Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Just one more comment or idea in this nature. Is the ability or the opportunity that aboriginal self-government organizations potentially have in this area? Certainly one of the broad objectives or visions of aboriginal self-government is that these governments will then gain back the authority, the ability and the responsibility for doing more things for themselves and for their own people in their own region. Is supplying housing one of the potential things that the self-government organizations here in the NWT could or should be entertaining? If the federal and, therefore, the territorial government's ability to do this is diminishing, what is their capacity to potentially be part of the solution, Mr. Chairman? Thank you.
