Thank you, Mr. McColeman, for the motion.
As an individual from a riding representing the city of Vaughan, which has the largest housing developer in Canada, and probably a number of the other largest developers of housing in Canada, I'm quite familiar with how important these are to the economy of Canada and how important the housing market is to the economy of Ontario.
Mr. McColeman, I support this motion. I think I've received enough phone calls and emails from friends—be they Liberal, Conservative, or New Democrat—dealing with housing prices, and how a teacher these days cannot afford to enter the housing market, even though teaching is considered to be a good job with good benefits and good pay. I think it behooves us to undertake a study on the risks within the housing market and the bifurcation that's going on within housing markets in Canada, and to understand some of the trends that we're witnessing in terms of accessibility, prices, and so forth. So I support this motion.
