Mr. Speaker, when we did the harmonization project, we wanted to ensure that there was a balance between the two income support programs and the Housing Corporation, the way the income is tested. It's income tested, so the individuals are at a certain level of income before an increase is applied, Mr. Speaker. That we checked with the standing committees before we introduced the programs and we do feel that we can move forward on this. A lot of people are going to be beneficiaries of this new particular program. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
