Thank you, Madam Chair. I am not sure if the department actually did a cost analysis to see what the cost would be. What I would like to say, Madam Chair, is that sometimes we have to agree to disagree. I think on this one, we have to agree to disagree. We don't have a lot of money. Our economy is bad. We know that there is not a Member here that does not know that and is not aware of that. We need to make sure that we focus our funding during this time towards our most marginalized. I beg to differ. I think that people who are making $200,000 a year plus should be able to afford their own ramps. I bet that those people, elders, seniors who are making over $200,000 will not stay in public housing if they can stay in their own homes. They will pay for that. Our goal is to provide services to as many low-income families, elders as we can. That is our commitment. Thank you, Madam Chair.
