Mr. Chairman, over the last several years the Housing Corporation has been tracking the cost of electricity as well as power generation. I should also indicate that we have worked closely with the Arctic Energy Alliance, as well, in doing things like blower door testing and so on. In addition to that, a lot of the work that we have been doing recently, particularly over the last three years, has been related to housing design and making sure that our EnerGuide 80 standards have been addressed. Most recently, the Housing Corporation has also been certified as an EnerGuide 80 provider, so we do keep close contact or close monitoring of those costs and recognize those costs as one of the areas that we can reduce the expenditure profile of the Housing Corporation in light of the need to do business more effectively as well as in consideration of the fact that we are losing funding from CMHC.
