Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, my questions are for the Minister of Education, Culture and Employment, and they have to do with the issue of day care, as well. Mr. Speaker, we have invested
millions of dollars in the college in Fort Smith; we've invested millions of dollars in capital in the student residences there, and wouldn't it be a shame now if childcare became the obstacle to northern students accessing the college programs for their educational needs? Mr. Speaker, there's a lot of post-secondary education institutions out there, and I don't think we can be turning any students away. I don't think we can be sending them down to Alberta or British Columbia or other places to get their education, after we've invested this kind of money. We want to keep them here in the North. So surely, given already how much we're in for in our college program, we could do something creative in terms of the needs. A lot of students are young people. A lot of them have young families. That is a trend and that is a given in this day and age. They are not all single people.
Mr. Speaker, what I'd like to know is, is there any space in the college where our government could possibly consider giving the students that added benefit of day care service on site, on campus? Thank you.
