Thank you very much, Mr. Chair. Mr. Chair, we have -- I don't think it's a secret to anybody in this room that we have quite a huge need when it comes to infrastructure across the Northwest Territories and across every single department. A lot of our infrastructure in the territory was built around the same timeframe, and so a lot of it ends up coming due around the same timeframe. And so the demands on our dollars for infrastructure are quite large and traditionally education facilities, be it our JK to 12 education facilities, are the responsibility of the provincial or territorial government. That said, there are pots that provinces and territories can dip into for post-secondary institutions. And so in order to maximize the amount of dollars that we have to spend on our education facilities, it makes the most sense for us to do our best and due diligence to try to invest our dollars in our JK to 12 and see what other dollars we can attract to the territory from the federal government for -- is there anything you want to add to that one?
