Thank you, Mr. Chair.
What NDP amendment 5 would do is replace line 15 with the following: “The national housing strategy shall include incentives for affordable rental housing and shall”, etc. It's including incentives for affordable rental housing. We heard from witnesses from the apartment associations about the role of the private sector in ending the housing crisis in Canada, and this is acknowledgement that most low-income households live in private rental housing and the private sector does have a stake in affordable housing. This is in recognition of what we actually heard from witnesses at committee.
