I am cognizant of the references in the discussion we had yesterday and so on. I appreciate the Minister’s comments. Again I’m trying to emphasize, too, the coordination role and integration with other government departments and agencies and wouldn’t expect that the Housing Corporation would do all this. There are other departments that could assist with developing the local materials so that they did meet standards. The Housing Corporation could probably work to come up with some forms of appropriate housing that perhaps didn’t have the same types of standards and meet the situation halfway. There are others involved in capacity building that could be brought into the equation and I’m sure are. But that’s the sort of thing that I was looking for. Sort of the strategic planning sorts of things. I think we need to, as the Minister says, our resources are declining sooner or later, and more and more, almost regardless of what happens, we’re going to be depending on local capacity for these things. I’m trying to seek ways, as I’m sure the Minister is, to help ensure that those skills are on the ground in all our communities so that when we do hit rock bottom or should we, the potential is there to pick up the slack.
I again appreciate the comments of the Minister and I would just ask him to make sure that is emphasized in the strategic planning for the Housing Corporation. Just a comment.
