I would like to thank MP Trudel for his kind words of congratulation.
In terms of the first round of the RHI, the province of Quebec, including all the projects, received approximately 18% of the funding. When you look at how we distributed the funding, you see that there was $1 billion in funding available, and $500 million of that was provided for the major cities. We identified the major cities, and we looked at the level of severe housing need that existed in those cities, as well as accounts of homelessness. We based our allocation of the $500 million on those statistics.
The other $500 million was under what was called the project stream. Quebec received a special allocation, but when you're thinking about our methodology, it was for projects other than in the province of Quebec. It was based on the merits of the strength of the various projects that came in.
