As the national housing strategy approaches its closure, we're talking about its renewal this summer. We want to be ahead of the curve to make sure everyone working on delivering housing solutions and supporting work on homelessness.... We want to make sure we send a signal early about how these programs are continuing and how they're scaling up, wherever we are able to do that.
We will be meeting with all partners involved—basically, the levels of government and the community organizations working on the ground—to deliver that support. This is for Reaching Home in particular, but it is also for the other programs that are part of the national housing strategy. We want to make sure we're learning from the past decade, almost, of work. We're making the best decisions going forward and taking into account the current challenges in the housing market. Things have changed over the years.
At the centre of this, now, we have Build Canada Homes as an agency dedicated to affordable housing and working with community builders and the private sector to build affordable housing. The other components of the national housing strategy can wrap around that to make sure we have a comprehensive approach to making housing more affordable.
