Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I am quoting from his answers to me on Return to Written Question 19-15(4). In the last question it says here that we...I am reading here because he did not answer my question.
"We estimate that Novel home delivery and conversions will begin in 2011 and be completed by 2014." So now we are looking at a three-year turnaround. It also states that, "We estimate delivering 460 to 470 per year." This is an entirely new figure. Prior to this, we had been talking about the Housing Corporation possibly delivering 100 units per year and I think everyone -- and I am asking a pretty valid question here -- understands the complexities involved in finding lots. It's not just about sending the workers out there and bulldozing down some flat lands so that trailers can go on it. Novel home, I am not supposed to call it a trailer.
There are lots of discussions from government to government to government and the relationships that have to happen. We also know about the recent example of the market housing initiative where the Housing Corporation has had difficulties delivering 24 units. If the Minister is indicating that he has had CMHC people look at it and community people look at it, can we look at it? What information does he have that gives him the confidence and the evidence to state that he can deliver 460 to 470 units per year, rather than 100 units per year? I want to give him the benefit of the doubt that his department had the information when he answered this question. Thank you.
