Mr. Speaker, the Canadian dream of home ownership is slipping away from young Canadians. The government's own housing agency says that housing starts will fall over the next three years, going down as much as 18% by 2028, while prices keep going up. After years of Liberal policies that drove up costs and slowed down construction, buyers cannot buy and builders cannot build. The only solution the Liberals can come up with is to build a fourth housing bureaucracy.
When will the government admit that Liberal rhetoric and bureaucracies do not build homes and finally scrap the GST on all new homes, incentivize building and restore the dream of home ownership?
