Mr. Speaker, this situation is in most of the communities in the NWT. We do have exact numbers but I do not have them available with me. Those numbers will be confirmed again, probably increased when we release the new survey that has been ongoing for the last little while. There are a few pockets of exception. Parts of Yellowknife and Hay River and some of Fort Smith do have some surplus houses in certain areas of the market. There is a severe shortage for housing for people with very low incomes.
