Mr. Speaker, earlier today a Calgary committee released its 10-year plan to end homelessness. This government recognizes that a safe and stable home is an important first step on the path out of poverty.
That is why we are working with other levels of government, the private sector and community organizations to find local solutions to address local problems.
We appreciate the work of the Calgary committee. Our government wants to continue the fight against homelessness. This government is committed to helping individuals break free from the cycle of homelessness and poverty, and move toward self-sufficiency.
The new homelessness partnering strategy is our plan and it is delivering results.
I would like to recognize today the tremendous innovative work the Calgary committee to end homelessness has undertaken.
This government looks forward to continuing to work with community leaders to ensure that all Canadians receive the care and support they need.
