Respectfully, of course, we are speaking more beyond the one time in your lifetime three months of mortgage payments. We are speaking about annual problems, yearly problems that come up every year, the high cost of oil, the high cost of electricity. I asked the Minister for advice on this particular problem. How does he see us getting to a point where we can amend the policy to help those who are working poor who just need a couple hundred dollars through the winter months to get by, because if they own a house they’re told by income support sell your house, sell your assets, come back on the system and we’ll take care of you. What type of independence are we supporting? Thank you.
