Thank you, Madam Chair.
Thank you to our witnesses today. The world is obviously politically heated right now, and we appreciate your time.
I want to come back to Mr. Wisner, if I can.
Death threats are certainly not acceptable at anyone's expense.
One thing we're seeing and hearing a lot about in the 2SLGBTQIA+ community is homelessness—access to resources and housing. In a lot of the agencies you're helping with.... Again, I know there's a diverse group of people here who are working with different folks.
How important is housing? I see it in my community of Peterborough. We have a youth emergency shelter. There's a high percentage of kids who are identifying, and they don't have access to affordable housing. How important do you think the economy is, and how does it come into play in how people do? We've seen this. We've heard the Liberals say this, too: When the economy falls, people look for a scapegoat. They're stressed out of their minds, they're not regulated, and they project and hurt other people because they're in survival mode.
Mr. Wisner, how important do you think a healthy economy is to restoring the ability to even learn, be educated and be in that headspace?
