Thank you, Mr. Chair. I would like to see if the Minister could offer some similar information. Some of the principal indicators on the social services side of the mandate have to do with income support. Perhaps it is too early to ask about housing. Again, in terms of where the income support service is vested or mandated in the department, it has a frontline responsibility. Are there some indicators, for instance, like the number of families or individuals in crisis that are core housing need? The levels of demand, Mr. Chair, say in emergency shelters, this kind of thing. I guess I'm looking for things that would indicate, if you will, the social health of our society, or at least to the areas where this department is involved in a level of social caregiving. Can the Minister give us some broad indicators there? Thank you.
