Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I ask the Minister of the Housing Corporation to picture himself as a young couple from Fort Resolution that are just starting out in life, they have just been married for a couple years, they have lived in public housing for a couple of years, they have just had a child and they turn to the Housing Corporation. They turn to the Housing Corporation for advice and also for assistance to buy a home. They do not know a lot about carpentry, plumbing or electrical, but they do know that they can afford to own their own home and pay the rent or pay the mortgage. When they turn to the Housing Corporation they do put their trust in the Housing Corporation to assist them. Is the Minister willing to develop a program or a policy to ensure that the people that assist this young couple from Fort Resolution to buy a home will also assist them to let them know whether they are buying a sound home or not, not only to protect the young couple's investment, but to protect the Housing Corporation's investment. Thank you.
