Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I must admit that I was touched by what Ms. Larouche said. She praised co-op housing models for seniors and empathized with low-income households. She also told us about her approach to homelessness and shared her concerns. On the subject of funding to enable the construction of social and community housing, however, I think Ms. Larouche missed a major opportunity. Indeed, as Quebeckers watch housing projects move forward, they understand very well that the measures in the 2025 budget have a lot to do with it.
My next question is for you, Mr. Baird.
Non-market housing seems to be at the heart of the current approach. Do you think this priority meets the most pressing needs of Canadians and Quebeckers in the current context?
