Mahsi, Madam Speaker. Madam Speaker, I'm concerned about the smaller communities of Jean Marie River, Nahanni Butte and Trout Lake. These communities have, in the past few years, had a number of houses that have cost quite a bit of money to build in the communities, as well as community infrastructure such as band offices, community centres, schools, health centres and so forth. My concern is with regard to fire protection; specifically insurance on these houses and these units. Last summer, a HAP unit in Jean Marie River burned right down to the ground. The fire equipment there was useless, and I've addressed that with the Minister of MACA already. But I would like to direct my question to the Minister of Housing. During the construction of homes in communities, or renovations of homes in the communities as directed by the NWT Housing Corporation, are these units that are under construction insured? Thank you.
