Mr. Speaker, every day we hear in this House about the shortage of housing in our communities -- shortage of this, shortage of that. I do not think the Minister has recognized this in the development of these plans. How can you hire people from other communities when you cannot house them? How can you hire people and maximize employment when there is no economic development to hire people and maximize employment in the communities, of people from the communities or people from outside the communities? I say again that it has not been well thought out. I think this is a very good employment strategy for various communities, but not for small aboriginal communities in the Northwest Territories. Mr. Speaker, that is a statement and not a question.
