Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, we have to realize that we have to be fair to all tenants. We can't have a loophole for one group of tenants. You were evicted for a reason. There is a reason that you got kicked out of housing. In order to get back into public housing, you can't skip the queue by jumping in front of the line. We have people on waiting lists who want to get into public housing who are in just as much need as the person who got kicked out. If you didn't have a problem the first time, you wouldn't have been evicted. There is a way to get people back into social housing or public housing and that is to pay off those arrears and then they will be put back on the list. Then they will have the opportunity to get back into public housing.
