Well, certainly in January we released our National Action Plan on Housing and Homelessness, which laid out a fairly comprehensive plan on how all three orders of government could work together to reduce homelessness, to actually eliminate chronic homelessness and improve housing affordability. We released that plan in January, and many municipalities across the country have, on their own initiative, taken motions in council to support that housing plan.
One of the objectives of the action plan that we've developed is to provide a framework that can provide supportive policies and programs that individual communities are going to be able to adapt to their own realities, which Michel was just talking about. Housing and homelessness issues look very different in different communities. Our goal is to develop federal, provincial, and municipal programs that can be focused and targeted on the problems that appear in each community.
One of the key elements of that housing plan is a long-term commitment by all three orders of government to these problems. Extensive planning is required to deal with some of these. I know Mr. Sarlo spoke about that, about the need for targets. The national action plan contains very clear targets on various elements of housing and homelessness.
