Thank you very much for the question.
For two decades we've seen housing prices skyrocket, while building of rental housing has stagnated and social housing is eroding. The lack of options for all Canadians has put housing affordability at the centre of our economic challenges. At the end of the day, this is a challenge that can be met through predictable long-term housing investments and a partnership between all orders of government.
I think it needs to be said, as well, that a number of the programs are expiring. We are asking that at the very least we stay where are and not go backwards because there is a serious problem now.
