Mr. Speaker, I recently talked with a young fellow who said that unless his parents die and leave him their house, he will never own one. That is a reality for many young Canadians, so imagine their shock when they heard the new housing minister say that home prices do not need to come down. Under the former mayor of Vancouver, house prices shot up 179%, rent went up 50% and homelessness went up 40%.
If the housing minister did not fix it then and does not see a problem now, how much more expensive does he plan to let things get?
