Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I am glad to hear you are in the business of housing people. I have always agreed you should be.

---Laughter

I am getting a little frustrated here. I am getting standard answers and I agree with you, you are in the business to house people. I asked what would happen to these tenants after two years? Do they just keep signing a lease, signing a lease, signing a lease? I am just asking for a very clear answer and I am getting upset because I am not getting one. Thank you, Mr. Chairman.

Thank you, Mr. McLeod. Mr. Minister.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. The individuals that get into this program, we'll be able to counsel them and work with them if they can't find a way to finance the program through a mortgage and go to the bank, they will have the ability to remain in the home and rent or lease the unit and find an alternative way. We will assist them so they will not be evicted from the unit after two years. They will be able to remain there and look at the other programs that we have and counsel them. If they are unable to do it in two years, we will continue to work with them so they are eventually able to become homeowners. So it is an evolving process. They will not be evicted and asked to leave after two years and someone else will go in there. We want to keep those people in those homes and be able to work with them to make them homeowners. Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Minister. Mr. McLeod. We'll go now to Mr. Menicoche.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I just had one question with regard to grants and contributions. Where does collections of mortgage income fit in in our business plan? I don't see it at all, Mr. Chairman. It's another source or revenue. Does that go to somebody else as well, or does it go to the Housing Corporation coffers, or Finance? Where does the mortgage money constituents so diligently pay go to? Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Menicoche. Mr. Anderson.

Thank you, Mr. Anderson. Mr. Menicoche.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I am just wondering where does it show up on the books here?

Mahsi, Mr. Menicoche. Mr. Anderson.

Thank you, Mr. Anderson. Mr. Menicoche.
