Thank you, Mr. Chairman. To the topic of schools and planning schools, especially in Yellowknife. Now that we are on the record, I would like to add another comment that is becoming more and more evident. I think the Minister has mentioned that he has heard from three school boards in the city that are anticipating new schools. I count four. Then I would add the Arctic College campus for many years, I think since its inception, there has been talk of a campus. I guess my suggestion there is because we are looking at so many different institutions, potential institutions at such a cost and such a large land quantum that I would like to suggest the department take a lead role in doing a city-wide, all-inclusive board survey of the city's needs, perhaps a 10 or 20-year period because I don't know that planning various schools on a one-off basis really serves the community in the best way. We seem now to have so many things coming to the table at the same time that more of a comprehensive review would serve us well. I will stop there if the Minister wants to make a comment; I have one other point I would like to ask, Mr. Chairman.
