Madam Speaker, listening to the Liberal parliamentary secretary, I have to scratch my head and wonder what country he is living in or, maybe, what planet. He talks about a housing accelerator program when it actually should be called a housing decelerator program. The Liberals have put a break on housing starts. In Vancouver and Toronto, housing starts are down to levels that they were at in the seventies.
We can compare that with the Conservative plan, which would put up to $50,000 into people's pockets when they purchase a new home, and ensure a savings, also, of $2,500 a year. If the Liberals do not want to do a carbon tax election, why not one on the housing plan that we have?
