Mr. Speaker, according to new data, Ontario's homeowners are missing mortgage payments in record numbers. The 90-day mortgage delinquency rate has jumped 71% since last year. Canadians are facing 40-year inflation highs, lacklustre housing supply and skyrocketing mortgage rates. What does the housing minister have to say? He says that prices do not need to come down. As Vancouver's mayor, he oversaw rent going up 50%, home prices up 179% and homelessness up 40%.
Can the Minister of Housing and Infrastructure tell Canadians how many more families must fall behind before his government takes action and finally tables a budget?
