Since you mentioned housing, I'm going to tell you what we think. Given that the federal government has to negotiate with Quebec, particularly so it can fully implement its programs, it's causing delays that drive up costs and postpone housing construction. The Bloc Québécois proposes, instead, that the government transfers funding to Quebec, because municipalities are actually the ones in charge of zoning and permits. Ultimately, the housing is there, in those cities, on their streets.
The Quebec government has programs, and so does the federal government. After launching Canada's national housing strategy in 2017, the federal government had to negotiate with the Quebec government for three years before a single housing unit could be built, meaning before the money was transferred. For its part, the housing accelerator fund was announced three years ago, but it took two years of negotiations before the federal government and Quebec reached a $1.8 billion agreement.
Don't you think it would be faster if the federal government showed a little humility and put its fiscal capacity forward by sending a one-time payment to the Quebec government? Wouldn't that accelerate housing construction, which would benefit all those struggling right now to find a place to live?
