Business of Supply  Madam Chair, the total amount outside of the funds that the hon. member mentioned is $400 million as part of the northern housing strategy.

Business of Supply  Madam Chair, they have been available. It is a long-term commitment that flows through different streams. One is through the bilateral agreements. Another one is through the northern—

Business of Supply  Madam Chair, the hon. member is right. We have, of course, allocated significant resources that are making an impact on the ground, but there is more work to be done. We are committed to doing that work.

Business of Supply  Madam Chair, that is not fair. In Nunavut alone we have helped over 5,000 families and supported individuals to meet their housing needs. Yes, there is more work to be done, but to say that there has been no action—

Business of Supply  Madam Chair, the member and his party have opposed all our investments in affordable housing construction and repair, which are precisely to help families like the ones that he mentioned, but then he has the audacity to come to the House and pretend to care about this issue.

Business of Supply  Madam Chair, the hon. member was denigrating the national housing strategy. We have delivered almost half a million newly built or repaired units for Canadians and we are supporting, through the national housing strategy, almost two millions households. That party and the member can continue to denigrate those results, but we know that this program is working for Canadians, and we need to do more, of course.

Business of Supply  Madam Chair, that is not only inaccurate, but misleading. The hon. member is taking one program among many programs and pretending that is the only investment we have made in Niagara Region. Nothing could be further from the truth, and he knows that.

Business of Supply  Madam Chair, I would encourage the hon. member to learn more about the national housing strategy because he is isolating one program among many and then extrapolating that and saying those are the only investments we made in the Niagara region. That is inaccurate. I am happy to provide details to him on all the different programs in the national housing strategy.

Business of Supply  Madam Chair, what I know is that, through the rapid housing initiative, we have invested $900 million in Ontario, resulting in 2,800 deeply affordable permanent housing units, and that is just one program among many.

Business of Supply  Madam Chair, we do recognize that many northern communities face unique housing challenges. That is why, since 2015, we have invested close to $1.1 billion to help over 18,000 families in the north.

Business of Supply  Madam Chair, I am happy to provide detailed numbers on federal funding in Nunavut since 2015. The affordable housing innovation fund got $3.2 million. The national housing co-investment fund got $17 million. The rapid housing initiative got almost $5 million.

Business of Supply  Madam Chair, the Conservatives do not even believe in the right to housing.

Business of Supply  Madam Chair, the Conservatives did not invest in housing in the north.

Business of Supply  Madam Chair, the Conservatives released a housing plan with no mention of homelessness.

Business of Supply  Madam Chair, why does the hon. member not believe there is a federal leadership role in housing?
