Mr. Speaker, I thank my colleague for her extremely pertinent question.
There is a whole history behind the cuts to funding for social and affordable housing that were carried out by both a Liberal and a Conservative government.
The Liberals abolished the program in 1993. As I just mentioned, investments are barely half of what they should be, half of what is required. Additionally, Quebec is only three years behind everyone else. That makes the crisis even worse.
The Liberals promised in 2015 that they would waive the GST on all new social and truly affordable housing. They have been in power for six years and have not waived it yet. This is a small measure that could boost the initiative to build new affordable housing for families.
