Thank you for that.

My understanding is that the $157 million has been given across the country to help organizations protect homeless people from COVID-19. In my riding, money was allocated to the Human Development Council, with Randy Hatfield and his team, to allocate that money to the shelters and organizations in the riding that certainly need it.

I know that an earlier question was asked about the what, but how did you determine the regional breakdown of funding? How did you come up with that?
