Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I have a motion to put on the floor today about the federal housing advocate report. I move:
That pursuant to Standing Order 108(2), the committee undertake a study to examine the research reports on the financialization of housing released by the Office of the Federal Housing Advocate on September 8, 2022; that the committee examine corporate ownership of single family homes, rent gouging and other predatory tactics such as renovictions; that the committee hold no fewer than three meetings with witnesses for this study; that witnesses include researchers from all of the six reports released through the Office of the Federal Housing Advocate and a dedicated panel to hear testimony from the Federal Housing Advocate; that the committee report its findings to the House; and that, pursuant to Standing Order 109, the government table a comprehensive response thereto.
