Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I'll start by saying that I am a middle-aged woman who has reading glasses that I will put on and off throughout my intervention today.
I have to thank witness MacKenzie for those comments about already knowing the barriers and also the question of will. We've had these discussions over and over again, and I really hope that the witness testimony today and what comes out of this report are truly acted on.
There was a lot of talk about housing. My first question is going to be for witness Kurdi around housing.
I appreciate all of your work and the comments. You've come to committee before. I wonder if you could debunk this myth that it's more expensive for housing to be accessible for all.
