Thank you, I appreciate that.
I also want to put on the record, Mr. Chair, that during the voting marathon in December, the Conservatives voted to defund the Office of the Federal Housing Advocate. I'm glad that they have shown some compassion and interest in resolving the issues today, but I do want to put that on the record.
There have been a number of suggestions around an acquisition fund, which I think is a very popular idea. A number of witnesses have mentioned that.
A few years ago, one thing that our federal government invested in for Toronto, which was a game-changer and not done before, was $1.3 billion for Toronto Community Housing in order to ensure that there are repairs and housing is kept in good condition for those who are already living in our affordable housing spaces.
I know an acquisition fund is important, but are ideas like the types of investments that we've made in Toronto Community Housing at the city level also a good step?
