Yes, they're very close.
I'm in my office right now, and from my window, I can see the national defence housing on the left and the city of Shannon's housing on the right.
We live together. We share a territory. The children from the military base go to school with our children from the city of Shannon. It is one and the same community, with the exception that, on national defence territory, military personnel are seeking living environments that better reflect the reality of 2026. The buildings we have in Shannon are more outdated. We've renovated a few of them. These are not new buildings. They date back perhaps to the 1950s and 1960s, I would say, with all due caution.
Many military personnel choose to buy homes on our territory. As mentioned earlier, the reality you are well aware of is that military personnel are required to move frequently. They sometimes choose to live on national defence territory. In my view, the development of the 1,100 new units is driven by additional needs, but also by the need to better meet the current needs of military personnel.
We are one community. We share the same life. We share the same library. Our residents play sports on national defence territory, and we have the same day camp. We work together. We are one community. That's how I see it. We are part of a city, and we share our services.
