Thank you, Mr. Chair. I want to make a general comment and reiterate the comments I made in my opening remarks to the budget itself. In general, we don’t have enough public housing units in the NWT in any of our communities. Particularly here in Yellowknife, we have a huge wait-list for public housing, we have a huge wait-list for assisted living housing and so on. I would encourage the Housing Corporation to seriously consider finding a way to increase the number of units of public housing that we have. I know that we are losing money through the CMHC declining funding, but we need, particularly in Yellowknife, a greater number of units, we need higher numbers of stock.
That’s just a comment. I do have two questions from page 72, the projects in Yellowknife. The first one is it states
: “Non-residential building, 1 unit, major
retrofit.
” I’d like an explanation of why the Housing
Corporation is renovating a non-residential building.
