Thank you, Mr. Chair. And I've said that many times that we're not going to build a new headquarters, we have one, so why bother. However, I will say that we obviously need infrastructure in all the communities. In Yellowknife, you wouldn't know there was a university -- there was a college here. You know, it's -- you kind of have to know where it is to know that it even exists. And we have a real housing -- there's a real housing shortage here as well, and so we need to ensure that there's adequate facilities here. Of course, as the Member points out, Breynat Hall is one of our priorities for replacing and it's one of the -- you know, the big infrastructure projects that we have identified as being at the top of the list.
You know, in terms of the courses for the different campuses, you know, I hear many times that we need every program in every community and to some extent we do need to make education more accessible. We need it at people's doorsteps. But the Member's correct, we can't split every program between every campus and every campus is going to have to have its specialties. And we have to ensure that they are -- they are robust in their own rights.
And yeah, I will also commend the staff of the college. You know, early on, a lot of the planning was done by the GNWT for the transformation but the bulk of the work has now been taken over by the college, and college staff are driving the transformation and they are responsible now for the transformation. And you know, I know there's some really passionate committed people who are doing that work on top of the other work that they would normally be doing at the college. So this is above and beyond what they're doing. So I did make a trip to Fort Smith and unfortunately it was -- no one was working, it was the break. But I will be back at some point to speak to staff there. And I know that the president, even he conveyed that message to them as well, about their importance and the priorities we have. So thank you.
