Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I think that it makes tremendous good sense to have childcare centres in schools. It's something that I think in the long run we need to try and move towards. That said, I think Members around this table know that we are hard pressed even to live up to the requirements in our current capital plan. We have schools that have to be replaced because their foundations are in trouble. We have other capital programs that we can't deliver on. It's not a question of talking to the Minister responsible for Public Works. We need to find -- and it comes back to what I was saying to Mr. Ramsay -- we need to get resource revenue sharing. We need to get a share of the wealth that leaves our territory on a daily basis in order to have adequate funds to be able to make some of these wise choices ourselves. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
