Thank you, Mr. Speaker. The Member did hit on an area that is one that does stand out. When we reviewed the numbers, there have been a number of communities that have accessed this program and it has definitely been accessed more heavily in the larger areas, for example, Yellowknife, Hay River, and to a certain degree, the community of Inuvik, have accessed this program more than the smaller communities. I do know that, again, as of the middle of March, the amount of funding or house sales in the Western Territory is around the $40 million figure, so it has generated a fair amount of spinoff from that investment. But, as I say, we are concerned that we will go over our limit and we will have to look at that because as we know in these fiscal times we have to be very careful with where we expend our money. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
