Madam Speaker, I think I was clear on that point. I spoke about the number of dwelling units missing in Canada, either for aboriginal people, for the elderly or for those who cannot afford a house and would like to find an apartment. There are some 25 or 30 year-old young adults who have to live with their parents when in fact they would prefer to live in an apartment.
We cannot wait a year. The situation is urgent. We must act now. If the federal government wanted to, it could declare an emergency situation right now. It takes very little time to implement a program. They only have to tell the public servants “Today, we are implementing a program. It will be effective immediately and apply countrywide”. I can assure you that it would create jobs and that we could succeed.
