Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Again, I will state that that is a very bold move away from our policies in this government because we are really shunning our northern contractors and people who have worked hard to build a relationship with the Housing Corporation to do things in communities, and there is no doubt that there will come a time where we will be depending on those same contractors to come in and do work for the Housing Corporation because there are issues that could have been looked at as far as working with our northern partners to see what options they had to offer. Did the Housing Corporation do that? Has this been addressed with the construction industry as far as the situation you are in and you want it as cheap as possible, the type of unit you wanted and what could be done? Was there any kind of a survey done? Thank you, Madam Chair.
