Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, we do look in regards to the type of housing that the community would like. We also look at our statistics of where the needs are. There's the family dwellings, one bungalow or two-bedroom, three-bedroom or four-bedroom. What we're finding in a lot of communities is that people are asking for three or four-bedroom units because there are no units for families with more than three or four kids. I think we have to realize that we have to sit down with communities and see exactly which type of housing they need in the communities, but also look at our surveys that we do to make sure that we are meeting the areas where the need is. Lately the need was with seniors and single families. I think that was where a lot of our housing was built. So we do look at it in the context of the surveys we do, we talk to communities on exactly what type of housing they want and also work with the community to see exactly who do they want to serve, the singles, the seniors or the families in those communities. Thank you.
