Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Mr. Chairman, I would like to ask the Minister one or two more questions on these housing units. I understand from the Minister that he intends to either sell these housing units or turn them over to the Housing Corporation if they cannot be sold. I would just like to point out to the Minister that, at this point in time, in Tuktoyaktuk for instance, there is a number of housing units already boarded up, waiting to be dismantled and hauled away. Now obviously, if these housing units cannot be sold, maybe the Minister would consider giving them away, but my point here is that the communities are already hard pressed for lots and I am sure that the community does not want any more empty, vacant, government buildings taking up lots and I think the Minister should take this into consideration when he suggests turning these units over to the Housing Corporation. Thank you.
