Thank you, Mr. Speaker. The issue of the government support for the YWCA and the Northern United Place is one that has been ongoing for quite a long time. I am aware that all of the Yellowknife MLAs have had input in the work that has gone on to try to solve some of the problems over the last few months. I do not have the exact numbers, but originally the YWCA was subsidized by the government through the Housing Corporation to the tune of about $320,000. We have made different arrangements where, rather than subsidize them directly with money, we now instead, give them access to an apartment building at no cost.
