Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Greetings to all the witnesses.
I'm genuinely sorry we'll only have one round of questions because that really limits the discussion. We bring in experts to help us determine what can be done to resolve the housing crisis, and instead we're going to discuss routine business amongst ourselves. I'm really sorry, but we're going to retain the information provided in the presentations and the documents provided, and we're going to draw inspiration from it. I really want to thank the witnesses for being with us.
Ms. Demers, greetings to your colleagues who are in the room. Your first recommendation is to provide better financing for the construction and renovation of social and affordable housing. As we all know, an agreement was finally reached between Quebec City and Ottawa to transfer $900 million. Even better, Quebec City has matched that amount, and $1.8 billion will now be allocated to that file. We're really pleased about that, and you are as well, but is it enough to meet the needs?
