Minister, I'd like to ask you a question that's perhaps more sensitive, or more political, that goes beyond the numbers.
You know very well that there is a major housing crisis, and the federal government can help improve the situation. We know that this falls under provincial and municipal jurisdiction, but the federal government has decided to make a commitment to affordable housing by adopting the National Housing Strategy. You'll tell me if I'm wrong, but there may be about $40 billion left in the budget linked to the strategy, which means we're halfway to realizing it.
Have you given new directions to this strategy to ensure that programs target affordable housing and social housing, and enable faster and more agile action? If not, we won't succeed. Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation, or CMHC, says we'll need to build 3.5 million housing units by 2030, and that's without taking immigration into account. The goal is to be nimble and move faster by focusing on social and affordable housing. Strategies are made to be reviewed.
How can we move faster to help people?
