We have not specifically examined the evolution of the programs over time. That would have required a slightly more complete history than we had obtained.
On the other hand, the indigenous population is growing much faster than the rest of the population. That growth not just a little stronger, it's much stronger. As a result, the funding needed to maintain the status quo is expected to grow much faster than for the overall Canadian population, and inflation. If there is no significant investment directed to indigenous Canadians, the problem will certainly not abate, because, as I mentioned, this population is growing rapidly.
In fact, the housing needs of indigenous people are becoming more acute as household size increases. Households with multiple children are in greater need of adequate and affordable housing than the rest of the population. The differences are less pronounced for one- and two-person households, but six- and seven-person households have the greatest need. This indicates that population growth will not cause these needs to diminish, quite the contrary.
