Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Good afternoon to my colleagues and thank you to CMHC and Ms. Bowers for coming before us today.
I want to start with co-op housing. In my riding of Saint John—Rothesay, Housing Alternatives has a wonderful project moving forward in the co-op housing sector. We know that co-op housing is critical when it comes to expanding the supply of affordable housing. Through budget 2022, our government is making the largest investment in 30 years in the expansion of co-op housing. To your point earlier, it's been a long time.
Can you speak to the work CMHC is already doing with the co-op sector, as well as the work being done to partner with that sector and the rollout of these new investments?
Thank you.
