I will say that the rapid housing initiative that was created by the federal government a couple of years ago did result in three different supportive housing projects coming online for this year, with one of them just about to come online.
Actually, in my remarks I mentioned that the housing accelerator fund was announced at one of our supportive housing projects called Grace Gardens. I believe the federal government contributed over $6 million to that one project alone.
Out of our entire housing for homelessness portfolio, we will have three different projects, all opening up within a 12-month period, which will house over 100 people who are vulnerable and who have homelessness issues in our city. All three of those projects did have some sort of federal component to them.
Specifically on the housing accelerator fund that was announced in Guelph, we have not yet heard the outcomes. We are really waiting for that, and the quicker it can come, the more it can improve our inside processes at city hall and also hopefully help with incentives to try to get housing moving as well.
Could it all go faster? It could, absolutely, and everyone will say that. Faster, I think, is important at all levels of government, and I would even say that about myself as well.
