Thank you, Mr. Chair. Housing NWT realizes that much of its stock is aging, aging stock. Again, the needs across the territory are great. There's been a number of reports of housing needs across the Northwest Territories. And hopefully with the territorial housing needs assessment that's going to be completed over the next six months will provide better data both for Housing NWT and this government. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. I see Deline's on the list of repairs there with six units. I'm glad to see that. We've, on our recent trips, heard a number of concerns on the older stock having mold and mildew created as a result of these units. And I'm also glad to see that your tangible capital assets are equal, and it's -- the financing of these expenditures include funding from the CMHC and other various sources. That tells me that you're exhausting other people's money, which is good. How much of that -- just a real general question, how much of that is coming from the federal government? Thank you, Mr. Chair.

So Mr. Chair, maybe the Minister could explain what that statement is on page 72 about funding from CMHC? Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Chair. CMHC and CIRNAC, we had a bilateral agreement signed with CIRNAC in 2020, and those agreements provide us operations and maintenance dollars to maintain the public housing units across the Northwest Territories. It's approximately $19 million combined, $18 million combined, something in that range. It's declining year to year. We have the bilateral agreement that will decline -- or will end in 2028, and the CMHC agreement will end in 2038. Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thank you. I'm going to continue on. I don't see any Members.

Seeing no further questions, I remind the committee that the estimates for Housing Northwest Territories are included in the capital estimate as information items only. The committee will not be voting on activity total.

Please return now to the Housing Northwest Territories summary found on page 72. Are there any further questions or comments from committee? I'm going to go to the Member from Inuvik Boot Lake.
