Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, the housing market in Yellowknife is very vibrant and alive. Some would say overheated. So I am aware of that issue. I am aware of the issue of Inuvik. I am aware of the issue in smaller communities where it's nurses and sometimes social workers and other health professionals that have to live in those communities and pay their rents. I have been encouraging authorities to look at creative options. There are business opportunities that exist here and in other communities and there are opportunities through foundations or online operations to put housing on the market that would be affordable and that would assist in this particular area, the key point being that the territorial government is not itself getting back into the housing market. Thank you.
