When the minister says “the population”, I'm not sure what's meant by that, but let's move beyond that.
You've allowed taxpayers' dollars to be transferred to municipalities under a contribution agreement to buy hotels to house asylum claimants. That is what I've been led to believe.
When you sell the building, who gets the proceeds, the taxes? Do you get the money back after the municipalities sell the hotels? Is there interest payable on the assets that municipalities are purchasing? I want to know. Do they get the money for free after the program is done?
