Mr. Speaker, it was announced just this morning that, in fact, housing starts are down in my community and across the country.
In 2015, people could actually afford a home. Nine years of the NDP-Liberal government has only brought us a housing crisis.
The head of the Residential Construction Council of Ontario said that construction is down there. We are seeing this across the entire country. He said that high financing costs and development charges mean homebuilders are sitting at home instead of building homes.
Since the Prime Minister has no meaningful plan, will the Liberals vote for our housing bill put forward by the Conservative opposition leader to build the homes, not bureaucracy?
