Thank you, Mr. Chair.
For the government, the national housing strategy was the first big stride in terms of our UN commitment to a progressive realization of a right to housing. Then there was the National Housing Strategy Act, which enacted some participatory mechanisms, such as the national housing council and the federal housing advocate. Those are key steps to a progressive realization.
As well, the government in the national housing strategy has been clear that we can't do this alone, that the federal government cannot do this alone. We are looking, as I mentioned, for others to participate to help us through this. Whether through the private sector, the provinces or the municipalities, it is a collective effort that will get us there. The governments, through six successive budgets, have put money into housing, so they are progressively realizing a right to housing.
