The 500,000 is what CMHC has estimated, based on the research, as the number that we need to build to catch up for decades of not building enough housing in Canada, so it's a long-term goal to scale up construction. We have to do construction differently. We have to use modern methods of construction so that we can build faster and more affordably, and we also have to ensure that we are hitting those affordable targets first and foremost.
If we are not building more non-market, affordable housing, we're going to continue to have the huge challenge we have with homelessness and the challenges we have for young people affording affordable homes.
