Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Thank you to all the guests. This is a very important discussion that we're having today.
Mr. Gladstone, thank you very much for your comments. I want to pick up on and give you a chance to expand on a couple of points you made that I think are very important.
I very much share the concern around the overwhelming need for supportive housing right now for people with intellectual disabilities and with a range of disabilities. I know that the ICC and Reena are doing tremendous work in that regard.
I want to ask you a bit about the point you were making about how to ensure that supportive housing projects get built. In addition to the carve-out, what are the ways in which we can support ensuring that projects such as this come forward? I've heard from other organizations that it's about things like making sure we get through the design phase so that projects are more shovel-ready, but what advice do you have for us to make sure that the supportive housing dollars we've set aside really translate into action?
