Let's get into that, then.
Just to clarify, though.... I've done a little research. For Dartmouth, it's been about 11 years since the Canada Lands Company got a hold of it. For Longueuil, Quebec, it has been about 20 years since Canada Lands got a hold of it.
Heron Road in Ottawa has been 12 years in the works. The longest time period there has been just for getting the federal government to dispose of the lands. For Downsview, it's been 16 years. For Winnipeg, it's been five. The Edmonton project has been ongoing for 22 years, and there are still no homes built, of course.
I guess I want to point out that none of these were raw or newly identified lands. They've all been in the works with the CLC for years—sometimes decades. Four were already zoned and effectively ready to go. Build Canada Homes' main intervention has been procurement of financing.
Was it not possible for the Canada Lands Company to have those tools as well, since it already existed as a federal agency?
