Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I am not too sure what the Minister's definition of homeless is, but I understand that in order to be eligible to get into a homeless shelter here in Yellowknife, you have to get on the income support list. In order to get on the income support list, you have to wait two months before you can get on it after arriving in Yellowknife. This is our capital. This is where anybody in the Northwest Territories should feel at home.
Yet the stringent guidelines they have put in place restricts the homeless who need a place to stay when they arrive here. They should not have to wait two months on the street in order to get into a shelter.
I would like to ask the Minister what he is doing to ensure the policies of this government dictate the needs of those who need shelter? Thank you.
