President, Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation

For the province.

I would just like to clarify first that the 40,000 units the minister spoke of relate to our existing affordable housing initiative, the total funding for which is $1 billion. That's not to confuse it with the $2 billion that's put in Canada's economic plan.

In the case of British Columbia, we have 4,306 units at the end of September, and I believe I have an update as well for the end of December 2008. In Saskatchewan it was 1,328 units.
