Mr. Speaker, I want to thank my colleague for her co-operation during our work together on housing projects in my riding, in the Gaspé and on the Magdalen Islands.
I would like to ask her a question, because I think she has a good grasp of regional realities.
At the moment, construction costs are often 30% higher in the regions, but the funds provided by governments to build affordable housing make no allowance for this disparity. As a result, the same housing in the Gaspé has to cost 30% less to offset the additional costs.
What does my colleague think Build Canada Homes would have to do to ensure that regional realities will be taken into account?
