Thank you, Mr. Chair.
My question will be for Mr. John.
I want to thank the witnesses today, because the witness testimony is so powerful in these committees. One sentence can lead to a recommendation, can change a recommendation or can change the path of the housing accelerator fund. This housing accelerator fund came to this committee for study, and it is our opportunity to impact what that might look like.
Going back to the idea that perhaps the goal of the fund is not clearly stated and it is not necessarily meeting the need for core housing or what is needed right now, I want to ask Mr. John about the criteria.
We had the Minister of Housing here last week. I asked him about accessible housing, and I was told that a portion of any housing that's funded through the housing accelerator fund would need to be accessible. Madame Chabot has brought up affordability many times. What are those criteria? What do they look like?
I guess I would ask you, Mr. John, what you have heard. Is there a clear understanding of what the criteria are to access this funding? Do you have a definition for affordable housing and accessible housing that should or could be in this funding criteria?
