Thank you, Madam Chair. And the Member is correct, you know, we did get the $60 million over two years but that was ongoing federal engagements and conversations that was happening with the federal government, and we also do have the 100-unit rollout as well and also acknowledging seniors within that rollout as well. We've also worked very closely with the federal government to enhance their co-investment application for the Indigenous governments as well too, and for stakeholders and NGOs throughout the Northwest Territories. And separate from that, I just -- I don't want to kind of get off into a tangent here but then there's just -- you know, there's the $500 million that's coming here to the Northwest Territories that has been identified for specific Indigenous groups through the distinction based funding. With that, together we are working in conjunction in trying to provide adequate support at the community level as well. We've entered into the community housing plans where these would become lobbying documents to address the housing, those specific housing needs in the smaller communities. One thing that the portfolio has done is try to come up with very unique and innovative ideas on how to address housing in the Northwest Territories. Thank you, Madam Chair.
