Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I am not sure how it was established or under what conditions, but the way it works is that the boards in Yellowknife raise funding through local taxation. Their funding from this government is at 75 percent for the K to 9 program and 100 percent for the 10 to 12 program, which works out to an average of about 80 percent, Mr. Chair, for funding. That funding comes from the taxpayers of Yellowknife. Thank you.
