Mr. Speaker, my question is to the hon. Minister of Housing.
British Columbian MPs were stunned when the provincial government killed the B.C. community housing fund. We now have projects that are ready to roll. The land has been purchased, the zoning is completed and the permits are in place for senior, low-income housing and veterans housing on Galiano Island, on Mayne Island, in Saanich and across British Columbia.
Will the federal government step up to create a defined program for shovel-ready projects to make sure that the housing gets built for the people who need it?
