I call the meeting back to order.
Committee members, we will begin the second hour of today's committee hearing. We will move to our study on housing starts.
I would like to welcome our witnesses this morning. Both are appearing in the room.
We have Dr. Carolyn Whitzman, senior housing researcher at the University of Toronto's school of cities.
Welcome, Dr. Whitzman. You've been at this committee before.
From Rental Housing Canada, we have Tony Irwin, president and chief executive officer.
Welcome.
Each of you has up to five minutes for an opening statement.
We'll begin with Dr. Whitzman.
