We hear more slogans, Mr. Speaker. If we scratched the surface of that so-called idea, what would we find? The Conservatives would axe something. They would get rid of the housing accelerator fund, which is so crucial. What does it do? It provides funding for affordable housing to counter homelessness. It provides funding for zoning changes. It provides funding for housing-enabling infrastructure, for community centres and even for vacant buildings in downtown areas, so they can be converted for housing.
If the member does not believe me, he should take the word of the member for Central Okanagan—Similkameen—Nicola who advocated for it. He is their former finance critic who unfortunately is on the back benches because he advocates for good programs.
