Mr. Chair, I want to thank the honourable member for that really important question. I recognize how real the need is for safe and affordable housing in Winnipeg, especially in the member's constituency, and that this is a priority for her community. That is why we've already invested $228 million in the city of Winnipeg, representing over 6,200 units.
Just last week I joined Mayor Bowman of Winnipeg in announcing $22.8 million through our rental construction financing initiative for 87 new housing units; 29 of those units are deeply affordable.
To support those who are in dire need, we quickly provided over $20 million [Technical difficulty—Editor] $12.5 million through the rapid housing initiative just for Winnipeg, so that they may use it the way they see fit for rapid housing solutions.
