Mr. Speaker, a new report confirms what Canadians already knew: The Liberal housing crisis is not just locking generations out of home ownership; it is dragging down our whole economy. Teachers are commuting hours just to afford rent; tradespeople are building homes they are priced out of owning; and permitting in London is taking over six months, even for a small renovation. Now the Liberals' own data shows collapsing housing starts: down 72% in London.
After nearly a decade in power, how does the government defend doubling housing costs and tanking our economy?
