Thank you, Mr. Chair.
It's worth pointing out that our government recently introduced the build communities strong fund. In budget 2025, about $51 billion was allocated for regional projects that would adapt to climate change.
I just wanted to mention that this is quite important to me because I hear about floods from residents in my riding. Unlike my colleague from British Columbia, I have a more urban riding. I have Rivière-des-Prairies and Anjou. Last summer, there was extensive flooding in Anjou. A lot of homeowners who normally rent out their basements were no longer insured or they decided that it was no longer relevant for them to rent out their basement units.
I mention this because it's also tied to the issue of affordability. Residents in my riding are having a hard time finding housing. What I'm hearing from residents is that the flooding situation is exacerbating the housing crisis. At least that's what I'm seeing on the ground. A lot of the blame is going toward local elected officials, so I'm seeing those impacts directly in my riding.
Ms. Myers, can you provide this committee with any reports that demonstrate the increase of housing costs linked to floods or anything around adaptation to climate change?
