My sleeves have been rolled up for some time. Anytime the Member wants to sit down and talk about programs that he uses with success, we have the history on all the projects in his riding and other ridings. We can give him the cost breakdown. The reality is we can’t do any units in log building this year. We don’t have a design. We don’t have all the business case to bring forward to the federal government where we are obtaining our funding or the bulk of our funding. We would need to be convinced that it’s efficient, it’s cost efficient also, and energy efficient. I’m not saying that we can’t do it in the future. It’s just this construction year, along with everything else that we have on the go, we are probably not going to be in a position to do any log units. But I’ll be glad to continue to visit. We haven’t moved away from it. We just need to dig a little deeper, as the Member has indicated, to see what can work and how we can do it. But that would be for the next fiscal year.
