Thank you.
I'd recommend dealing with the Northwest Territory Métis Nation directly and doing a proper assessment, getting us to do the assessment on a needs basis on how we can develop our own program, which will eventually sustain itself. What we're planning on doing with the $6 million we have is something totally different from how the GNWT has dealt with housing over the years. The way that housing has developed, housing programs are for low-cost housing, and it's basically as case of the less you make, the more you qualify.
I'm developing our program to encourage our people to get into the workforce. If you have a job, you can get a credit rating. We'll help you to get assistance so that you can get into buying your own home. It's fine for a start, but we're finding that there aren't enough homes in our communities to actually get people into, so we actually have to get enough money so that we can build these homes and get our people into them, but to date we don't have the capacity to do that at all.
Dealing with us directly is going to tell you exactly what our needs are, and we'll do our own needs assessments and so on for the future. We're talking about elders as well. It would save Canada money if we had our elders living in their homes as long as they possibly can. We would like to be doing stuff like that as well. We have our own vision for housing, for sure.
