Mr. Speaker, Canada's housing crisis demands urgent action to lower costs and expand access to affordable and sustainable homes. Recently, the federal government, together with the City of Hamilton, celebrated the completion of 82 new homes on Queenston Road in Hamilton Centre.
Our work did not stop there. We also marked the groundbreaking of a 40-unit supportive housing project on Gage Avenue North for indigenous people transitioning out of homelessness, investing $12 million. We are also proud to join Kiwanis Homes next week for the launch of its new project on Barton Street East, again in Hamilton Centre.
We are working with community partners to build homes at a rate not seen since the Second World War.
