Thank you, Madam Chair.
Welcome, Mr. Harris, Ms. Torres and Ms. Hannaburg. I'm sorry: Our colleagues claim that this issue is important to them, but they're using their time to talk about other things. Thank you very much for being here today. Shelters and transition homes are an important matter. In Quebec, we call them MH1s and MH2s. We're almost done with gathering testimony.
I'll start with you, Mr. Harris.
You mentioned certain barriers to speeding up the construction of shelters and transition homes. With the creation of Build Canada Homes, the federal agency that's invested in this area—let us see if you think these are the right approaches—do you think this is one of the avenues worth exploring, from a government perspective, to speed up the construction of shelters, particularly for women?
