Madam Speaker, the member across the way mentioned the rapid housing initiative and has been speaking of housing in the north more broadly.
In my riding of Kenora in northwestern Ontario, we see many of these issues day after day. One of the things that concerned me when the rapid housing initiative was announced is that there seems to be a specific focus on urban centres when, meanwhile, northern rural regions and indigenous communities seem to have to fight for the rest of the funds.
I would ask the member why northern Canada and indigenous communities, more specifically, weren't offered a specific stream as part of this initiative.
