That’s exactly what this elder has done. She’s gone to the Housing Corporation, she’s filled out applications, she’s asked them to come in to inspect her home and I believe I also went in and inspected her home with people from the Housing Corporation in Inuvik. Today, 12 years later, this problem is still there. I know, as a corporation, I feel they do have some responsibility here if you can prove these electrical shortages have caused these appliances to falter. They do have a responsibility. Can the Minister personally look at the possibility of having someone from the Housing Corporation go into this elder’s home, bring an electrician along with you because there are no electricians in McPherson, and do a thorough assessment to get to the problem? You have the people; you have the tools; get it done.
