(Translation) Thank you, Mr. Speaker. My question is directed to the Minister of Finance. Non-Aboriginal teachers who are working up North will probably continue to come up here to teach. Usually, teachers come up to the communities for 2 or 3 year terms, not long enough to make it financially sound to purchase the house many of them are currently living in. With the government housing sales currently going on, and teachers are not interested in buying the housing they live in, how does the government plan to ensure they continue to have professional teachers in the communities, when housing is no longer available? Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
