Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, the initial intention we were looking at was looking at some form of conversion of workforce housing for housing in the Northwest Territories. Since then, we have dropped that. It is not part of the negotiations right now. It is seen as a business deal and the Mackenzie gas project has to go out and purchase workforce housing. We're hoping that as they're done with the workforce housing, we can then take that and convert it to housing for NWT residents. But as I stated earlier, the traditional type of workforce housing is not affordable to convert. So if we're going to use this concept, work has to be done upfront to incorporate some features that make these units applicable for residences in the Northwest Territories. Thank you
