I thank the Minister for her answer and for her efforts to address this issue. I appreciate that it is an enormous one. Affordability is a key problem in Yellowknife. I appreciate that the government will provide help to people on income assistance and through the Transitional Rent Supplement Program, but still affordability for low- income people is an issue. I want to just ask about the CMHC, Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation, funding. I know that that organization funds operations and maintenance of public housing stock and that that number has been in decline since 2003. Is the fact that this operations and maintenance money is going down one of the reasons the government can't build more units?
