  company has successfully grown by consolidating the residential real estate 
  market in the region’s urban centres. in order to meet its long-term growth 
  targets and increase its investment in canada’s most dynamic real estate 
  markets, Killam has been actively expanding its apartment portfolio in ontario 
  and is exploring investment opportunities in Western canada. since 2010, 
  Killam has expanded its apartment target markets to include specific cities 
  in ontario, and has invested approximately $200 million in real estate assets 
  in the province. approximately 15% of Killam’s 2014 net operating income is 
  expected to be earned in ontario. the company has set a long-term target to 
  earn 50% of its net operating income outside atlantic canada.
