Currently, more than 965 projects are under way. That includes renovating 3,220 housing units. The ground is being prepared so that houses and other new buildings can be built. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4738321\" data-originallang=\"fr\">The funds allocated for the improvement of community infrastructure, housing in this case, will help to provide the basics on which to create a better environment for the members of the community that will benefit from them. Then, the people could be better prepared for the labour market and could see their standard of living improve, in terms of poverty. In other words, improving community infrastructure is directly linked to the improvement of living conditions for aboriginal communities, in terms of poverty. </p>",

Dans ce contexte, 3 220 unit\u00e9s de logement vont \u00eatre r\u00e9nov\u00e9es; le terrain sera pr\u00e9par\u00e9 pour qu'on y construise des maisons ou pour accueillir de nouvelles constructions.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4738321\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Les fonds allou\u00e9s pour am\u00e9liorer l'infrastructure communautaire, en l'occurrence le logement, permettent de disposer des \u00e9l\u00e9ments de base en vue de cr\u00e9er un meilleur environnement pour les membres de la communaut\u00e9 qui vont en b\u00e9n\u00e9ficier. Par la suite, ces personnes pourraient \u00eatre mieux pr\u00e9par\u00e9es pour le march\u00e9 du travail et voir leurs conditions de vie s'am\u00e9liorer au regard de la pauvret\u00e9. En d'autres mots, le fait d'am\u00e9liorer l'infrastructure communautaire est directement li\u00e9 \u00e0 l'am\u00e9lioration des conditions de vie des communaut\u00e9s autochtones, au regard de la pauvret\u00e9.</p>"
