Mr. Speaker, the communities in the Member's constituency, as well as all other communities, are participating in the housing needs survey that we are doing at this very moment. Early indications are that we have an immediate need for over 3,500 new units, just to address today's needs. As the Finance Minister said in his address to the House, we have nowhere near that amount of funding. We are doing what we can to understand and to find out exactly where the needs are. Then we will use what little funding we have to address those.
