Madam Chair, you know, the thresholds that are required for anyone wanting to have homeownership or any other thresholds within the housing department in the Housing Corporation, when is the last time they raised the thresholds? Like, has it been 20 years ago? Has it been two years ago? Has it been one year ago? Because a lot of, you know, young people that are wanting to go into homeownership, they both got jobs and then all of a sudden they're $120 over the threshold to buy the house that they were in when they first started out and didn't -- were in public housing. And now they could afford to go into homeownership but then they're told, oh, you're just over the threshold. Everything is based on threshold in this housing department that it's -- sometimes it's unacceptable, the answers, and nobody's thinking out of the box. They follow a little -- a little thing of policies, and they go through them and always disappoint everyone. And I'd like to know when was the last time that the thresholds throughout the whole department with homeownership, with waitings on list, with -- and how they do things. Thank you, Madam Chair.
