Thank you, Madam Chair. The funding for the Novel housing is funding that's above and beyond what the Housing Corporation would be eligible for through the regular CMHC programs. So this has no impact on the other money. We will still continue to apply through the regular programs.
Madam Chair, I might say that the federal government have indicated that they're going to be tabling, or unveiling, a new national housing strategy by next April. So it's hard to tell what the long-term impact is going to be on us, but I expect we'll get this money, plus we'll get our share of the other housing programs. So it should not affect us in any negative way.
The Minister of Housing and Minister of Finance are meeting soon with the Minister responsible for the CMHC, and, over the next couple of months, a lot of this will become much clearer.
With regard to the Bear River hydro, the work, up to now, has been largely pre-feasibility engineering and environment, just looking at the impacts, trying to get an assessment of the cost, the potential, and so on, and some general consultation with the community. The discussions with Imperial have been fairly general, but also we have made our case that this is important to us for economic reasons, as well as cost of living reasons. The Bear River hydro, of course, would not go anywhere without a large customer. The pipeline is a large customer. So as soon as we know that the Mackenzie Producers Group is going into public hearings, then we'll be turning up the heat, and certainly at that point getting into more detailed discussions. But right now, it's very general, very conceptual. Thank you.
