Mr. Speaker, I am the NDP critic for housing and a member of the all-party anti-poverty caucus.
I often hear about how many people living with disabilities also live below the poverty line. Earlier, someone mentioned that 80% of adults with autism spectrum disorder do not have jobs. It can be very hard to find an apartment or suitable housing with limited financial resources.
Does my colleague think we should pay special attention to housing to help people with autism spectrum disorder and others with disabilities, such as his son?
