Thank you, Mr. Chair. I’ll

respond to the first part of Ms. Bisaro’s concern and then I’ll have Mr. Anderson respond to the non- residential.

We hear the concern that we do need more public housing across the Northwest Territories, and again, we keep saying that we’re challenged by the CMHC declining funding, but I think there’s probably going to have to come a time where we can’t keep saying, well, we’re challenged by the CMHC declining funding. We have to think, or future government may have to make a decision as to whether we are just a public housing provider and use the money that we put into some of our repair programs to help offset the losses from CMHC. I think we’ve been very fortunate in the last couple of years that this Assembly has stepped up and filled in some of the gap of the money that we lost through the declining funding, but there’s going to have to be a decision, I think, made in the future sometime as to whether we are just solely a public housing provider or we continue with the programs we have and continue to be challenged financially.

I will have Mr. Anderson speak to the non-residential renovation.
