Mr. Speaker, my hon. colleague talked a lot about housing. What I am hearing from the residents of Middlesex—London is that housing has become completely unaffordable.
The Liberals talk about taking GST off for first-time homebuyers. The Conservatives' plan was to take the GST off all new home builds, because the reality is that it is very difficult to find homes under a million dollars now. A lot of people have purchased a home at some point in their life, and now they are looking at expanding their family and trying to purchase a larger home, perhaps, to house their family.
I am just wondering if the member would comment on why the budget falls so short and why it does not include all new home builds with regard to the GST exemption.
