Thanks, Mr. Chairman. My quick question will be to Mr. Barndt.

Joshua, last week, we had Ms. Abi Bond from the housing secretariat in Toronto. She referenced the MURA program and talked about, as you have this morning, the importance of flowing the funds as quickly as possible to municipalities and service providers to ensure that we avoid some of the issues that Ms. Kusie raised earlier about rising interest rates and inflation issues.

Can you expand upon the MURA fund and elaborate on the importance of flowing the funds quickly to non-profit service providers and municipalities?
