Madam Speaker, organizations that support people experiencing homelessness have expressed concerns about the funding for the community encampment response plan. What we understand from reading the budget is that the amount allocated for 2024-26 will not be renewed and that there will be no increase in funding to help organizations. However, we know that this is a serious problem.
Can the hon. parliamentary secretary confirm that Ottawa is withdrawing assistance to tackle homelessness outside of housing initiatives, for instance to address encampments?
