Thank you for the question.
You said the Prime Minister didn't do me any favours by appointing me Minister of Housing, Infrastructure and Communities. In fact, he gave me the opportunity to make a difference on an important issue for our country, and I have high hopes for the Housing Accelerator Fund.
That said, it's important to understand the purpose of the fund. It's not just about building a house here and a unit there. In fact, its purpose is to change the way housing is built in communities. It's also about changing regulations in cities and municipalities. In Quebec, municipalities can't deal directly with the federal government. That's okay, because I have a good working partner in Ms. Duranceau, the Quebec minister responsible for housing. In fact, we've had discussions to come to an agreement that would ensure funds are used to increase the number of housing units in Quebec.
To speed up the process, at the same time, we'll identify projects and infrastructure that will enable more house—
