Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I know the Territory is quite anxious to see, you know, the response of what the department has been providing to the community of Fort Simpson. The Housing Corporation and Municipal and Community Affairs have just returned back from the community. We have followed up on a conversation this morning, and we are further to determine that about 43 houses have been affected in the community as well.

And looking at financial supports for that community, we have been working very closely as well and taking care of the hotel financial obligation for that community. MACA is taking care of those residents there.

And also looking at further assistance as well, we are really heavily dependent on the assessment that's going to be able to determine what needs are going to be provided for that community.

As of today, the only financial assistance that has been provided to the community is the support from the Department, both MACA and Housing, and also providing the accommodations for the residents that have been affected by the flood. The residents are currently now still in the hotels in Fort Providence and in Fort Simpson. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
