Mr. Speaker, I think similar problems exist in my colleague's riding and in my riding of La Prairie—Atateken. As just one example, we hear a lot about housing construction, but there is an underlying problem, which is the lack of infrastructure needed to support that construction. With this measure, we will enable cities and towns to obtain subsidies to build the infrastructure needed to accommodate people, thereby increasing the density of our regions. Cities will also eventually have the means to improve public transit. We need to keep in mind that these things are all part of a whole.
