44th Parl. 1st Sess.

Madam Speaker, I completely agree with my colleague.
I want to thank the member for the conversations we have had and for his shared advocacy.
We need far more significant investment into a mix of community, public and co-op housing across the country. We know this has been done in the past. Back in the early eighties, I believe around 8% of newly constructed rental units were co-op housing, whereas now we are down to less than 1%. Therefore, we have that example of when the federal government stepped up to the pace and scale required. I look forward to working with the member and others in the House to move back toward the scale and pace we had in the past.
