Thank you, Chair.
Chair, I want you to know I'm going to share my time with MP Van Bynen.
Minister, it's always a pleasure to be able to see you.
I want to thank you for coming in today to update the committee on the important work our government is doing to ensure that every Canadian has access to a safe and affordable place to call home through the commitments outlined in your mandate letter.
In June, I was thrilled to announce, in my beautiful riding of Saint John—Rothesay, $1.3 million through the national housing co-investment fund to build the Unified Saint John Housing Co-operative's Victoria Street building. It includes 14 housing units primarily intended for low-income women, including women and children. This project is truly transformational for the old north end of Saint John. It represents a strong vote of confidence on the part of our government in the co-op housing model.
Can you explain how our government is building on investments like this to help support co-op housing through our national housing strategy?
Thanks, Minister.
