As I outlined, the human right to housing puts a responsibility on governments to use regulations and mechanisms to be able to realize the human right to housing for everyone in Canada without discrimination, and that includes creating market conditions to decrease speculation.
I sat with this committee last year on financialization and showed the harm of what financialization does. Financialization means that it's the large corporate investors, but as the large corporate investors set the rates for rentals, all the mom-and-pops follow suit, so it has a rippling effect on everyone who is renting, for example.
As government, you have the responsibility to put in regulations to shape the housing market so that it protects the human right to housing for everyone.
