liard to use towards a swimming pool.

To me, that indicates there has been a change in policy and that is what I am trying to get from the Minister; if there is in fact a change in policy. If the policy allows a community to change their preference from accepting an arena or a curling rink to a swimming pool, then I would assume that a swimming pool is an acceptable item under the capital plan.

I want to know from the Minister, if he can tell me in simple terms whether or not swimming pools are now allowable as part of the capital plan, as an item in the capital plan.
