Mr. Speaker, food security experts and poverty elimination companies do a great job advocating directly to government, and what they are saying is that we need more affordable housing. In the last two weeks alone, we have announced 857 new co-op housing units. That is really close to home for me because I am proud to have grown up in co-op housing, unlike some of the Conservatives who like to call it Soviet-style housing or to degrade affordable housing by calling it shacks or something like that.
We are creating more jobs, and we are creating opportunity for Canadians, but every single time we bring a motion forward in the House to provide that care to Canadians, whether it is through child care, dental care or affordable food in schools, the Conservatives vote against it.
