Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I understand the process in terms of the requests for the numbers in the schools, but again there is a situation in my community. The classes are crowded and there just isn't enough space. Also the fact that I mentioned earlier at some of our meetings that the younger kids have a tendency to see what's going on. Inuvik is a good example in terms of the high school. They have SAMS and they have Samuel Hearne. They are divided from grades 1 to 7 and grades 8 to 12. It's a good example of what the younger students can see what's happening with the older students. Having said that, in my community of Tuktoyaktuk, this is what they are requesting. This is one of the problems they are encountering and issues they raised with me. I would just like to bring that forward, Mr. Chairman.
