Mr. Speaker, I would like to welcome back my colleague Mr. Steen. Let me assure Mr. Steen, publicly, and the community of Tuktoyaktuk, that it is not our intention to sell the houses from underneath the tenants that are in them, it is our intention to provide options to our staff with respect to staff housing. We have to ensure it is affordable, as Mr. Steen rightly points out, and I want to assure him that steps will be taken, and steps are being taken now to ensure that housing for teachers and others, I remind everybody, will be available and I will look into this particular matter with respect to Tuktoyaktuk later on today when I meet with Mr. Steen to give him the comfort he requires. That his constituency will be taken care of and the teachers that are looking after his children and his neighbours children are provided with staff housing at an affordable cost. Thank you.
