Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Might I suggest that the policy that allows seniors to live in NWT Housing Corporation’s social housing unit for no rent assessed to them is not a policy of ECE? It is a policy of the Housing Corporation. So I am very glad to hear that although ECE may pay that subsidy out of their budget, it is in fact a policy of the Housing Corporation that says to the Department of ECE, do not charge those seniors
anything for rent and utilities regardless of their income. I want to put that on the record, because that is the case.
Mr. Speaker, when the Housing Corporation and ECE do take a look at this policy, would they commit to including the NWT seniors in the consultation about improving this policy? Thank you.
