Thank you, Mr. Chairman. The HAP program, if it is expanded and the criteria is changed, there is a large portion of people living in public housing who could be eligible for that and they could afford it. We are not going to shove home ownership down the throats of people that cannot afford it Let me assure the Member that I would like to build a vast majority of HAP units, because you do get the best bang for your dollar, but I understand that we need some social housing, so I will ensure that need is met as well.
The rent subsidy program, where private business, development corporations or community corporations build houses, and we rent them for 20 years, is a very straightforward program. It has been used in the major communities. It will be expanded. I have already given direction for it to be expanded. This year instead of a proposal call for build/supply/ship/erect, I am going to go rent supp in Iqaluit, Hay River, Fort Smith, Inuvik and Fort Simpson. I have expanded it already, and I will continue to expand it into any community we can, because you got to build more units that way as well. Those are units that are subsidized by the NWT Housing Corporation so that they meet the social housing needs. Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
