Thank you, Mr. Chairman. First of all, I would like to thank the Housing Corporation staff, Mr. Murray, and in particular, the Minister, Mr. Arlooktoo, who are in support with the transference of Canada Mortgage and Housing units in my community, which includes the Coop housing units and the Aakuluk Day Care, and the support they have given us to keep the Aakuluk Day Care Building up and running. I would like to thank them for that help.
Recently I wrote to the Minister for the Housing Corporation about some concerns with the lack of social housing and new social housing units. I know we do not have any new money because of the federal cutbacks to build social housing units and the programs that we have come up with, like Plan 2000, which have been successful, still have not addressed the concern of new social housing units. Has the department looked at some way of facilitating new construction of social housing units or as outlined in the earlier letter I wrote to the Minister and the department? Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
