Thank you very much. Sorry to compare the two projects, but of course the Inuvik- Tuk Highway had a hard number, as well, and we’re having a hard time swallowing that one too. So I fully agree and think it’s fair that if we change the scope midway through where circumstances beyond control gives us the chance, but again, those are things

we’ll have to deal with, or

somebody will have to deal with as time goes on.

The only thing I want to say is I want to reiterate the two comments I made at the very beginning of the statement, which were the new building, I’m very glad with the process. I

t’s the one I wanted. I was

worried we would get a renovation while patients were trying to be served. I thought from the start it was impractical.

The last part I want to point out is that the old building will have a service life. It’s an iconic figure in this community and certainly the territory, and it would be a shame to see it bulldozed over, so I’m glad to hear that it will have a life beyond the opening of the new hospital, a life that doesn’t carry any risk on the GNWT.

My understanding is Minister Miltenberger may have had a role in playing that no risk part in, so if he did, I hope he’s still here as an MLA serving in 30 years to evaluate the contract to see if it worked out. I have no doubt he’ll be here in another 30 years if given the chance, assuming his wife lets

him. Of course, that probably means Mrs. Groenewegen will be wanting to keep running too.

In all seriousness, the new building is excellent news. The old building risk taken off is fantastic.
