Thank you, Mr. Speaker. No, I do not know why people making high incomes live in public housing. But, some of the reasons people have said are that the Housing Corporation in the past haven't had adequate programs to address their needs so we've changed all the programs in the last few years so they do meet high-income earners' needs. Also, it doesn't pay to own your own home if you can get subsidized public housing because you can get it a lot cheaper. Thank you.
