Absolutely. In fact, I see it frequently, after engaging with the social finance and social purpose sector right across the country, both in urban and rural parts of Canada. I see how incredible they are in terms of tackling local challenges with respect to local community concerns.
The London Ontario Youth Opportunities Unlimited is an example I use frequently to demonstrate an organization that is using a business approach to create sustainable lines of funding to solve a real community challenge, which is a prevalence of homelessness among London and area youth.
They have done that. They have successfully built an affordable housing unit next to their coffee shop. They have accessed national housing strategy dollars to build two additional buildings that are doing more than just providing housing. They are actually training cooks and providing child care, as well as creating a job bank at the first level of those buildings.
It's a great example. I have seen, in fact, many other organizations do the exact same thing across Canada.
