One of the arguments that have been made for selling these buildings is that some of them require ongoing maintenance. When the minister was here and talking about properties, this is the point he made as well. There had been no funds or insufficient funds put aside for maintenance.
I'm a homeowner, and normally that's something you do. After so many years you have to replace your furnace and your windows and paint the place and do various things. How could it be that in looking after these 46,000 buildings worth $20 billion or so that we neglected to set aside adequate funds to maintain these properties?
