Thank you, Madam Chair. No, just a highlight on what Ms. Jane Weyallon Armstrong was saying. We're having the same issues in my riding. A lot of, like, couch surfing, people struggling, and, again, it's the -- the weather's not forgiving. It's cold where I'm from in regards to shortage of houses, shortage of everything, people -- family taking care of family. You know, some units, 10 to 15 people, five-bedroom units. It's -- this is not a joke. We have to sort -- we have to try to fix this issue. You know, it's not only the government. But, you know, it's our own land claim group too. We have to work together to try to get units put in and safety -- the safety of young girls and safety of young men because they got nowhere to go. And people that -- you know, it, Madam Chair, as well as I do, any time you go to somebody's house they always make sure you eat, and we're blessed to be able to do that in our communities, that we try to take care of one another. But, you know what, people are getting stretched so thin, you know, and we need to help them. They need help. And we're here as 19 Members here in this House, like, could make so much difference for the betterment of the people that we represent. And I really think that -- I really hope they're listening on this and try to work with us on this to get it sorted out before we're done. Thank you, Madam Chair.
