Thank you, Mr. Speaker. The project went out to tender, and it wasn't just to put in a gym, it was to provide a bit of an expansion to the school to allow for the community to have high school courses offered in the community. When the bids came in, they were so much over budget that we couldn't proceed. There were some attempts to find ways to reduce the cost of the budget and they weren't successful. So at this point, MACA, ECE and the Department of Public Works are examining what the options might be. We remain committed to the project and we're looking for what we can do to ensure that it will proceed. Obviously, as the Member has pointed out, with us missing the winter road this year, the extension, which had been projected for the fall of 2008, will be delayed probably for one year.
