Let's take Ottawa, for example. They just proposed to increase their development charges by almost 30%. They've backed off a bit: They're only going up by 11%. The notion that they're going up at all anywhere in the country is absolutely mind-boggling in an affordability crisis.
These accelerator funds are not paid out all at once. They're paid out in quarterly payments. We haven't seen the agreements, but from reading the staff reports, it would appear as though you and your office have the final say on whether they get their next payments and whether they get that each quarter.
Ottawa already has received $44 million, I guess. The next chunk will be another $44 million. Would you be prepared to address Ottawa or any of the other cities that are recipients of this money to say that we need to focus on affordability as well, and to pro-rate the next payment or even not make the next payment, if they keep increasing development charges?
