I am going to try to be brief.
Ms. Bowers, you undoubtedly know that many housing projects in Quebec financed by the Rapid Housing Initiative, the RHI, are unable to get started at present because of the labour shortage and rising labour costs. That is a very important issue.
I have had an opportunity to discuss this with Mr. Hussen, who told me there were a lot of similar cases throughout Canada.
Have representations been made to the government for these projects to be adequately financed?
We are talking about good projects that have already been accepted, particularly in the case of the RHI projects, which are intended to help the most vulnerable people.
Has this been brought to your attention? Is the government considering investing to finance these projects so they can get started?
