That's the plan. Increasing the supports for research is part of what we're doing as we transform to a polytechnic university. In October, we released the initial areas of specialization, and as the Member stated that included earth, resources, and environment management as one of the areas. Climate change fits in that perfectly. I was pleased to hear that the college is in the process of hiring a research chair in climate change which will be located in Inuvik. I am also happy to report that Education, Culture and Employment is hiring a climate change archeologist to be centred in Inuvik. Those are some of the things that we are doing, so we are making steps. It's not something that I can say, "We're going to do this in the future." We're doing this now.
