Mr. Speaker, housing prices in the greater Vancouver area are among the highest in North America because of non-resident foreign buyers, money laundering, the failed Liberal first-time homebuyer program and a lack of affordable housing. Middle-class families in my riding feel it every day.
A young family in Port Moody are saving up for their first down payment by living at a parent's home, but skyrocketing prices are shutting them completely out of the competition. Their children will have to grow up far away from their grandparents in another city.
When will the government stop crushing dreams and fix the housing crisis with real solutions?
