Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, I was seeking clarity into the situation of why someone would receive $72,000. Is our goal as a Housing Corporation, is the government trying to make sure that they only pay a $200 a month mortgage? I don't know. Those are the kinds of questions that I was asking the Minister.
The program is based, if you read their web site, on a sliding scale. What is that sliding scale? A lot of the applicants that I have spoken to who have received money don't even know how much they are getting until the day the cheque is cut, at the end of the process. Mr. Speaker, what I am asking for is some clarity. We need some clear-cut charts; we need some graphs; we need some statistics; we need some openness, honesty and transparency on this.
By the way, five or six people out of these 14 people received over $50,000 in assistance from the Housing Corporation. Again, this is sort of out of touch and, like I stated, as my friend says, that ain't right.
Mr. Speaker, later today I will be asking for clarity; absolute clarity from the Minister responsible for the Housing Corporation. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
