Thank you, Madam Chair. And I know -- I hear the Member's frustration, and it is frustrating as well too with the number of concerns we have throughout the Northwest Territories and looking at our response and our program delivery. But right now, the federal government is key for us. And I just -- we just got over a COVID response, you know, and looking at those further expenditures as well too that were just unforeseen, that we have felt it in the Housing Corporation as well. And also looking at the co-investment funding that was provided to the corporation over five years of $5 million annually. And the corporation does try to be very strategic with the funding that we have received. You know, I am pressing my colleagues but like I had said, we have such a huge response within the time of this government and I want to just -- for myself, just point blank, that COVID has really set us off into a different area of further expenditures that we, you know, had to endure over this -- over this time. But I will have -- like, I'll have president Young respond as well too because we just have a limited amount of funding, houses to put on the ground. We're able to get the 90-unit delivery, and the Indigenous groups are getting a fair amount as well but it's not coming to the territorial government. Thank you, Madam Chair.
