Thank you for that.

Exhibit 5.4 of the report shows that chronic homelessness was 11.3% higher in 2019-20 than the 2016 baseline, while the target is a 31% decrease by 2023-24 and a 50% decrease by 2027-28.

To have a chance of achieving this goal, chronic homelessness would need to fall by 38% between 2020 and 2024 and by 55% between 2020 and 2028. How does CMHC plan to reverse the trend and achieve these targets?
