Okay. I got lost here. In the Northwest Territories there are almost 500 on the waiting list across the Territories. So we have a huge job ahead of us. We’re taking little steps here in the city to try and alleviate some of the problem. I couldn’t answer the Member’s question as to why there’s such a huge waiting list. There could be a migration of people into the city. There could be many other reasons. And the economy could have a part in it. But we’re doing what we can. I can assure the Member that we’ll continue to work with the City of Yellowknife and the CMHC on this affordable housing organization that they’re hoping to set up and then see what we can do there to alleviate some of the housing issues in the city. If things go along as they’re going, we’re going to need more houses on the ground not only in Yellowknife but across the Territory, especially in some of the larger centres. Thank you.
