Thank you for the question.
Partnership is essential to delivering. No one level of government can solve housing affordability. It's a very complex housing system in Canada. As an example, we see housing starts and the market in Quebec more stable and in many cases more affordable than other markets across Canada. I know that the Government of Quebec has been very focused on housing affordability and on delivering for their people in Quebec. We need to make sure that the partnerships recognize the strengths of each level of government, of the private sector in terms of building and construction, and of manufacturing as a big opportunity. Quebec has lots of great manufacturers who can produce housing projects.
We need to connect the dots to Canadian materials. We want to see as much Canadian softwood as we can, particularly from our provinces. B.C. and Quebec are very vulnerable right now because of the softwood tariffs. We need to see as many new homes built as we can with Canadian wood and Canadian steel and aluminum to support all these other industries. It's a complex set of partnerships to deliver more affordability and invest in the Canadian economy. We're looking forward to very strong relationships with the Government of Quebec and to make sure that we collectively can deliver for people with more affordability.
