Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, just along the same line of capital, maybe not specific to seniors, however, right now, there's a great capital project going on in Lutselk'e where they're completely renovating a school. It looks absolutely beautiful, by the way. And now it's time to renovate or retrofit the health centre or replace it, so there's an opportunity now, right at the heels of the project on the Lutselk'e Dene School being completed. I'd like to ask the Minister if he's prepared to start beginning discussions with government, and not necessarily the Housing Corporation but with the government, to ensure that we can do something very strategic in that community to transition from that one project at the school right to the health centre as soon as possible?

Mr. Speaker, I think, during the capital review last year, as well as the O&M review in January or February to March, I did indicate to the Member that we've basically done the work on the planning around the renovations around the Lutselk'e Health Centre, and we're hoping to submit those for consideration in our capital planning process. I certainly will take the Member's comments and share them with the Minister of Infrastructure and the Minister of Finance, but, as the Member knows, all projects are competing for the same capital dollars. We know it needs to get done. It's in the queue. We will do our best to make an argument to make it happen. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
