Thank you, Madame Gazan. I will note that I had those Order Paper questions distributed to all committee members in both official languages a number of weeks ago already. They should be in your inbox.
Do you know what? I didn't actually expect our committee to be disrupted in this way, but I really am trying to get answers on the rapid housing initiative, and when I get black pages from the government, that doesn't sit well with me as a parliamentarian who's responsible for fighting on behalf of my constituents, many of whom are indigenous and many of whom were upset with this program and the approach.
Furthermore, when I'm hearing from people like the mayor of Burnaby, chair of the Metro Vancouver housing committee, that there are some big problems, I have a responsibility to push for more information.
Sunshine is always the best medicine. I think there's an easy way around this, noting Mr. Vaughan's concerns around proprietary information. I understand that. That's why I was open to a friendly amendment, but he doesn't want to be accountable in a way that exposes his decision-making to the people of Canada. I understand that.
That's the last comment I'm going to make on this today. Really, I didn't think it would come to this today, but my point is that transparency is always better than black pages.
