Mr. Chair, I have spoken about this often in the House, but when I was younger, we never found a home that was adapted to the needs of my disabled brother, who was in a wheelchair. My mother, who is now retired, would not be able to afford housing on her own with the pension she is receiving.
We are talking about the need to provide housing, but that also means ensuring that people have both a roof over their heads and the social safety net that comes with it. The national housing strategy includes programs that provide that support. For example, there is the program called reaching home and other national housing strategy programs.
I think we can be proud to be part of a government that is thinking not only about building housing, but also about taking care of the people who live there.
