Just one last item, on this subject anyway. One of the things I was wondering, and I do not have the statistics so I am not sure of this question, but a number of people who are working for the GNWT could be living in public housing in these communities, and I am wondering if there is some way that we could find a way to accelerate the employee home purchase program that Mr. Kakfwi was working on, and whether that would have any impact. Lot me use this situation in the Keewatin, if I may. I have a lady working for the government for the past seven or eight years in public health. There is some government housing that could be available for purchase. If she was prepared to purchase that house, that would free up that one public health house. Now, I do not know if it warrants looking at. Maybe it is so small it has no impact, but you may want to take a look at trying to accelerate or expand the employee purchase program with the GNWT, as there may be some people there who may be prepared to do that. Thank you.
