Mr. Speaker, just yesterday, the Auditor General confirmed that the Liberal government cannot be trusted to deliver on housing. It promised to convert empty federal offices into 4,000 units of affordable housing but has managed to complete only about 300 units so far. That is a total failure. It turns out that almost half the units are being built in areas that do not even need them. Now, after seven years and $300 million spent, the former housing minister got promotions, while housing has become even more unaffordable.
Canadians need fewer broken promises and more homes built. The Conservative housing plan would quickly sell federal properties close to transit stations and jobs, in order to get affordable homes built faster for Canadians in communities that need them.
