Mahsi, Mr. Chair. That Western Arctic Leadership Program, we are in partnership with them as well. So we contribute on

an annual basis towards that particular program and they do have other partnerships that contribute to their leadership program as well. So we continuously support this area. Mahsi.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. I’m just wondering what the status is of the campus in Yellowknife in terms of a secured space. Do we know when our lease is up on the current space and longer term plans there? Thank you.
