Thank you, Mr. Speaker. It's important that we talk apples to apples. The Member says we have some schools with very small percentages. Sure, we have a school that has a 32 percent occupancy rate. That's a one-room school. So it has one classroom that is sized for 22 and it holds seven students. We can't make it any smaller than that.

In this community, we have the equivalent of almost two schools that could be freed up. So there is a big difference in that situation. Mr. Speaker we are interested in the best solution for kids. We want to put money into the classroom, into the teachers, into the programming and not into bricks and mortar. Thank you.
