Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, in follow-up to my Member's statement today, I am also following with great interest the subject of the Novel housing initiative and this project. I am pleased to hear that the government would understand the interests of a company that has taken it upon themselves to go out and spend a fair amount of money investing in the design and the creation of something such as these conversion units that we've seen and wouldn't then turn around and take all the information that this company generated through their own efforts and then try to shop it around to other companies. Something would seem rather unethical about that approach to doing this. I do think that ATCO is a very reputable company. I think they started off in 1947 with the construction of one trailer. They're recognized internationally as being good at this, and they want to do business with northern participation. Mr. Speaker, I want to see the Novel thing succeed; I want to see the houses make it to the communities. In that regard, I would like to ask whichever Minister wants to answer this, I guess. First of all, there's 1,400 units. How many of those units does the Government of the Northwest Territories, through the Housing Corporation and their programs, think that they can absorb of the 1,400? Thank you.
