Thank you, Mr. Speaker. My question is for the Minister responsible for Housing. It is in relation to the homeless in the Northwest Territories. Mr. Speaker, earlier I had asked the Minister a question and he referred me to the Minister responsible for Income Support. While I appreciate that, my question is not for that particular Minister. The Minister in charge of housing is in charge of social housing and providing housing for the homeless is certainly social housing in my estimation, perhaps not in the traditional sense. So, what I would like to know is, whether the Minister responsible for Housing would be willing to look at some type of a cost-shared program with the Minister responsible for ECE so that we can provide what the Minister of ECE termed as flop houses. Thank you.
