Thank you, Mr. Chairman. The total price tag is $15 million.
Is that $15.440 million?

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I’d refer that question to Minister Michael McLeod. Thank you.
Thank you, Minister Miltenberger. Minister Michael McLeod.
Mr. Chairman, I believe the final price was a little over $7 million.
Mr. Krutko.
A little over $7 million? Are you talking $7.5 million or are you talking $7.2 million? What exactly was the price for this project?
Thank you, Mr. Krutko. Minister Miltenberger.
Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I’ll commit to get the Member the specific figure, including the $154,000 that’s lapsed. Thank you.
My understanding is that the project was originally priced at $7 million, which was supposed to be $2.5 million in regard to the federal stimulus money and also the $2.5 million was supposed to come from the City of Yellowknife, but now they are saying it is over the $7 million price tag. I would just like to know exactly how much over. Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Menicoche. Minister Miltenberger.
Mr. Chairman, once again I will commit to get the information for the Member.
Mr. Chairman, I am hoping that it is to finish off the flooring at the Nahanni Butte gymnasium. I don’t know if he can answer that quickly at all. Thank you.
Mr. Chairman, I will refer that one to Minister Robert C. McLeod.
Thank you, Minister Miltenberger. Minister Robert C. McLeod.
Thank you, Mr. Chairman. The $67,000 is for funding to rectify outstanding deficiencies, so any deficiencies would be taken care of with the $67,000. Thank you.
Thank you very much. Perhaps we have to pursue it further tomorrow. I just wanted to get details on the completion of the floor for the Nahanni Butte gymnasium, but if they don’t have that, I can ask that in the House tomorrow. Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
