The pensioner, whether it be the $12,000 or other figures that may be out there, there are certain household income thresholds that we have to deal with. But if it’s correct, that $12,000, then the senior should qualify for subsidy unless there is other household income within the home. It’s on a case-by-case basis, but certainly I did commit already that we are looking at reviewing our subsidy program specifically for seniors. I will be coming back to the standing committee to give them an update of any changes that will be undertaken.
