Madam Speaker, notwithstanding the gimmick of what the member just did, it is very clear that he is not one of the 19. He is a good soldier of the Leader of the Opposition. He does what he is told. I would encourage him to talk to the member for St. Albert—Edmonton. That member wrote a letter to the housing minister, specifically asking him to please support the member's community with the housing accelerator fund.
He can play the games that he wants. Ha, ha, it is really funny, although we are trying to talk about something serious here. The reality is that the member is just here to recite his leader's talking points. He says that this program of his, of removing the GST, is somehow going to solve all the housing problems. I guess it will solve problems by removing the GST from new housing. However, we only pay GST on a brand new home. This is only going to be applied to people who are buying a brand new home.
I would love to know how many young Canadians who are first-time homebuyers are only buying brand new homes. We are completely removing everybody else. How is that program going to suddenly solve the whole housing crisis?
