Mr. Speaker, every Canadian has a right to a safe and affordable place to call home, and it is unacceptable that anyone in this country experience homelessness. That is why we are moving forward, in partnership with indigenous peoples, on an urban indigenous strategy that will support and fight against homelessness by giving the supports to people. These supports will be culturally appropriate and anchored in language and traditional knowledge. They will also ensure that the healing that needs to go hand in hand with addictions and mental health care, and so many other things, is addressed in a comprehensive way. We will be getting it right.
