Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I appreciate the Member's concerns about the site that we've been looking at. He has, on the floor of this House, I think at least on one other occasion some months back, raised his concerns about the site, particularly that it was in the flight path. When we looked at options and land that was available to us, this site seemed to make a lot of sense and it was nicely situated close to Fred Henne Park on the shore of Long Lake; it looked like a very good place. We knew we'd have to do some work on the site, but we sat down to do some consultation with some of the potential stakeholders and have run into some difficulties; some concerns have been raised. So we're now at the point where we're going to look at some alternative sites as well, and it will be up for the next government to decide what the best site to move forward on is. There's no doubt, though, that we need adequate RV space in this city and if this isn't the site, then we have to sit down and get serious about finding a site soon. Thank you.
