Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I think it well known that there is a severe and growing shortage of housing in all parts of the NWT, particularly severe in a place like Iqaluit, the Member's constituency, which is growing at a very fast pace. Although there are houses being built, they are in no way keeping up with the demand. We recently have been working with the district office and the local housing authority to try to look at options on how that can be dealt with. What it really comes down to is resources, and there is a limited amount of resources but we continue to try to find options on how to deal with the shortage of housing. Thank you.
