Thank you, Madam Chair. Just in regard to bringing it up, I'd like to thank my colleague from Yellowknife, here, who brought up Mangilaluk School. The target date, working with COVID-19, our communities are suffering with no employment, nothing going on. I really think this is a shovel-ready project, and I think this should be brought to FMB to get the extraordinary funds that are needed to work with the proponent to get this contract started this year. From what I've been told, the gap for funds, they're a little bit stretched, but with everything that's been going on with shovel-ready projects, the federal government stepping in to help assist us in regard to these projects, when does the Minister think that a target date? This school has been in the books since 2007, because I was the one who brought it up in this House. You have 35-plus staff who use one bathroom. That's unsanitary. It's almost like having a honey bucket. So I think they have to really work with the proponent. I want a target date, and I really am pushing that we need this project to go. Thank you, Madam Chair, and a target date from the Minister. Thank you.
